Season 2008 - 2009 (part 2) - Say Goodbye to FA Cup

Whuahhhhhhhhh..............Semifinal FA semalam lawan Everton........super surprise with the starting line up :
- Ben Foster yang jaga gawang
- Si kembar Da Silva, Rafael di right back dan Fabio di left back
- The twin tower Rio and Vida di centre back
- Anderson and Gibson di central midfield
- Ji-Sung di left wing, Welbeck di right wing
- Tevez and Kiko di depan
Hanya
Anderson, Rio dan Vida yang tersisa dari starting line up di Dragao. Sedangkan Everton full-team minus Arteta yang lagi cedera.

Berikut pernyataan Sir Alex dari www.manutd.com
"We had two teams in mind after Wednesday’s win in Portugal, with one leaving out two or three players but having watched the game yesterday (Chelsea's semi-final versus Arsenal), I thought the pitch looked heavy and dead," Sir Alex told MUTV.

"What I couldn’t afford was extra-time with my strongest team, with our programme coming up. We’ve got games on Wednesday, Saturday, Wednesday, Saturday lunch-time (at Middlesbrough) and then Tuesday. I had to make a change some time.

"Knowing the young players' temperament, their quality and their energy, I thought it was the right thing to do. Obviously I’m going to have some critics but I think the fans know this club is built on young players getting an opportunity.

"We wanted to give them an opportunity today. I know that in whatever games we’ve got in the run-in, we can play the likes of Macheda, Welbeck and Rafael without any question at all."


Di menit2 awal MU kesulitan menguasai bola tapi lama lama makin bagus. Overall pertandingan yang bagus buat youngster meski hasilnya seri lanjut perpanjangan waktu dan kalah di adu penalti......( duhhh Berba rekkk....penaltinya jelek banget dan digagalkan Tim Howard).

Next....sudah banyak pertandingan menanti. Yap, padatnya jadwal yang membuat Sir Alex banyak menurunkan the youngster.

Jadwal selanjutnya....
22/4 Portsmouth - 25/4 Tottenham (EPL) - 29//4 Arsenal (UCL) - 2/5 Boro (EPL) - 5/5 Arsenal - (UCL)

(to be continued)
