We’ll be running round Old Trafford with twenty….. hopefully, a win against Aston Villa tonight and United will be crowned Champions, with four games to spare. 

United couldn’t ask for much easier opponents, facing a Villa side  that have won just four away games all season and are currently sitting one place above the relegation zone.

It would be foolish to think the game is a foregone conclusion as any team struggling against relegation will always offer a threat- Wigan last season for example.

Winning the title is one thing, but winning it in style would make the night one to remember and Sir Alex will want to give the fan’s something special to remember  so I fully expect a strong side.

With Robin Van Persie back among the goals, Shinji Kagawa beginning to shine and even Antonio Valencia starting to look similar to the player of old, the Reds have the tools to really take it to Villa.

Predicted line up.

DDG, Rafael, Nemanja Vidic, Rio Ferdinand, Patrice Evra, Michael Carrick, Tom Cleverley,    Antonio Valencia, Danny Welbeck, Shinji Kagawa, Robin Van Persie.

Do you agree? Will United go all out attack? Could Wayne Rooney find himself on the bench? Feel free to let us know your suggestions.

    Totally agree with the line up. 100% how I was seeing it for tonights game. Welbeck possibly starting wide left though so that Kagawa can play behind RVP.

    Nine of those are nailed on barring injury. Wellbeck or Chicharito and Cleverley or Rooney alongside Carrick look like the only scope for manoeuvre. Having said that Fergie nearly always comes up with something unexpected.
    The game couldn’t be better set up. We can win in style but a draw would not be a disaster so the players should be relaxed but relishing the opportunity to show they deserve to be seen as outstanding champions.
    I have a feeling it could be a great night for everyone except Villa!

    Really want to see Kagawa build on his recent good form tonight in behind RVP and want to see Rooney in centre mid with Carrick
