Recent reports from the Manchester United website have stated that both Ji-sung park and Michael Owen missed training ahead of Wednesday's clash with German outfit Wolfsburg. United's young guns Frederico Macheda and Danny Wellbeck have both been included in the champions league group stage squad this season and Sir Alex looks set to give them game-time if we can break through to the next stage quickly.

I'm looking forward to seeing Owen and Berba upfront leading the line, Berba's creativity and vision combined with Owen's decision making and guile will make it the perfect way to open up a tough defense. Rooney's brute force can be useful yet sometimes a more subtle touch is needed, with Carrick returning in midfield to partner Fletcher it looks promising for the long-term. With Anderson, Nani, Gibson and Possebon already looking class acts, Scholes is the prime example of a guiding light when these young players need it. His touch of class and overall character has been an example for anybody in the game to date.
