Lads 4-5-1 is only negative if the team makes or tactics make it negative. If it's used properly it's almost 4-3-3 when were attacking with Saha and the 2 wingers supporting, not forgetting Baines and Cahill who will probably play behind Saha tomorrow.
If we use the tactics properly it can still be attacking.
I think the team will be;
(what i think moyes will pick by the way)
Howard
Hibbert Jagielka Distin Baines
Drenthe Fellaini Neville Osman
Cahill
Saha
Subs
Mucha
Heitinga
Coleman(been poor lately)
Rodwell
Bilyaletdinov
Barkley/Straqualersui
Vellios
Think he will put Neville in midfield for his experience and leadership which is huge in derby games and not sure if he will put Straqualersui or Barkley on the bench
1-0 to the blues Baines

Should go for Michael owen in january and another flexible midfielder possibly, don't need young players just plays who can do the job for 2 or 3 years while the likes of Barkley Baxter Duffy etc develop!
Michael owen would be a great short term signing for the blues

I dont really care what formtion moyes picks for tomorrw aslong as we attack from the off and show that we want to win then im happy!
Same mate, dont care if it goes in off caras ass in the 85th minute, a win is a win

im almost certain moyes wont play 4 4 2, if cahiil is fit he will be the 5th midfielder behind saha, i would start drenthe, and that would leave the likes of billy, denis, vellious, osman, gauye, jonny, barkley on the bench

ED 1 what's your prediction for saturday??
Bez the blue {Ed001's Note - I never make predictions, far too superstitious to make them.}
If moyes starts with 4-5-1 then i can see us losing, he needs to start 4-4-2

I dont think 451 is a definte defeat! That formation can be a positive one if moyes pays cahill off the striker! We should boss the midfield! But if cahill is deployed as the striker then we may struggle! I could be wrong!
