While Barcelona formation appears to be set, Manchester United's formation appears to be up for debate. Will United play two up front, will Giggs make the starting 11. So here is what I would do if I was Sir Alex
Van de Sar
Rafeal Vidic Rio Evra
Valencia Carrick Fletcher  Park
Rooney
Hernandez
By going with this formation, Carrick and Fletcher could be supported in the middle by Park Ji Sung if its need and Rooney could then move out the wing.
