Bizarre stuff.
Also the spell earlier this year, when Fergie changed the entire midfield for about 10 games in a row, and suddenly stopped picking Carrick when he was in the best form of his United career. That was weird, and didn't help.

The midfield worries me. particularly for the final. I don't think we have a clear idea of what our best combo is. Hopefully Hargeaves will resume his best position and that is the holding /defensive one with Carrick and Scholes doing their bit to get things going upfront. But really there has been so much chopping and changing that we really don't know what team will be put out on 21 May. It's not ideal.
