Gary Neville would probably conceede goals intentionally so he can make our manager look better.

Losing to Comeback Winning!
The current side already lost to many rubbish teams.

Good chance, yes.
Even if fitness is low.

Scholes and Giggs to make easy passes/assists.
Saha making easy good movements to beat our pitiful defense.
Score. Score.
O'Shea magic footwork.
Score.

Giggs and Irwin will also have a fun go at Young/Dalot.

Both Smith (workrate and challenges) and Saha (instinctual movements and flair) will disrupt our defense's structure.. oh wait, the current side don't have structure.

Giggs-Butt-Scholes to play simple proper football keeping possession around, with the two FBs Irwin and GNev joining in. Saha is also good at holding when the midfield need to use him. Smith and O'shea will keep it simple making safe passes.

Our forwards forgot how to score nowadays, easy to defend.
Giggs-Butt-Scholes have awesome workrate to help defense, as does Smith, with Saha up for counter.
The team also play with 5 defenders.. sort of, O'Shea likely playing #6 or the team play with WB system.

Wes Brown is 39, but from that picture it looks as if he has barely aged from his early 20's, the lucky sod.

They'd play the eleven vs Cardiff off the park :lol:

Honestly it would look like professional athletes vs masters football. Except the wrong way round.

Seemingly, they would eat them alive.

Prime for prime I would take Neville, Irwin, Brown, Butt, Scholes, Giggs and Saha in a heartbeat to walk into our current side.
Prime ? Those players in their 35s would be good enough for our current side.
