Just for once this season wouldn't it be nice for United to turn on the style for the whole ninety minutes when we face AaB Aalborg in the Champions League on Tuesday? The only problem is United are currently about as predictable as stocks and shares in high-street banks.

At the weekend Ferguson benched Rooney as he made way for Carlos Tevez, who it has to be said didn't cover himself in glory while he was on the pitch (for around 70 minutes to be precise) - it wasn't the time for the Argentine's worst game of the season so far.

The team that faces AaB Aalborg is likely to include Wayne Rooney, Paul Scholes and possibly Owen Hargreaves at the expense of Anderson, Tevez and Fletcher.

If and it's a big if, United somehow manage to contrive to lose this match, it will set alarm bells ringing around Europe, it will be akin to the Hans Christian Anderson story of the Emperors New Clothes...
