We have a few problems-the volcano is a big one. The Daily Mail reports that Masch will once again partner Pique in the centre with puyol on the left. Abidal wont be risked.

Whaat? Abidal not playing, thats bs... why would Pep let him play in the last 2 games just to let him warm the bench at Wembley. Alves-Puyol-Pique-Abidal will start, for me there is no doubt.

Mascherano is too short to play at CB.

Yeah, he'll probably have a torrid time defending tall strikers like Hernández and Rooney.

Oh wait....



Seriously, Mascherano is good enough to play at CB. He might not be the tallest out there, but he's very good in the challenge, and he was quite good against Real imo.

That can be a problem, but it isn't Mascherano who will defend those, I guess. I think Piqué, Busquets or Abidal, should he play, will defend Rio and Vidic. Pep ain't crazy, he won't let Mascherano mark the most dangerous aerial threats of Man Utd.

Mascherano did really well at cb in 3 matches against real, what makes you think he can't cope with united? i'd prefer abidal too but i'm not sure if hes 100% ready fr a game as big as this.
