It would be nice to get the result wrapped up early so we could take a few off and keep them fresh for the Liverpool game. My thought's exactly. |

From the BBC web site
Manchester United v FC Copenhagen (1945 BST)
Manchester United and Celtic are first and second in Group F and with both teams at home on Tuesday that should be the way it stays after the matches.
Sir Alex Ferguson's team host FC Copenhagen while the Bhoys entertain Benfica and neither visiting side has yet scored in this season's tournament.
And they may be hard pushed to break their ducks either side of the border.
United and Celtic top their leagues and both won convincingly on the road at the weekend having gone a goal down.
Manchester United
Manchester United's next opponents
FC Copenhagen
Venue: Old Trafford
Match preview
Who are they?: A 14-year-old club that has won five domestic titles in that time. FC Copenhagen are the third Danish club to reach the group stages after Aalborg and Brondby.
Recent form: At present they top of the Danish Superliga by a point from Odense and a 2-0 weekend win over Randers made it four victories in a row in domestic action.
European record: Bits and pieces in the Cup Winners' Cup and the Uefa Cup before this, their first time through to the Champions League group stages.
How did they get here?: They won the league last season and then saw off Finnish side MyPa before beating Ajax 2-0 away to go through to the group stages 3-2 on aggregate.
Ones to watch: The Danish capital resembles a Premiership old people's home for Scandinavian players. Former Everton midfielder Tobias Linderoth is skipper and Jesper Gronkjaer, once of Chelsea and Birmingham, and former Aston Villa striker Marcus Allback are also in the ranks. However, Allback is the only one of the trio to have travelled. Gronkjaer's injured and Linderoth is at home waiting for his wife to give birth.
Did you know?: FC Copenhagen boss and former Wimbledon player Stale Solkbakken survived a heart attack after collapsing during a training session in March 2001 when he was a player with the club.
They say: "Our aim is to win but, if they play to their best and we don't, I accept we could be in trouble."
Stale Solkbakken, FC Copenhagen coach

We should rip em apart. Gotta be 3 or 4 goals in this match. Nobody can live with Giggs at the moment and Rooney will be raring to go after Saturday. Celtic should win against Benfica as well. Although Van Helsing the vampire slayer of Transilvania is a doubt for the match.  |
