  Squad sheets: Southampton v Manchester United

   

  Southampton have lost both their matches since returning to the Premier League and face another difficult assignment, even if Manchester United are still troubled by various injury issues. Sir Alex Ferguson's side have looked vulnerable at times in defence during their opening two games, which should at least give the home side some encouragement after last week's defeat to Wigan Athletic. Gastón Ramírez was not signed in time to figure but Emmanuel Mayuka, the new Zambian striker, stands by to make his debut at some point.

  carrick was the guy who passed the ball to toure  and he scored that beat united in the fa cup semi finals. it was his careless pass that enabled city to beat united and went on to win the fa cup. I was wondering if united had beaten city and won the fa cup instead, will city have the winning mentality of last season?
