So first Premiership match of the season only2 and a half weeks away, Community Shield even sooner, what's the makeup of the first team for the Birmingham match? 
 
Hargreaves and Rafael not considered through injury:
 
GK: Van der Sar
RB: O'Shea
CD: Vidic
CD: Ferdinand
LB: Evra
RM: Valencia
CM: Carrick
CM: Fletcher
LM: Park
ST: Rooney
ST: Berbatov
 
Nani, Owen, Macheda, Fabio, Evans, Anderson and Foster on the bench.
 
Foster could push for a starting spot if he does well against Chelsea in the Community Shield, with Van der Sar playing only one match a week this season. Midweek game at Burnley the following Thursday morning.
 
Fabio is also a chance at RB, according to Sir Alex he is only known as a LB because Rafael has always played on the right.
 
And of course, there is always a chance Ferguson will let Owen loose on his first game at Old Trafford.
