Obertan named in Utd starting XI
Bursaspor v Manchester United
Gabriel Obertan was the surprise starter for Manchester United as they looked to reach the key 10-point mark by winning their Champions League encounter with Bursaspor in Turkey tonight.
The 21-year-old Frenchman has started just one game so far this season but with Javier Hernandez left on the bench, he was expected to supply the width along with Nani as Dimitar Berbatov was deployed on his own up front.
As expected, Paul Scholes returned in midfield to face a side who have lost all three Group C games on their debut in the competition.
Bursaspor: Ivankov, Tandogan, Erdogan, Ibrahim Ozturk, Wederson, Bahadir, Svensson, Ergic, Sen, Insua, Yildirim. Subs: Ozkan, Has, Ipek, Keceli, Nunez, Odabasi, Stepanov.
Man Utd: Van der Sar, Rafael Da Silva, Smalling, Vidic, Evra, Scholes, Carrick, Nani, Fletcher, Obertan, Berbatov. Subs: Kuszczak, Brown, Park, Hernandez, Fabio Da Silva, O’Shea, Bebe.
Referee: Wolfgang Stark (Germany)
