It should be:
---------------Howard---------------
Neville------Yobo-----Jagielka----Lescott
-----------------Carsley---------------
Arteta-----------Gravesen--------Pienaar
-----------------Cahill------------------
-----------------Yakubu---------------
But it will be:
---------------Howard----------------
Hibbert------Yobo---Jagielka------Lescott
Arteta--------Neville----Carsley----Pienaar
----------------Cahill--------------------
------------------Yak--------------------
3-1 to United.
If it's going to be the formation you are suggest, I think different to you even if it first formation I wouldn't play Gravesen it would be more like this:-
---------------Howard---------------
Neville------Yobo-----Lescott----Valente
-----------------Jagielka---------------
Arteta-----------Carsley--------Pienaar
-----------------Cahill------------------
-----------------Yakubu---------------
and i would have been more favour the 2nd formation if the 1st one stay the same!
Oh come on, 3-1 even you think we did lose make it 2-1 man!
It should be:
---------------Howard---------------
Neville------Yobo-----Jagielka----Lescott
-----------------Carsley---------------
Arteta-----------Gravesen--------Pienaar
-----------------Cahill------------------
-----------------Yakubu---------------
3-1 to United.
I tell you what if we played this formation with Gravesen on his own in CM, it won't be 50% Lose, 30% win, 20% draw, it would become 80% lose & 20% draw, almost dead certain we did lose.
Gravesen in the middle on his own Nani or Carrick would go straight through to Carsley, the score would probably be 5-2 instead of 3-1!
