Sir Alex Ferguson may have rested a raft of players for the midweek dead rubber against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, but he will name a full strength team to face West Ham on Sunday.
The Reds are looking to celebrate before lifting the Premiership trophy with victory over the Hammers, but more than that Sir Alex does not want to give an unfair advantage to any team in the relegation fight by fielding a weakened team.
"We have to respect the position of the other teams at the bottom," he says. "Paul Jewell has done a fantastic job at Wigan, as has Neil Warnock at Sheffield United. So I cannot be putting a team on the pitch that disrespects those teams.
"We also have our own reputation to think about, so although I am a great friend of Alan Curbishley, he understands the position I am in and knows I will be playing my strongest team on Sunday."
Against Chelsea the United manager made eight changes to the side that beat Manchester City 1-0, handing a first league starts to Kieran Lee and Chris Eagles, and a club debut to Dong Fangzhuo.
Sir Alex looks set to recall a host of regular first-team players for the match against the Hammers, who are in a three-way battle with Sheffield United and Wigan Athletic to avoid relegation.
CurbishleyÂ’s men need either a point on Sunday, or the Blades to win or draw against Wigan at Bramall Lane to guarantee their survival. But it may come down to goal difference if Wigan win and the Hammers are defeated, which would put all three clubs level on 38 points.
definitely SAF will field a strong team , he have to as its the final game and the trophy ceremony will be given out after the end of the game, and also because this game also determines whos gonna play in the championship league next season.
