United manager Simon Grayson will be leaving his team selection until late for Tuesday's Carling Cup third round clash against Man United at Elland Road (7.45pm).

The only absentee from the weekend win against Bristol City will be Paddy Kisnorbo, who faces a one-match suspension, but the United manager says he is considering all available options.

"There will be one enforced changed with Paddy being out," said the boss. "In terms of which way we will go though I haven't decided fully. There's a lot of options and permutations.

"All the players are desperate to play as you would expect, but I'd be lying if I said team selection won't be made without having an eye on our game at Brighton on Friday.

"It's a tough one because they all want to play and you want to reward players with games like this, but equally we have had other players who have played in the Carling Cup games this season.

"I'll have a look at things and I will put out a team that I expect to perform, and to give us the best possible chance of winning the game."

New signing Mika Vayrynen could come into contention for a first appearance while striker Luciano Becchio could make his first start of the season. Defensively, Leigh  Bromby could return in place of Kisnorbo.

While the United boss has his own dilemma, he says he won't be trying to second guess his opposite number's team selection.

The Reds travelled to Benfica last midweek and beat Chelsea 3-1 at Old Trafford in the Premier League on Sunday.

Sir Alex Ferguson has said Frenchman Paul Pogba is likely to feature while their squad could include the likes of Dimitar Berbatov, Michael Owen, Ryan Giggs, and Michael Carrick.

"I went to watch them on Sunday, but I wasn't reading too much into what I saw because the team is likely to be different," said Grayson.

"They have a fantastic squad with so many options and I don't think anyone can second guess what team Sir Alex will put out.

"What you can guarantee is that it will be a strong side, whoever plays, and Sir Alex will want to win the game."
