Jesus over Aguero for the Derby Ric? You're a brave man.

Think Jesus will play tonight and Aguero Sunday personally.

Reckon they'll start Zlatan too. Maybe for Lingard.

A young Utd fan by the name of Sam Berkley 14 died tragically in Hyde..there having a minutes applause in the 7th minute..all city/utd fans join together for this boy.

Yeah, I'm torn really. Would be happy for either Aguero or Jesus to start, tbh. I guess we'll find out who's starting on Sunday when the teams are announced tonight.

So, let me get this straight: you’re suggesting they may employ the dark art of deception in attempt to win?

And a lot of cheating!

0dds are

38% United
33% City
29% Draw

So 62% we don't lose. They need the win a lot more than we do too.

1-1 for me.

Can see them going in with a back 5 again and playing kickaku and martial up top on the break

Rotational fouling will be the plan. Matic, Rojo, Lingard will all take yellows

Add their ten free hits first and that’s a lot of fouls.

I reckon we will see Kun start the game, set-up the same in midfield to allow us to control the game and put the pressure on the backline. Aguero loves playing against united so i expect him to be fully up for it and get on the score sheet on sunday. Jesus will come on second half when their defenders legs are knackered, dependant on the scoreline i think we could see both aguero and jesus on at the same time to start pulling their defenders all over the pitch towards the latter stages of the match

Whatever the situation we have great options : )

I have a wicked plan to thwart their height advantage. Play Yaya & Mangala as centre backs. Job sorted.
