Can see united going

henderson
Bissaka bailly maguire shaw
Fred mctominay matic
Fernandes Martial Rashford

united’s best chance is making the game ugly and disrupting our rhythm.

Solskjaer is a poor manager but he’ll know he can’t rely on ratface to work hard enough in a midfield 3

 

[big gaz]

Mainly because of our seemingly endless search for a decent left back rather than Shaw being particularly good.

No our chef at the training ground is pissed off at wasting good food at the end of the day.

Nah they'll go 5 at the back.

As I see it City win 8-1 (o.g. From Eddy, smashes ball up field in the last minute hits rag’s bar and loops back over his head a la Big Joe)

Three rag players still get in Sloth Crookes team of the week.

 

[Vicmeldrew666]

No they will go all out for 20 mins, then whether they score or not, go 10 at the back.

I loved that boozer when I live in Failsworth me and my mate big Bob Long were in most Sunday diner or a two gallon run on a week day, loved Mr Holts bitter.

First went in the Railway with an old workmate, Trevor Felix-Thomas who introduced me to holts . Used to park his artic truck practically outside the front door , never drank holts bitter before and it took a few pints to get the taste but definitely warmed to it . The tap room nearly erupted when they put 5 pence on a pint, think it took to over a pound a pint

I like it but I’d have Walker on our right, up against rashford who’s actually v.fast and needs managing by a fast & strong player. And I’d have Cancelo on our left because he’s got the beating of AWB and can add plenty in midfield too.
Having said that, Pep would probably put Laporte out as left CM, as he does when Cancelo plays left back, and that would break up the rock solid Stones & Dias partnership.
Maybe Zinchenko after all eh?

1-0 wins this game , it will be attack versus defence with the odd counter , play ruby , john , zinchy or jo and ky , that will contain them , put sergio on later to terrorise them and pull them about

 

[SWPISHOME]

I think the rags will go to a back five in this game they'll park the bus and want to counter. He has been bigging up Dan James in recent weeks so he could start.

Henderson

Wan Bissaka
Bailly
Maguire
Lindelof
Shaw

Fred
McTominay
Fernandes

James
Rashford

 

[Withnail]

I would really love to see us go for it from the off on Sunday eg like the last 15 mins against Wolves. However, I think Pep will be conscious of the Rags pace on the counter and will adopt a slightly more cautious approach.

I hope Pep will go with the energy and youth of Bernardo and Foden.

Ederson
Walker Stones Dias Cancelo
Gundogan Rodri Bernardo
Sterling Jesus Foden

I’d put Cancelo on the right and have Zinchenko on the left, aside from that i would be happy with the rest of your team selection

 

[SuperKevinHorlock]

Will be attack v defence with the rags getting set pieces whenever near or in our box! Complacency and Taylor are my major concerns!

 

[NorCalBlue]

cheers hope you finish above your neighbours this season

Hope they finish above our neighbours too!

I thought the same but Rashford is apparently playing through a shoulder injury, Walker is pretty good with the shoulder barges..

 

[BLUEMATT23]

Unreal that Taylor is the ref
Isn't he a united fan?

Walker has too much head fuck to be risked against the rags for me, hence Cancelo Zinchenko

Cancelo handled Adama well, and he can handle Rashford as well.

Moving Cancelo to the left, means you will get 70% of his quality instead of the 100% he offers on the right.

Yeah, but he claims to be an Altrincham fan. Shouldn't be any greater manchester refs in the PL full stop with the 2 clubs involved.

Gladbach would probably disagree.
