They are slightly strong in left so maybe Walker starts and someone with great workrate will occupy our right hand side. Cancelo at LB
 
Honestly, I think a lot of the Shaw praise this season is because

a) He's English
b) He was shite for several years and now he's not shite anymore

He's been good but for me he hasn't been great. I think Zinchenko is a superior player even though neither are defensive specialists.
Also the fact he cost £30M SIX years ago - what would that be now?
 
I wish the media would stop going on about our unbeaten run, wins in the trot, who's going to stop us etc.
It's the bloody kiss of death especially on derby day
 
Certainty can't see us losing.

We have looked a bit leggy in the last two, even with rotation, and maybe given up a couple more looks at our goals than of recent weeks?

I think Bailly makes them a tad stronger at the back and they might try and throw a curve ball by having James on to increase their counter pace.

If Cavani isn't starting, then would expect to see Rashford - Greenwood - James.

Hopefully Eddie cleans up some of his distribution and decision making after last two matches.

Press their backline and an early goal will have me feeling confident.
 
This is the first derby that I am not a bag of nerves for at all, and not just saying because of watching on the telly.

The gulf in quality this season between us and them is so obvious to see (even to the rags) that a loss is not that relevant in our grand scheme of things in playing modern and precision football.

I want us to smash them and embarass them and put the final egg on their not-in-my-lifetime face. The tables have been turned. Let's see how their tourists, glory hunters and jonny-come-latelys remain faithful in the doldrums of no longer being relevant for the title, as how they condescended with their divine right on other clubs.

I believe if we have no absolute fear and give them zero respect today, and why should we, we will run rings around them and score on freewill. They are afraid of us. And we should not give them any reprieve to think that they even have a whiff of a chance.

Wankers c'mon blues

Derby day. A friendly reminder. Money can buy you a bed but not sleep, money can buy you a clock but no time, money can buy you a book but not knowledge, money can buy you a position but not respect, money can buy you medicine but not good health, money can buy you blood but not life, money can buy you sex but not love, money can even buy you a football club but it won't make you Manchester United.
