We’ll get fuck all off VAR from that cheat. I reckon our not getting a league pen against them since 2008 (I think) will continue - I wonder if there is any other “big six” side that has gone that with no league pen against one of the other six? It’s a bizarre stat, almost bent one might sayReferee: Michael Oliver.
Assistants: Stuart Burt, Simon Bennett. Fourth official: David Coote. VAR: Paul Tierney. Assistant VAR: Adrian Holmes.
Giggs scoring away from home?I think league cup semi first leg , January 2010, so not that recent . Carlos Tevez scored 2 , after Giggs opened the scoring
Hmmm, not sure about that, there seems to be a direct correlation between people predicting we will smash teams 4,5,6-0, and then city having a disappointing result....You do realize that posters' predictions have zero bearing on the actual results...
The rivalry is different for the players as they don’t see the rag cunts as rivals but just an irritant to swat away.does anyone feel like the derby has lost something in recent years on the pitch. we know the fans have their rivalry but i feel like on the pitch its become too nice. i've seen more fire when we've played teams like everton or atletico madrid compared to the derby in recent years
I’d be very happy to see that starting 11I think this’ll be a harder game than many anticipate, with United in decent form and coming straight after an international break.
Akanji has to start in Stones’ absence, rest of the team largely picks itself. Only question mark, I think, is whether Gundogan gets the nod in midfield with Bernardo on the right, or he plays Bernardo centrally with Grealish out wide. I’d probably go for the latter, but is a close call.
Ederson
Walker
Akanji
Dias
Cancelo
Rodri
Bernardo
De Bruyne
Grealish

Agreed, we will find this tough especially after an international breakPersonally, I don’t think we are playing that well currently and this game might be trickier than it should be. Any win will do me.
KDB looked absolutely shattered in these international games, most probably a non starter for the derby will be missed,will most probably come on if only neccessary Do we have to have an entire squad away on international duty
If we want to be in contention for major trophies deep into the season, then yes because that's the calibre of players we need.Do we have to have an entire squad away on international duty

Except that sometimes, the football gods do have a way of humbling some people who don't respect their opponents.You do realize that posters' predictions have zero bearing on the actual results...
