Can be the only team...


But its pep with his mad ideas so who knows.!

 

[1978 & still here]

Getting beat tonight could be part of peps derby master plan.

 

[blue whippet]

I have gone for a draw now, more out of hope than anything else.

 

[bellsouth]

I know the team now pep will pick after watching that and if stones is fit..

Wouldn’t start with Grealish but then Foden has been awful too, maybe just go with the 10

That’s the worry mate, Pep seems determined to fuck around like he has a problem at the moment?

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Hopefully it’s De Bruyne, Rodri and Bernardo in midfield but I fear Gundogan will start.

Our defence worries me. Ake isn’t a left back and Cancelo is infuriating to say the least.

I’d love to see Rico start but I imagine Walker will get the nod to counter their pace on the break.

Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a draw.

Jack has been better than Phil and with the rest of the first team around him can hopefully be better

He said he had a crazy plan!

Hope not. Otherwise it means inverted FBs. Don't think I've ever seen him play Lewis as a traditional RB.

I would take a draw now if Arse draw or lose

 

[PragueBlue]

Play the team that stuffed them last time.

 

[blue for life]

I think we are due a draw in the derby aren’t we?

I hope not either. Has to be Kyle Walker marking Rashford.

 

[christened at st marks]

Stop fuckin about

 

[Man-chester copperpot]

Practice fucking shooting!
Keep an eye on Rashford between 85-95mins the tw@t
Job done!

 

[Gundogan's Moustache]

We need Lewis but I don’t think it’s fair on him to be thrown in with the current shambles for this game.

 

[waspish]

Think Lewis could get the nod over Walker, but other than that think you’re probably right. Maybe Gundogan in midfield with Bernardo playing out wide instead of Grealish.

Yeah agree depends if Pep is worried about the pace of Rashford and why I put Walker in

 

[Trojan1962]

Walker every time against Rashford for me.
