It’s all about peaking at the right times in football, with the right amount of rest and rehab’ we’ll be ready for Saturday, possession based first 45 we’ll tire rags out. Don’t like the mind games if that’s what they are!
 
Watched their last few games
1 they have a very soft midfield that is bypassed by a few simple passes
2 lindelof is very average
3 they have moments but they cannot control and keep the ball
4 they have a very half arsed press
They will stop pressing as soon as you beat it once

So for me it’s a combination of keeping the ball off them to stop the counter but being brave and taking chances early
We can’t keep the ball meaninglessly if it’s 0-0
We need to get in front and then keep on them
They know we are superior, so if we get in front heads will go down
No silly red cards etc
Also this is not at old Trafford, which immediately means they are only 70% of the team they would be

Rather surprised that everyone is picking Walker ahead of Johnny Boy at right back despite the former having played umpteen 90 minutes on the trot and the latter being fully rested. I would prefer KW to be rested for the Inter game.

He’s getting a rest in that hes not playing in midweek, this week or next. He’ll be fine with that schedule. He has played a fair bit recently but he did spend most of March sitting on the bench.

Great post, but PGMOL disagrees with your final sentence.
 
I’d ordinarily be pretty confident about this game, however I can’t get past the fact that I think it will be a game decided by the officials. I still can’t get my head around them giving such a huge game, to that cnut that fucked us over at the swamp. Now call me a cynic, but it’s like it’s already been decided, before a ball has been kicked. Play to our strengths, and we absolutely leather this lot. We 100% have to take the game out of the refs hands. They’ll try every dark art in the book, and we have to be savvy to it. If I’m Pep, I’m showing “that” decision, and tent pegs little rallying cry on a loop. Though you’d hope the lads are more than up for this one. Really hope we smash the cnuts, but as I said. I’m more than concerned about the “officiating” of this one.
 
Pep should play this to the City players. Then again it might be better to let United play the occasion and we play the team.

”Let’s beat City and bring the Cup back to Old Toilet (Trafford)”

If we play our best they will hardly get a touch.They will need God on their side but, unfortunately for them, KDB plays for us.

One thing is we can't be wasteful in front of goal. We need to put them to the sword. Last thing we want is to be looking for a goal late on and the game at 0-0.

These jammy cunts are decent on the counter, especially with officials letting their players clearly interfere with play and not calling it offside.

We won't be getting a fair shake from the officials, so we'll have to take it out of their hands as much as possible.

They will be closed down and have nowhere to go on the break.

Relentless.

United will come out swinging and tire hitting fresh air.
 
Their manager was on the pitch with a microphone yesterday rallying the crowd up and his team. A rallying call to arms I’d say. Mentioning that his team would give it their all in trying to beat us. The gloves are well and truly off now boy blues

Yes we have to trust Pep on this - I'm sure he will have put a lot of thought into preparing them - not easy after our league finish - but he is the best and will bring out the best in a brilliant team.

If we take our chances which there will be many, and put half of them away it takes it out of the officials hands
