United (A) - Sun 6th Apr, 16:30 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

[blue b4 the moon]

Peps hoping for control of the ball and he has pace on the bench if needed. Hopefully our ageing midfield can turn back the clock and Foden finds last season's form.

It'd be great if we could pass & be fluid.....

The other thing is those fucking 2 yards passes between Kova & Gundog which go nowhere and invite pressure.

Hopefully we're in panic mode on here and Pep's not gone all brain fart on us.

United players and fans will be so happy that Savinho and Doku are not playing.

 

[Bluewars II]

If we're saying farewell to KDB based on this season's performances then we should be saying farewell to baldy too, been dropping stinkers all season.

 

[come-on-barney]

Bobb not on the bench.

Off to Liverpool

 

[ShaunMCFC]

3-1 City

Fucking hell, I'd rather have Jack at right-back than Nunes! <<loud exhale>>

Trying to think positive thoughts whilst reading the midfield selection, today sponsored by Acorn Stairlifts.
"I got a baaaaaaaaaad feeling about this"


Come on CITY!
Up and at 'em!
Fast start, bish-bosh
before they know what's hit them 2-0 up after about 15mins
then kill the fucking thing and pass the shit out of it.

YAWN me a win lads!

 

[Roachy]

Well Pep's picked the team so it's up to the players to do a job now. Will be tough if that midfield doesn't retain possession.

 

[skillman]

Christ. Zero creativity out wide there. Gonna be a looooooong 90 minutes.

 

[bluetonium]

Line up is pretty much what I expected pep to go with. We're going for control. We're betting on a fired up Kevin. If it clicks it could be a lovely afternoon.

 

[noseve]

We can still win the league as it stands...

Would you like a job as my accountant :-)

Is that your own head or have you borrowed it off an idiot ?

 

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

Got 0 - 0 written all over this

 

[come-on-barney]

Lose this today with that lineup, and questions need to be asked. Ridiculous lineup.

 

[Dipsis_LTU_MC]

O'Reilly starting. Great news.

 

[Ken92]

No not that crap no winger line-up again. Zero speed and threat.

Kev and Gundo, possibly Bernardo know it's their last derby. It's a gamble but he's hoping they turn back the clock. Plenty of options on the bench if it isn't working.

Not so sure, our wing play is inconsistent and only ever works when Haaland can get to it. On top of that Marmoush has shown a number of times that he’s great when played through the middle.

 

[stan bowles]

Ageing line up, very warm day...we've got the Rags right where we want them.

 

[mosssideblue]

Fookin stupid by pep!
Kev & Gundy playing wtf!
I’m not convinced with Nunes either.

A risk that was not needed by pep.

Start a pep out thread then as you and a few familiar posters obviously think he’s shite and you all know better

 

[Columbia]

Back to walking football in the middle today. Playing the same hand again and again in big games…Hopefully it works this time…
