United away - pre-match thread

[SPIDERBOY]

When did we last get one there? Last one I instantly remember is Keith Curle but we must have had one since then?

No idea mate.

 

[mrtwiceaseason]

From Sundays game is it mad to play nasri up top instead of kun? Then him kdb and Siva take turns coming through the middle,leaving utds centre backs unsure who to mark ? Too big a game for kelchi for me

 

[Stevieatlasblue]

For me the danger man is ibra. He's scored too many goals from set pieces..put a tall dude on him and win that first ball.

We certainly haven't scored a pen there since that game and even though my memory is going I'm sure I would've remembered if we'd missed one!

Get Kompany fit for this so he can smash their lumps to pieces when they start sending it long.

Gundogan to start for me also. Nolito up tops with De bruyne moving wide. Sane on the bench for the last 20 with NAsri to cause havoc.

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

I think we will smash the shit with or without kun,plenty of class in that team.

That is 2 subs we will have to make as neither will last 90 mins,way to risky,You don't muck about with defenders during the game unless you really have 2

 

[HelloCity]

If Aguero is suspended I'd play without a recognised striker.

Sterling, De Bruyne, Nolito, Silva, Sane, Fernandinho.

 

[Alex B]

I fucking pray that

I meant start Kompany. He should be fit and has 2 weeks now to prepare. Sane and Nasri on the bench to come on later in the game.

I don't think that would be a good idea from a defensive point of view, KdB isn't the greatest defensively, I'd much rather have Nolito wide as he's looked very good at helping out the full back so far.

I meant vinny,he has been out so long and is not match fit,remember when he came back against the dippers and had a mare

Good point tbf. Reckon Pep may be tempted by Navas? Depends what he wants to start out with. Sane back too and will be raring to go. Gonna be very interesting!

If Kun is banned I did wonder if he might put Navas on the right and Sterling in the middle, mainly to use Navas's work-rate to limit the crosses coming into our box.

 

[sir baconface]

Football-wise we're on a different planet but, same as when we play Stoke, I always worry about park-the-bus-and hoof-it teams.

↑↑ A shameless plug for the scum's new legal team: Buss, Parker & Hoofitt.

You said Kompany and Gundogan?

I see nolito or nacho thro the middle maybe even kdb!

 

[Alex B]

You said Kompany and Gundogan?

Gundogan would come in for Kun when he gets banned. Unfortunately its gonna happen. One of Nolito or KDB to play the false 9.

 

[BringBackSwales]

The options are so much more varied, not just a more varied squad, but a manager who has tactics and preaches movement, interchange and fluidity. Bogbrush head won't know where to put his elbows

after watching them batter a Hull side at home who didnt even have the bollocks to try and get out of their own half, i can only see the 3 points going to manure. Rashford is amazing and i havent seen such talent since Macheda burst onto the scene.

On a serious note though, i dont think there is as much pressure on us to win this game. The pressure will all be on them and maureen and pogback.
And as my mate said "city havent played a tidy side yet so dont get too excited" ....

Wont be easy with 670million fans on their side but im quietly confident of the the 3 points.

It is 6.5 billion fans, not 670, ffs.
