Derby post match thread 10/09/2016

pretty accurate to be honest apart from he first 7-8 mins of the second half when they had a couple of nice moves....pep changed it and then they had no answer and it was our football against their hoof up the pitch and kick anything that moves

It must be hard for Mourinho having to settle for a Rooney when he had the luxury of a Hazard less than 2 years ago...
 
Yes I have been driving up and down Chester road shouting city out of the window at all passing rags. one told me to fuckoff back to the emptihad.
Can't argue there, it's fucking empty today.
 
He didn't mention individuals, just said that a couple of players weren't up to scratch in the first half. Seeing as he hooked Lingard and Mikhitaryan at HT, it wasn't hard to figure out that he meant those 2 and Shrek.
Ah right. Proper Mourinho then. What a ****.
 
Good to see them playing the United way - long ball after long ball upto the big men.
Pogba - the new Di Maria; soon to be moved on. What an absolute waste of money. Totally overshadowed and out of his depth.
What a magnificent performance - and whilst Bravo is copping some flak for their goal, that was an error which we can put down to poor communication with Stones. If it keeps happening, I'll worry, but, there was just as much of a chance that Hart of Caballero would have spilled it in a similar way, as neither of them were much better with high balls.
So, so much to be positive about. Thank you Pep. That first half was fantastic. So much more to come. The City is ours; the bragging rights are ours.
Oh happy day!
 
They were bossed at home we owned them at the swamp, they were really lucky with the goal, god I hate them and I'm pissed and happy as fuck, proud to be a blue and have a rag brother on law.omg happy days.
 
I'm knackered,i felt like a ran a marathon during the game
The difference pep has made has been amazing and up against the new stoke we were awesome,very happy
 
See Sky showing the 2 penalty claims for Utd yet nothing shown for our blatent one on Otta by Baily
 
Surprising decision that by Chelsea.

I think KDB has been pretty impressive for you.

very impressive...14 goals in his first season that was cut short by a bad injury........he has had a slow start to this season but his fitness levels have been building and it looks like he is about there now
 
I thought bringing Nacho off was a disaster, although Ferna was the right player to bring on. Each to their own.

Fernando needed to come on at that point, the only options to come off were Kev or Kelechi and given how Kev played it was never going to be him. kelechi was the only option and the right decision. You could say from a personal performance perspective he could of taken off Sterling/Nolito but that messes with the entire setup and ruins our entire tactical plan, take one of them off, you've either pushed Kev there where he's nowhere near effective aand has too much of a tendency to cut in when they were under instructions to stay wide or you've lost a wide man completely and we play with a lopsided team which then releases either of their fullbacks to bomb on constantly and provide a barrage of dangerous balls into the box.

For all their aerial power and long balls they put very few good crosses into the box today and the main reason was because our wide players were not allowing their fullbacks to push forwardd

Sterling was fading at that point and Nacho was coming into the game, I would have taken Sterling off, pushed Silva right and left Nacho in the hole. He fixed it by bringing on Sane though, who held the ball up very well.
