A "Goal UK" exclusive says:
Dropped: Hernandez, Brown, O’Shea, Obertan
In: Berbatov, Giggs, Nani (depending on late fitness)
Rags have a nearly full strength squad, just like us (if Tevez and Ade aren't injured).
We've seen it all before, pre-derby mind-games and bluff mean that it's more of a guessing game than anything else. No fear though as RM will be used to dealing with the cold war psychology of a fixture like this so no worries 'cos he'll have his own tricks, slanted press releases, targetted rumours and misleading suggestions on the go.
I'd love to think that I could out-guess the pair of 'em but I know full well that I'd stand no chance so I'm waiting to see who runs out tonight.
I actually hope that giggles and nanny do play 'cos I don't want that purple faced old tw@t to have any excuses after the fact!
Re AJ? He's brilliant but I'd rather se him come into the game after 60 minutes when the derby frenzy's produced tired legs all round so that he can use his speed to rip through 'em and take a 2-0 lead on to a 7-0 finish to put us above the swampies on goal difference . . . sorry to say but I won't be entirely happy with a simple win - I want to humiliate them.
Not bitter - just hate them and take great pleasure in seeing their glory hunting support drop away as wins can no longer be guaranteed.
I always wear the shirt for games but for my part I'll be wearing more colours than ever tonight - full 'f#ck you' regalia of hat, scarf, shirt, lucky blue socks etc. and I'll be bathing my vocal chords in whisky and beer all afternoon in preparation . . preparation is all - COME ON YOU BLUES!!!
