City Vs United Pre Match Discussion Thread

[Le Havre Oswald]

As a Wolves fan I'd like to wish you the best of luck in this one. Really hope you win the title.

Your players and fans showed a lot of class at Molineux under difficult circumstances for us, especially with their tweets afterwards and the fans clapping the South Bank at Molineux.

Thanks a lot, it really added to the emotion of the day.

Once again, best of luck, and don't start Mario!

cheers fella. hope you make a quick return to the prem.

Re: Team For The Derby

Silva for me, even though nasri's in better form, they'll be scared shitless of what he can do. Think he'll want to go out and prove a point aswell.

Nasri holds it up and squares it 3 yards.

Silva opens defences.

There is no situation barring injury where nasri should be preferred

still on this despite nasri being arguably our best player for two straight months

Aguero&Tevez on start but if it doesn work Dzeko should have a chance to play because he always scores againt UTD !!!

Derbies are the worst thing in the world until after them and if we win.

For the love of god I hope they suffer a decline and we can have Chelsea and Arsenal as our rivals for a while, the nervousness will halve.

 

[OhManchester..]

need another atmosphere like hamburg! really need to get behind the lads and sing your hearts out for them! Come on city!!

 

[salfordpaul]

short of a reffing outrage we will win.....and comfortably...they are having a blip as we experienced at chrimbo....and we are unbeaten at home in the league...and we can hurt any team......we have talent throughout the squad......we have been the best team in the prem consistently all year!

bring it on

One things for sure. This is going to produce the most insane matchday thread ever.

Derek Whyte (ex-Celtic) soccer pundit based in Dubai has correctly predicted City wins in all of our most recent games. For this game, however, his confident prediction is City 1-2 United.

We cannot afford Dezko, Mario, AJ and either Silva/Nasri on the bench. Sadly, it seems that Edin may have missed his boat by not taking the chances he was offered in recent games. When he has come on as sub, he has looked like a 2010/11 version of Adebayor. Very little effort being demonstrated.

Keep Clichy tight on Valencia, especially when Rooney drops deep - he always moves in to the right hand side of the pitch and pings the ball out to Valencia, whom they like to keep in oceans of space. Valencia is their main danger man thereafter, with Rooney haring into the box for a whipped in cross.
But, I think we are going to have them turning and spinning so much to cope with our movement, they'll be dizzy.
We're going to be well up for it - Tevez especially - and we'll win convincingly. Newcastle's the harder game to win imho.

That seems to be their gameplan of late,keep valencia quiet and you keep them quiet tbh.

Ahh yes I remember - funnily enough, the 2012 Adebayor is exactly the same.
We won't be able to give the useless **** away when Spuds send him back. They did well to get half a season out of him.
