Derby Pre Match thread

[BoundedCascade]

Can't see us keeping a clean sheet. We have now gone 8 games since the last one and frankly we look like conceding every game. I think we will score too though so let's hope it's more than they do.

I think Kompany will start and I feel like he is going to have a massive game. Him and Mangala at the back. I feel Kompany leading the defense is exactly what we have been missing. When he was healthy him and Mangala looked like conceding a goal was farthest from our minds, without him it seems like every shot is a chance I agree.

Missing aguero hurts more this time as he usually scores against them

That's the spirit!

Ghosts of Derby's past mcfc history please

They are copying the sun,it's not happening

I think Utd will have the majority of possession but City will get the majority of Chances. 2-1 City.

My team:

---------------------Hart
Sagna----Kompany----Mangala-----Kolarov
-----------------Fernando
-----Navas-----Fernandinho---De Bruyne
---------------Bony------Sterling

Pellegrini will probably start Toure instead of Fernando

There are next to no decisions to make player wise as not many players available

But the big thing is whether City play on the counter or flood forward.

Toure for bony with the twins sitting in front of the back four. Allowing the full backs to get forward. The arse ripped em apart with quick mobile players.

Toure will play and rightly so, these big games are what he loves

 

[mosssideblue]

if mr p. doesn`t pick him, he never will be.

I take your point but not sure Rags away is where you should be getting back to match fitness. Anyway, we will know soon enough who is playing

 

[Wanchope n me Dickov]

What we missed v Spurs was leaders on the pitch. With Joe, Vinny and Zabba on the field our defence will have the stability we lacked at WHL.

Play the 2 ferns so we can push YAya forward to play behind KDB.

Do that and we win 3 nil. Though my guess is he will start with Bony and change it later so we will sneak a 2-1 win.

You don`t think Vinny should play then?

I don't think we should risk Silva or Kompany.

I don't think we will win tomorrow as we are not defending well enough but I'd like to think we can get a draw.

We should think long term though and not force players back.

This is set up badly. If scum win, they go top. If you think they were giddy the other week, well it will be a lot worse than that this time. I have dread.

 

[imtangledupinblue]

A stuffy 0-1 win will do me, rooney own goal or a dubious penalty.
Other than that we batter the bastards 0-4.

????!!!!!! Kompany played nearly an hour for Belgium last week. Where is the risk, exactly?

 

[pudge]

Ah, derby weekend. The only time I can't wait for a weekend to fuck off.

 

[kaz7]

I think we need a point to stay top? but we'll go to win
Hate derby day my stomach is like a washing machine
