I'd be happy with either.

*I would have Iheanacho starting but it will 100% not be happening so there's no point in even listing him.

That works better for me.
 
Would be interesting if Pellers started Kelechi. Sky will no doubt have a big montage and discussion planned for Martial pre game but imagine if Kelechi started and outperformed him and scored. All focus would have to shift to our bright young striker instead.

United will have most possession so De bruyne feeding sterling and navas on the flanks and kelechi up top on the counter could be devastating.
 
God I hate those bastards: Satan's team, just look at the badge. C'MON CITY, it's good versus evil as always. Let's stuff them.We're better than them in so many ways including on the pitch. The time for debate is over, let's just do them. 3-2 for the Blues. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

I admire the confidence! I don't really see the rationale for us twating them without Silva and Aguero, but I bloody hope you're right!

Because they're shit and really the only reason people worry about them now is because of the press around them which puts teams at a mental disadvantage.

I wouldn't have a single player of theirs in our first team based on actual talent.

We'll twat them, easy night lads.
 
While we're suffering from key players missing, we do have the power to hit them hard.
Aguero, Silva missing would be a massive blow ordinarily, but with the acquisitions of KDB and Sterling, we now have something new to worry opposition defences with, genuine pace on both flanks, a bevy of dead ball specialists in KDB, Yaya, and Kolarov, and both KDB and Yaya can split defences wide open with killer balls, and as long as we revert to the lone striker option ( we are away, so I shou think it will be so) the team will play with the usual swagger, and with Vinny hopefully reclaiming his captaincy, we will be more secure at the back.
No need to go gung-ho, keep it tight and hit them on the break.
2-0 City
 
Break out the rum ration. Get the tobacco out. Share the good time girls around but make sure they are off the ship before the tide changes. Tomorrow we go to war. Tomorrow we are victorious.

C'MON CITY .
 
feels like tomorrow is the fight against everything from Blatter down, the establishment just won't be fair and let us march off as the best team, have to scupper us with linesman/referees etc.

Just the past couple of months of everything coming out, I really want that lot to get their comeuppance and the bricks to fall down, but I fear we're in the eye of this storm so the backlash against us is just going to be stronger, and the protectionism tomorrow will be absolutely brutal.

I hope we annihilate them, but I fear we will be absolutely screwed over to protect the status quo.
 
Just glad Young is out there major threat last season and the one who turned it around for them last season when we 1 up we take our chances we will win 5-2
 
Apart from the usual pre Derby nerves that I think we all suffer from, I don't think we have much to worry about bar shit/biased refereeing. I fully expect Fernandinho and Yaya to boss their old men, Kev, Raheem and Navas to run their back 4 ragged and if they get over the half way line, Quim Mangler and Ota or VK to batter the fuck out of them.
 
Hate Derby days.

Nervous wreck before it and either elated or completely despondent afterwards.

Come on City! Please, please, please batter the cunts.
