Man United (A) | Pre-Match Thread

[Gabriel]

Both managers appear to have picked more cautious elevens. Midfield will be contested and game might hinge on a moment of individual brilliance.

After posting I loved the line up I realised he’s not on the bench. That has soured the starting 11 for me!

Strange logic

 

[mat]

Sergio left out for tactical reasons.

That little Scamp Ole told Pep that Phil the Face was starting.

 

[kanovic]

The game hasn’t even started and people are moaning. I am out of here

You must be new here lol

 

[PrezIke]

Very worried Kun’s knee is gone after that surgery and this will not go away.

Assuming that’s the problem.

 

[mosssideblue]

Mahrez. Laughable. Sorry Pep u got it totally wrong.

Yawn

 

[FantasyIreland]

On form mahrez deserves his place but it’s time for him to step up and make an impact in a game like this or else it’s all just flat track bully which is not good enough

In better form than Sterling,so its odd you target Mahrez.

Did Pep say that?

Not even on the bench?

 

[The Black Shed]

Keep the ball, no rash tackles and clinical with our chances, that will be good enough.

Utd 0-2 City

 

[Cornish_Blue]

At least see if Mahrez has a shit game before slagging him off.

We know he has the talent, it’s just when he decides to display it. Time to step up and do it all the time, not just against Burnley.

It is called discussion team selection and involves one dipper

 

[SiMCFC]

Hopefully wear them down for 60 minutes then unleash Foden, Torres and Silva on them.

Just need to keep it tight and hope the front 3 keep composed and score when they get the chance rather than it taking us 8 attempts.

 

[RandomJ]

Why does Pep always turtle when it comes to the rags? What happened to City attacking and smashing them for 6? Their defence is shite we should be going for the throat not putting two defensive midfielders on.

Do not and I repeat this..Do not go onto the match day thread on Derby day. Blue moon has a bank of Samaritans on standby as a welfare protection of Mooners.

Clinical? Not a chance.

It isnt,as Pep has stated.

Lets not start silly rumours.

Kun and Ake rested.

Pep keeps repeating he wont be as rushed back as last time so there are no problems

 

[PhdWave]

Aguero's injury is really serious it seems...Pep doesn't wanna risk it

 

[Kippax77]

Foden for Sterling all day long.
Its about time Raz has a big game, especially with his record against the rags which amounts to not much.
Never scored against them for us or the dippers.
i suppose Foden or Torres can come on if our 2 wide men are not getting any joy.
But on a positive note lets fucking click into gear and smash the fuckers
