Sadly, I really don't see how he does. For one he is most likely gonna start midweek and play at least 75 minutes.I can't remember the last time we won a big game against a supposed top four/five rival for a while?
It's been the difference between us winning leagues and not in recent years.
United have every reason to feel confident because they have adapted their set up to combat a system which does not change under Pep.
We will always control the ball, but whether our big players turn up is another matter.
Hope Foden gets to start rather than one of Rodri or Gundo.
There is self delusion and then there are the facts. I mostly operate in the latter realm.Mate if utd won 100 World cups they would still be fuckin shite.
A horrible set of cunts, from their fans to their players to their Woodward and their Gills.
If I hear their name I instantly think SHITE.
Anybody bigging these mardarses up after years of them laughing and belittling us needs a fuckin word with themselves.
Imo they always put a better performance when Ole's job is under threatThink the CL game will be a big tell of how our game will go. If Leipzig win comfortably then I expect we might batter them.
Wonder of Nagelsmann and Pep may have a phone call about it this week, swap some tactics.
Good thing it currently isn't. :)Imo they always put a better performance when Ole's job is under threat
Unless they lose to Leipzig and head to Europa. ;)Good thing it currently isn't. :)
Anyone who thinks they are shit is either clueless or wearing heavy blue fingers.
They are NOT shit. They are very good and have a few (mostly attacking) unique talents that can bother anyone.
Fernades, Rashford, Cavani, and Greenwood are all supremely talented in one respect or the other. And that doesn't even include the flashy french duo of Pogba and Martial. They are all very talented and speedy. And are extremely dangerous on the counter.
I wouldnt have sterling anyhere near the left side. Bassaka has owned him every time. Id play Foden or Torres left forward.
Of course. Have you not seen him running round the pitch with size 12 clown boots on clowning around with his buddy, Hamburgler?Yeah, Gundo's only helped us win 2 titles, 3 league cups and the FA cup but some of our so called supporters think he's a clown !
Excellent point gents. Sterling has been owned when up against him, so trying the Foden option on the left makes a lot of sense.Nail on head Sterling done fuck all against Wan but Pep will still play him you watch
Wan Basaka is a very very good fullback so regardless of who plays for us they will f8nd it difficultNail on head Sterling done fuck all against Wan but Pep will still play him you watch
He'l be first name on the team sheet knowing pep.Nail on head Sterling done fuck all against Wan but Pep will still play him you watch

true, but we KNOW sterling cant beat him and that was when Sterling was on form. He tries pace and that just plays right in to Wan Bissakas hands. He loves a foot race. So try something different, Foden and Torres have guile. Putting Sterling up against him and expecting a different outcome is daft.Wan Basaka is a very very good fullback so regardless of who plays for us they will f8nd it difficult
Wouldn’t piss on them if they were on fire and I fucking despise everything about them . They only ever win against us because we can’t take our chances and let them in. If we miss gilt edged chances to hen we don’t deserve to win.I think they're shite and I'm neither clueless or have blue fingers.
They have some individual qualities but they are not a good team.
The paper boy hasn't got a clue what he's doing and is as surprised as the next man when they get a result.
Too many individual egos in their ranks to muster any serious threat of winning the league.
One or two bad results and the in-house fighting begins and the little prick at the helm gets his marching orders.
But apart from that they'll do just fine. The rag bastards.
Correct!Wouldn’t piss on them if they were on fire and I fucking despise everything about them . They only ever win against us because we can’t take our chances and let them in. If we miss gilt edged chances to hen we don’t deserve to win.
Remember the CL game at Anfield? He actually showed Salah inside onto his left foot on several occasionsI think playing Laporte in left back could help our defence so much, especially in this game
But i don't no if he can adapt himself with tactical responsibilities of a LB in team's formation
Can I quote you on this " very very good" ???Wan Basaka is a very very good fullback so regardless of who plays for us they will f8nd it difficult
I agree mate . Was reading a bit about Brian clough and he used to just pick his team a straight 442 and they would go out and just play to there strengths . Too many fancy formations about now and pep should be saying in the dressing room two words “Manchester United “ and that should be enough to put it n the performance. Whoever thinks this game is just another match should not be at our club it’s as simple as that .Correct!
Pep sometimes shows them way to much respect. He should treat them like points fodder and stop over thinking it.
If they set up against us like a midtable team we should be treating them like a midtable team and give them a proper slapping.
