Oh what I'd give for the Yaya of 5 years to just steamroller all over those rag barstewards.

Yeah, we’ve missed Yaya since he’s left..

Only if we win tomorrow. On top of that it's a derby where anything can happen. So, its natural people are worried about tomorrow. Tbh, I am more surprised at people who are overly confident.

Based on current and recent form of both clubs, its quite understandable to me. Yes, over 90 mins anything can happen, but we will be going there fully expecting a result

So excited for today!

City to win 4-0!!!!

Not sure about Gundogan playing tomorrow, he nullifies all our attacking threat if you ask me. I'd much rather we went with Foden next to Silva rather than Gundog, but hey what do I know.

Nothing :)

On the road to Manchester. It's a long way from Ballymagash to the swamp!

I fucking hope not,over think it and we'll get beat again,stick our best team out there and let them play their normal game

Therein lies the problem. What you, me or anyone else considers our best team is not necessarily what Pep and his assistants think. He/they has the full picture, so I never throw my toys out when a team is announced, as there will always be a good reason behind it.

We have from the penalty spot.

The Gimp stated in his press conference "They (City) will snap at your ankles and kick you, because there will be fouls no doubt about it"


Now the truth
Footstats

League table of fouls

United 395 3rd
City 291 20th

If those positions are correct it's just blown mind/shows up the bent refereeing of our games.

You can count on one hand games over a season where we are awarded more free kicks than whoever we play so our games must be officiated differently.

Hate this fixture more than any other, how anyone can enjoy derby games is beyond me, even 3-0 up and i expect the worst, lol, this goes tits up tonight im moving to syria as be better than living in Scouse and Rag infested Chester, be unbearable
