Manchester United (h) pre-match thread

Some will never be convinced.

Strange innit

How are we expecting them to line-up?

De Gea
Young
Smalling
Lindelof
Shaw
Matic
Herrera
Pogba
Mata
Martial
Sanchez

How can you not pick Bog Brush head. Aren’t they the usual tactics against us? Just play the biggest midfielders and try to kick the shit out of us, which undoubtedly Taylor will allow.

Stop Silva, stop Man City? What it is like to face Pep Guardiola's side

Every big game we play, there is a BBC article about how they can stop City and what they need to do. Every time.

Pogba’s a doubt apparently after missing training today.

Pogba’s a doubt apparently after missing training today.

Mind games? Might be trying to lull us into a false sense of security by telling us this bad news. (For us)

 

[Ric]

Mind games?

Probably. They’ve got a few willing lackeys in the press who’d be happy to plant the story. Fully expect him to play.

“Play” is a strong word.

I fully suspect he will be “on the pitch at kickoff”.

So here we are again. I am nervous already. We know they will up their game as this is their cup final these days. How times have changed. We have the players and firepower as long as we take our chances we shall win and win confortably. If we dont take those chances then we could be trouble as they are capable or hitting us on the break or with a long ball to the spitting thug Fellaini. Just want to say Mahrez has impressed me lots. Hope he plays tomorrow. Pep news conference very funny.

If that isn't an over the top reaction I don't know what is. He isn't a disappointment but on the day he got it wrong, like he has in other games. No biggie is it.

You talking about over the top? One of the biggest drama queens in here

I hope City are on the case Saturday night Sunday morning for MIB dirty tricks. Expect graffiti about Arabs, oil and their usual bile.
