We have 3 games a week from now on. Each player to get 2 starts plus an appearance from the bench every week, and all are happy with the game-time and less fatigue.

But if you check you'd see that Sterling is usually the least likely of the three to miss out. At least for now as his form has made him nigh on undroppable.
 
City 4 the rags 0

That's my prediction.

Nervous, but looking forward to this. Can never predict a derby but we're going into this with our best team compared to theirs in years.

I keep thinking 5-1...
 
There seems to be a lot of arrogance on this thread. We play the better brand of football and Utd have had an indifferent start to the season but they are an effective team and you dont go to Jve and win without being a well organised and strong team (the got a bit of luck but every team gets that at points).
Make no mistake they can hurt us and we need to be at the top of our game. The pace of Martial is a danger and as much as we deride Pogba, some of it deservedly (who will play make no mistake about it), he has the attributes to hurt us with late runs into the box and being decent in the air as well. Even int he also few games we have won handsomely we have given up chances to the likes of Burnely, Southampton and Shaktar that the likes of Martial and pogba as well as Sanchez will take advantage of.

I think its more dangerous for us if Lukaku doesn't play as well..they are more mobile without him and will try to get in behind us more.

Of course we can hurt them but PEG will see his team up to play very defensively and hope to get us with set plays and breakaways...any free kicks around the box or around the wide areas we need to be very cautious of.

My friend, rest easy :-)

Unless some sort of ridiculous aberration occurs - we will dominate the game, likely winning by 2 goals or so.

Meanwhile, ManU will park the bus and illustrate why anti-football is not only boring - it's not winning football.
