Manchester Utd (A) Pre Match Thread

[Stoned Rose]

Napoli are the best, and most intense pressing side in Europe, so I'm not sure you did watch the matches or you'd remember they tried their best to go at us full tilt until they realised they were just wasting their energy. United could have 13 players and they wouldn't press as well as Napoli.

Say's who?

Far beyond words this little belter.

the referee needs to be strong....

Love the sentiment, but it's Michael Oliver we are talking about here.

Proper brexit fixture this. I’d replace Fernandinho with Foden for this game, just to have that british grits in midfield that will give us extra energy. Should probably also recall Agnus Gunn from loan to replace Eddie Sun for this game, just to have that extra proper brexit leadership in defence. Having British genes for this game are vital and game-changer. Our genes goes all the way back to WW2 and D-day, and that proper british grit is what I think will edge the game for us. I want to see some proper brexit leadership out there on sunday. 2-1 to the blues imo, no fancy scoreline, just a proper hard brexit performance that will increase the gap to 11 points.

The rags will press but for only a short time. With thanks to 2 defensive fuckups from the arse tether got lucky.
They then reverted to what they know . They cannot match us but they can beat us just because they are the stuffiest twats going.

I'm going away with work on the Monday following the derby. I have to set off at 0330 to get to Heathrow to catch a flight to the States. Sadly, this means no drinking before, during or after the game. The only bonus is that if we don't get a result I shall be out of the country for the ensuing media shit storm and general Rag bullshit.

That said, I believe we are capable of beating them by a sizeable margin. It all depends if Moureen has the bottle to attack, or just park the bus, then dive and cheat his way to a scrappy draw.

40 games unbeaten at home ? who was the last team to beat them again ?

Pogba " i hope some of their players get injured". Thanks for that, no Pep talk needed for the derby our players will be well motivated to win it.

If Ballo had said that prior to the sick swan Gill would’ve had him banned from English football for, at least, 5 years.

What sort of surprise would you spring up for the derby?

I would play Jesus alongside De Bruyne instead of Silva. Only bring Silva in and push Jesus up as normal in the last 20 mins.
