Team against United

Re: United Vs City Pre Match discussion Thread

I found only a day ago I wrote on this thread saying how I thought we would loose and look a shadow of true selves. Somehow this morning I feel somewhat confidant that if we go their with intent to beat them we will and we'll bring down that fortress and put them in our shadow at their own home.

Come on city, I shall be watching you drunk surrounded by rags at the pub :D

I worry about Nani. Hope we stick Milner & De Jong on him.

Re: United Vs City Pre Match discussion Thread

Main question is whether Aguero is fit to start. We can't take any risks with Tevez out so my team would be. If Aguero is 100% then I'd start Aguero.

I'd have Kolarov over Clichy for Kolarov's defensive strength

---------------Hart-------------
Richard-Kompany-Lescott-Kolarov
-------------De Jong-----------
------Milner---Barry---Toure----
--------------Silva--------------
--------------Dzeko-------------

Prediction: 1-1

The Guardian have an article series about the derby. Comparisons of the two.

Manchester City have only won once at Old Trafford since 1974 - a 2-1 victory for Sven-Goran Eriksson's side in 2008.

Lets hope today we can add another.

I feel sick as a dog

Never been this nervous before any game.

Why do we put ourselves through this for enjoyment?

Same, i can't stomach a fully English feeling like this :(

Re: I feel sick as a dog

i'm fine, I fully expect Clattenburg to cheat us out of the game with the help of the Rags so if we win I'll be delirious and if we lose well I can't say I'd be surprised with the deck stacked the way it is.

Re: United Vs City Pre Match discussion Thread

the only question is how far the ref will be prepared to cheat. if he doesn't we will win 3-0.

ok 3-1 with the customary dodgy pen.
