The Manchester Derby Pre Match Discussion Thread

[adr2.8i]

Below is a facebook message sent to me by a united "friend" after our european exploits this season.......this is why WE HAVE too beat them.......if we dont then i will have to hide from the streets for a few months.
i get these messages constantly, and not just from rags, its liverpool,chelsea,arsenal,spurs fans........they all hate us.



"Man City FC" ha ha haha ha ha Lol... That plastic club of make believe Disney standards that has no soul or work ethic from a youth system has been officially classed as THE WORST EVER CHAMPIONS LEAGUE TEAM IN HISTORY. And that's from the most expensive group of players EVER in the history of football ha ha ha ha ha Lol

Anyone go on Football365?

Just read the comments section on Fergie saying that a win against us would be massive (the bellends have got me to hate that word :( ). It is... eye-opening.

City 6/1 to win the derby...

This week presents City fans with the game they have relished all season as near neighbours Manchester United visit the Etihad Stadium. Both sides currently occupy the top two places in the league table and 3 points for City would definitely be a timely Christmas Present as they look to retain their Premier League crown.

City are currently priced at 5/4 or 13/10 with the competition but if you are a NEW CUSTOMER, Paddy Power are offering you a whopping 6/1 on Roberto Mancini's men getting the victory. This offer will not be available anywhere else so if you haven't already signed up at Paddy Power, now is the time.

***THIS PROMOTION EXPIRES AT 13.30 ON SUNDAY 9TH OF DECEMBER***

Not a bad offer that! Shame I'm already a customer.

Provided Balo and Yaya put in the required shifts when we are not in possession this is a solid line up. I have a feeling Mancini will start Balotelli for this one and my only other thought is that he might pair him with Edin as opposed to Sergio.

Well if mancini does this he should be sacked on the spot. Tevez and Kun should be the only option.

 

[Dzeko's Right Boot]

Start Kun in this form? I'd rather not. Tevez on his own, or Balo to partner him if we need someone to.

Solskjaer's turn. <a class="postlink" href="http://uk.soccerway.com/news/2012/December/06/solskjaer-talks-up-united-supremacy/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://uk.soccerway.com/news/2012/Decem ... supremacy/</a>

What a pathetic, classless club they are.

Our best team undoubtedly is this

Hart
Zabba Kompany Nastacic Clichy
Milner Yaya Barry
Silva Aguero Balo

I am not saying Balo is better than Tevez or Edin but to my mind we play better with Nasri and Tevez out the team.

Balotelli offers something in these big games.

It is a nice blend of hard work. Milner and Barry, power Yaya and Balo, and technique Silva and Kun.

 

[cyprustavern]

Match their workrate and we should win......as always lets hope the ref doesnt spoil the game.

"I think Man United will relish those games, going there knowing it's not a decider."

Ummmmmmmm, the last derby would've decided the title had they won. Stupid rag prick

Let's take a minute to admire how well the kid has done in his short time at City and what a very good purchase he was by Bobby and team.

Slightly off piste I know.


Derbys are very unpredictable :/
