Haaland hat trick please

Hope the robot has had his firmware updated

Must get a new spot or hole in his face every time he lies the stupid c###

That's the steroid abuse

Somewhat pathetically I suppose this sums up my thoughts too. I put it down to the dark days, growing up when we never seemed to win.

I feel nervous about today just because I want to win so much. We are by far the better team but in one off games it doesn't matter and there is always an official to intervene. We have the better players but they play on the break and we do have a tendancy to make our superiority pay against such teams. We need to take our chances and not concede with the first shot on target against us. Please.

I find myself going through phases of wanting to play them off the park, ala the first half of the home derby in the centurion season (masterful) to just wanting any old win no matter how scrappy. Come on City, get the job done.

Let's start as per the FA Cup and go one up after 13 seconds :)

Why wait so long ?

I've got a feeling that we're going to smash them. Absolutely smash them.

Might be a couple of VAR-bullshit moments/blips;

united penalty given by it for a blatant dive;
a late red card for somebody in blue for reacting to something a rag player, fueled by the anger of having his arse handed to him for 85mins, instigates (think Jesus and Ederson at the Gunners);

but today "could" be a real "THIS CITY IS OURS" sort of day IMO!

I reckon we could score absolutely LOADS, but I'm going for a 1-4 mauling.

Into these knobs from minute one especially Fernandes. Before anyone cries I guarantee the game plan they have is to kick us all over.

Arrogant twats need a drilling to realise we are still pride of Manchester!

 

[Crooked_rain]

I'll take a win in any manner

Really though, they're not very good. Even their wins this season are them scraping past teams that aren't very good at all, after going life and death with them.

They're nowhere close to us, but with it being a derby and them having officials willing to shaft us in plain sight, then we need a top performance.

As long as we turn up, then our quality should see us through.

I really hope we don’t allow the Wish version of Erling to get his first premier league goal in this game. Clean sheet an a 3-0 win would be lovely

 

[MadchesterCity]

Sounds like Wan-Bissaka is back for them, but Casemiro is a doubt.

That's a shame as he's a decent defender

Just beat the fuckers end of..
