United away - pre-match thread

[schfc6]

Sorry mate and hate to say it but I feel Shaw will simply fly past Zab.

I wouldn't put Zaba anywhere near this fixture.

Sagna's hight, pace and defensive stability is a must.

For me.

..............Bravo.........
Sagna..Stones.Otamendi..Kolarov.
............Gundogan..................
....Fernandinho...Silva............
Sterling..................Nolito...
...........De Bruyne....,,..,,,,,,

Otamendi in if fresh enough.
Kolarov to add much needed height at the back post.
If not Gael in and Kolarov accross.

Gundogan, Fernandinho and Silva along with Stone and Otamendi would dominate possession.

Goal threat from Raheem, Nolito and De Bruyne along with late runs from Silva & Fernandinho.

Not a bad article and some interesting stats on City performances with and without Kun. They do get his transfer date wrong - odd since he scored perhaps the most famous goal in Premier League history when they still have him at Atletico!

Works for me

 

[yeah whatever !!]

Lots on here have their own views, some are great many are not so great, I'd just like us to rip them a new rusty bullet hole.

Thanks.

Shaw has to worry about one of Sane/Sterling/Navas

Here what you say but we have to assume that they will get opportunity to break and when they do, Zab would sadly be too slow.

 

[SWP's back]

no way kolarov can start at CB!! hes been decent granted but big nose would smash the fuck out of him!

If I had to put my life on one of them putting the other in the ground, I'd back the hard **** to do the nose every time.

Is Bravo available for selection? Not seen him in any of the training vids.

Whoever the rags play at full back will be under strict instructions to stay deep and deny Sterling and Nolito any space in behind.

Let's hope your right, but cannot see that for 90 mins though

Have paid much attention but would have though he isn't in training videos because he is on international duty with Chile. He should be available for selection.

I hope I'm wrong, if Sterling gets space in behind to run at Blind we'll absolutely batter the cunts.

He has not been away with Chile,given time to move i would think

He pulled out of international duty to give himself time to move house and settle in.

 

[Otamendi's Beard]

I think the only changes for this game will be at full back and Kelechi in for Kun.

It's exciting that we now have the option to bring on both Gundogan and Sane. They'll adapt very quickly considering they both came from German football and will be raring to make an impression.

Check this video out and just think of the impact that Sane could have. His pace is ridiculous and will scare the shit out of their defence - one-on-one with Blind would be hilarious to watch!

I take your point

 

[Danny_Johnson4]

i hate these cunts.

 

[ancoats]

funny thing is with all this aguero shit and the 3 match ban i was told today that aguero would not have played in the derby the injury he picked up and missing international break pep and city would have not took the chance with playing him hahahahahhahahhahaha

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Set pieces and crosses from open play are obviously the main worry. We are the smallest team in the league and almost every rag is a giant.
