United away - pre-match thread

[marco]

correct, i remember barca toying with these b*stards at Wembley in the champs league final a few years ago , they had small mobile players like iniesta,messi,mascherano , they made the Rags look like clowns for 90 minutes , it was so one sided it was embarrassing , hopefully dinho.merlin,KDB,and the hated one ,can give them , (as shrek would say) "a football lesson"

we will deal with any aerial threats but as one poster points out we will have to watch out in the box and not give any stupid pens away, i do feel good with this one and gone for 0-4 fingers crossed

precisely why it will not be 4-0 , they will score , penalty , deflected free-kick , goalmouth scramble or an overhead shinner , will take a nice 3-1 win and PEG sent to the stands for head butting Pep.

The rags will not beat us by playing football , they will draw free kicks from us for set pieces and launch it into the box , and they will try and kick us off the park , because in a football sense they cannot live with us , their prematch comments about this being a "war" sums up what they are about. If we keep our heads and concentrate on the football there is only one winner , if we get into a "war" we are reliant on Clattenturd to be impartial against the media / premiership darlings , and that will never happen

100% correct. Mourinho knows that his teams will never be able to outperform Guardiola's teams so he will try to play dirty,defensive football to stop of the flow

Rashford better than our Kelechi? what's this guy smoking? Kelechi will show the world on Sat why he's more than capable of replacing Sergio mark my words.

Because he's english and english players are apparently much better than these crappy foreigners who can't handle the intensity of the british game blah blah blah.

Exactly. How many games has Kelechi had to come of the bench to make an impact? plenty. How many of those games were crucial winners for us? plenty. I'm really excited by this guy and even though its a big blow with Sergio's ban, this is his time to shine now. Not even Bony can stand in his way now. He's the man for the future. Come on City!

My only predictions following full time.

Manchester United win = wall to wall media coverage hailing Mourinho's new dynasty which will dominate domestic football for a decade.

Draw or Manchester City win = wall to wall media coverage of Liverpool' shiny new stand which will mean they can compete commercially hailing a new Klopp dynasty which will dominate domestic football for a decade.

---------------------Bravo------------------
--------- Otamendi------Stones-----------
---Sagna----------Ferna--------Clichy----
-----------Bruyne----------Silva----------
Sterling------------------------------Nolito
-------------------Sane----------------------

I'm almost certain this is the line-up. Only possible changes i see are Kola for either Otamendi or Clichy. Zabba possibly for Sagna. With a tiny possibility of Kelechi for Sane.

You're not that certain then:)

Anyone know how Clattenburg has approached the new laws on holding/shirt grabbing? He given any pens?

If they are just going to launch stuff in box, this could be vital. Thankfully it aint Dean.

Probably waiting for tomorrow

I do not want to read the last pages - has somebody posted the video of Xabi Alonso trying to predict the tactics Guardiola and Jose will take?
