FFS - Eric Bailley, really? The selection process should have been limited to players who had played at least 20 games for the club.

COME ON YOU FUCKING MIGHTY BLUES!!!!!!!!!​

+1

I fookin hate the derby but we have shown now that this is not a one-off , flukey victory if we win
If we lose ..it actually early days this season.......

Actually think that City will find more consistent form than the rags this season as I believe tat Pep is a better coach than Maureen...

We'll see

Whatever..and much as i'd love to tw@t the plastics tomorrow, the season long form counts for more

 

[iwasthere1968]

I'm off to bed, not going to lose sleep over those twunts . Over the years they've thrown everything they can at us and we taken it , and still here .
Sleep well lads , fuck em .

Oh and yes SCUM .....

 

[crazyg]

Is there a game on tomorrow?

 

[Armaan]

I'm so nervous, fucks sake hate derbies.

One area that concerns me is our leadership. Hart, Zabs, Vinny, Yaya, Aguero - these are all big characters as well as players.

Not sure what we've got if we go behind.

Hate these games, hate them.

Stones, Kolarov, Fernandinho, Silva, De Bruyne all capable of taking the game by its bollocks in their own ways.

With Pep on the sideline we don't need a 'leader' in the traditional sense. He's building a unified team to play a system.

Think positive man!

Surely Maureen is not daft enough to play Fellani tomorrow ?? Silva will be licking his lips in anticipation

If Fellaini plays, it'll be to have him out there to boot the likes of Silva.

He'll undoubtedly get away with 3 or 4 cynical challenges before getting booked.

They will rotate this across a number of their players. I'm convinced they will target Stones and Merlin.

Win at all costs.

The united way.

5/2 at the bookies to win tommorow.Easy money

 

[aguero93:20]

Watched both Derbys last season and the 4-2 to the rags season before at the swamp in my new local and am supposed to be there tomorrow but am feeling it's jinxed do I find a different pub ????
Help me out blues !!!!!

Rag.

I'm reasonably calm about the game tomorrow. Nothing is ever going to compare to the nerves I felt before the 2012 derby, or the FA Cup semi-final in 2011.

 

[csit17]

Just finished watching the Pep documentary and its hammered home the confidence that I had before watching it, the genius that we have in the dugout tomorrow will find a way to smash through PEGs buses, coaches, planes, tanks, walls or whatever the fuck he wants to erect.
We're gonna destroy these rag cunts and I can't Fucking wait COME ONNNN

Im not as nervous as usual. We are the better footballing team. If they win it will be due to a sucker punch after a parking the bus or a twatty ref decision.

Yup, they used to do it to SWP - 3 or 4 players taking it in turns to rough him up, and after about 8 fouls one would receive a yellow.

It's inevitable they'll do the same tomorrow - just under different shithouse management.

Even if we lost tomorrow, it'd feel more like a temporary setback rather than a crushing blow. The future is looking extremely positive, and we've still got Kompany, Gundogan, Sane and Jesus to come into the side.

Same here,although in part due to this Derby being so early in the season,will not really impact either way if we win or lose regards the league,but will give a psychological boost to whoever wins,having said that feel it's going to end up a draw,but of course hoping we win..

That derby where they pointedly targeted Wright-Phillips was one of the most cynical, snide things I've ever seen in a football game.
