United (h) pre-match thread

Can the people who think our manager would prefer to lose explain the sense in that thinking please?

Looks like a Suicide Line Up. Demi and Navas aren't players I'd have picked but fingers crossed I guess.

No choice really with Demi but navas shouldn't be anywhere near the starting 11. Let's hope Manuel gets it right.

any streams????

Loads of complaining as usual. Let's see what gives and complain later. We're up against a team that look like they couldn't score in a brothel most of the time, and produced some God awful football recently. Let's hope they're true to from today and Sergio bags a few. But yeah, our defence is gash without Komps and we all know it. It just pains me that MDM is anywhere near our line up. He's not even worthy of a bench place. Expecting some calamity in that regard today, and some comedy defending.

To be honest I can't remember being less excited about a Derby as I am today. The last one at the swamp was pure dross, and I'd be pleasantly surprised if todays if much different. A bore draw seems the most likely outcome. Hope I'm wrong though.

MP's tendency to just go "Fuck it, let's go for it" is why our record vs the top 8 is so dire

Hopefully he gets lucky this time and we score an early one rather than concede an early one

If we grab one early we could destroy the cunts

I think some are of the opinion he doesn't give a flying fuck as opposed to actually wanting to lose,I don't agree with that viewpoint mind

Yes, but the clown is playing him in his strongest position and asking our best defender to mark their only real attacking threat. Clown.

Really though, I'd be happier with Fernando in for Jesus.

I think he got the Sagna/Demi pick right. No point weakening 2 positions.

 

[Keepingthefaithsince1976]

Why not put sagna as a CB and zaba as a rb? Martial vs dem isn't that great.. Plus a 2 man mid lol... Going to be a long day

Who knows? Maybe he wants cover at right back. He has to live or fall by the decisions.

 

[mancity1]

Sagna is starting???

Wrong position today.

 

[B\connellblue]

He's had since Tuesday to work on the centre back pairing,mind you he's had almost 3 years to sort the defense out and he's made it so much worse. Solution, offer them fuck all protection from midfield. As for outscoring the ****,s we'd have to score to do that . Fingers crossed it will be all right but I'm not overly confident. throw back to the old days this!
