Wow. Been a long time since we played a derby and I feared it could get embarrassing (for us). Watching that starting XI and I cant see how these players are gonna prevent the rag clowns from creating loads just like every other team we face.

Zero belief today, but a small amount of hope we could just outscore them.
A win here could be some kind of turning point. Anything but a win and the small hope remaining that our players can turn this around this season is completely gone.

You’ve seen their line up right?

Head tells me that this will be an easy 3 points for Stretford Shitehawks.

Heart tells me we're gonna win 9 - 0 with a triple hat-trick for our Scandinavian God.

Defiance and blind faith for today lads and lasses - come on you beautiful Blues.

We’re down to the bare fucking bones lads and lasses.
Still enough quality if we just stop making stupid mistakes.
Unfortunately those who’ve kept making mistakes are all on the pitch today……
Our luck has to turn at some stage

Two teams woefully out of form but unfortunately for us they are strong where we are weak. They have decent wide men and our full backs are a real concern. They also have more goals throughout their side. We rely almost exclusively on Haaland so we need other players to step up.

We are a better side but in poor form so we need our lads to step up and take responsibility. We need big games from Haaland, Foden, KDB and Doku. Usually the sight of united brings out the best in Bernardo. We need to see some balls from Nunes if he wants to show he deserves a place in this team. Gvardiol needs to use his size better and Walker needs to go to the well and get us a performance from his better days.

Very tough game to call but if KDB and Haaland are in form it could be our day.

My under crackers won't be.

As long as the Catalan Keegan motivates our lads to score more that'll do me.
