United vs. City Pre Match Thread

It's 40 minutes to kick-off so we love everything and anyone to do with our wonderful Club. It's just the next few hours after that point where it gets a bit iffy. Eternal optimists.

No. Don't know what Navas has to do to be dropped. Much prefer Nasri there.

This game is made for navas today. Navas shouldn't be played against a defence who sits back because there is no space and he can't very a man, that's nasri territory. When you've got full backs who play ad wingers navas exposes them and opens up the game.

I agree. The issue isn't the selection of Navas (or Nasri for that matter.) The real question is the manager going to wait until 60-65 minutes before making a change if Navas or someone else isn't working out?

Navas can cause problems,he also works his nads off.

Also much, much better defensively. Tracks back in a way Nasri has never heard of.

I'd still rather have started with Nasri and bought Navas on later against tired legs. Nasri is much more of a goal threat too.

Still, decent line up. 1 up front; Milner starting and no Fernando. Can't complain.

When an attack breaks down ,as it inevitably will navas will chase back to counter the break away whereas Nasri will stand watching with his thumb up Yaya's arse.
Having said that its a bit like asking which do you prefer tapioca or semolina..

I feel sick. I'm pathetic.

No you're not.

1-0 Chelsea, right at the end

Don't think it matters anymore what Chelsea do they won't screw up and throw away the title this late in the season

Didn't know we were in for them. Can we afford them, what with FFP ;-)

 

[Malty]

Let's ave it !!! bricking it :-X

Another spanking of the RAG's while they are riding high and the pundits writing us off would be very satisfying.

 

[J_Bow]

A win today would top the 6-1 as they're feeling proper good about themselves right now and need putting back in their place.

I'd prefer to stick my thumb up yayas arse while nasri was watching to be honest

You could argue recent form aside that our team is better than the one that won 6-1 and their defence is weaker. We just need some self belief and no reason we can't do it again

 

[M3 Blue]

Plenty of the twats in Sports Direct in town earlier getting shirts to make sure they fit in at the match. Hope we smash them but I'm not that confident.

 

[PinkFinal]

Call me spineless but I'd take a draw now

 

[middleton___blue]

That slysports intro to the show wasnt biased at all was it? Twats.

The RAG's are still bitter/reeling from that 6-1.. they can't get over it xD that could be their undoing if they come at us with the crowd urging them to attack to get revenge..

We currently hold the Indian sign over them, so let's hope we can beat them again keep them down and looking up at us as the biggest team in Manchester.

 

[depps]

Had forgotten what pre-Derby nerves felt like... It's been a while! Come on you blues lets smash em!

 

[Sergi0 Na5r1]

Spineless! It's win or nothing! :)

 

[Malty]

Another 6-1 to City would do nicely but a win of any kind of what matters.

 

[Theengelbert]

No Di Maria for them
