Worried?

Not worried at all. The ONLY thing that will concern me will be their constant diving in and around the area. Eventually Bennet will have to give them their obligatory 'controversial penalty'. We all know it's inevitable and we're all expecting it, but it doesn't stop any team playing against the rags from coming away from a game with them feeling cheated by their disgucting underhanded tactics.

You can put your mortgage on it that the tyrant will have ordered his players to go for the penalty at ANY cost, and in that cauldron of an atmosphere Bennet will feel intimidated by the rags if he doesn't give in.
 
I am so fucking worried I don't even want to watch the game. Would do anything to fast forward until Saturday evening now.

Absolutely shitting myself to be honest!

Snap, i keep turning SSN on and seeing the build up to the game is just building the feeling inside me. There's a voice in my head saying "Please City don't let that bunch of twats win."
 
Worried that Mancini will drop either Johnson or Bellers and play Barry, De Jong & Vieira in the middle.
 
I've never liked derbies. The build up turns me into a nervous wreck. The press go into overdrive and publish more and more pro rag pieces, so over the years, I've stopped reading them.

Then you get that p1ss sodden, alcoholic, bitter, unsporting, despicable turd and all the 'mind games' (actually, it's just bullying; mind games suggests a level of intelligence and cunning that man just has not got).

Then you get those idiotic sheep, this year in GAY, crowing before a ball's kicked and every year I can't help biting.

I hate derbies.

And I feel even more nervous now Spurs beat Arsenal and are only 1 point behind us.

Hate them, hate them.

But then, when we win the game (as we have done quite regularly in recent history, something their lot fail to see) it's such a good feeling, total ecstasy, as someone once sang.

But the pressure in the build up and all that? No, I just don't like derbies.
 
Hell yeah, couldn't sleep last night, I always worry about derby days but I booked today off, the nature of my job means someone will be stupid at me and I can only take so much stupid. The last pre derby I worked I ended up a basket case.

All the raggy ones I've spoken to are predicting an easy win for us which as already noted just makes it worse its days like this I wish we had a cat!

This I really hope he doesnt give United too much respect like in the semis and raelly goes for it like we have been playing of late!
 
My worries are that they will dominate the midfield and we'll have long spells without decent possession, if we can stop that then we have a good chance.

I just watched the goals we conceded in the second leg (CC) and the first and second goals came about from us not clearing the ball properly and a united player laying it back for Scholes/Carrick to finish, I hope we are more clued up going into this one.

We have a stronger team than for the Carling Cup games and can hurt them, but we're going to have to be at our best and play with a high tempo. It'll be interesting to see what team and tactics Mancini goes for.
 
I'm extremely worried, obviously, but just hope Mancini goes for it like he did against Burnley and Brum.

The rags have been there and done it though and are often best when they've been written off, so we need to be wary, without giving them too much respect. After all, we're at home, and last couple of games have scored goals, so fingers crossed.

And make sure Nedum plays!!!!!
 
personally i don't think mancini will go for it as some suggest. the rags will have 5 in midfield and we could get overrun. i sadly think he will drop ned and play zabaleta at right back and play p v in midfield and put johnson on the bench. not sure that it the right way to go but that is my guess on the team. hope i am wrong but doubt it. i am already nervous about it. oh for the days we were shit and happy just to put in an adequate performance.
