It's called hoax news injury.
I hope so. I give us half a chance if Pogba plays. We are fecked if not.damn, I didnt notice the starting time. The biggest game of the season for my club in the derby against Rennes at the same time as the Manchester Derby...
I am not worried, mourinho is a big game manager, weather he plays defensively or not, when pushed against the wall he delivers, so I am hopeful.Herrera Fred
Rashford Mata Martial
Sanchez
I'd like this but there's no chance. we'll get fellaini and matic together making us the slowest midfield and unable to get out of our half.Feck, just realised. If we win, Liverpool are top of the league.
He’s great at putting a plan in place but I have little faith in the quality of our players to execute.
So be it then.
Don't think fellani will start, he will come in later I think,
Oh noooo, let's lose the game then!
ffs
Just have to beat them then too.
Meh, it's only November. I have complete faith in City to beat them in the long run.
Because that's what I said. No need to be a dick.Oh noooo, let's lose the game then! ffs
Had Matic and Herrera behind Pogba with a front three of Mata Sanchez and Martial
If Pogba really isn't playing there is no need for three defensive MF so I'd simply drop Lingard in his place.
In the derby the form goes out of the window, we can handle pressure we have seen it before, in contrast if we attack, we don't know what we can get as rarely city gets attacked with other teams as they have the ball all the time.
It will be a tight encounter.
There is no need to use that word, maybe I misunderstud you, sorry if I did, it sounded like you don't want us to win, because it will make Liverpool champions, the word "feck" gave me that impression.
And there is no way in this lifetime for me to be a dick.
Not ideal but we'll see how true it is!
I believe he will start but let's see. He should alwAys be an impact player nothing more.
Sammy Lee, is going to Sammy Lee but given the choice I think Pep would go DDG as it’s not like his feet are terrible and he has shown he can play as a sweeper keeper and build play with Spain.
It’s not like Edersons ball skills outshine DDG by so much that it counteracts the importance of DDG’s brilliance.
The joke is on you really. Anybody that laughs at a comment like that is a fool. Jose beat the likes of Barcelona with fecking Inter with a well executed plan. Even Fergie couldn't do that in any final against Barca.
So to suggest that he can't put together a plan is just unbelievably foolish.87th minute winner off fellaini’s elbow
Barney Ronay likened the midfield battle to a platoon of cyber men running around after kittens
Thank you.
Our manager has a consistent track record of putting a plan in place to win big games.
Many of our players have consistent track records of failing to perform to the expected standard.Depay delight
Former United player Memphis Depay posted this on social media this morning following a wonderful performance for Lyon against Guingamp yesterday:
They score goal in first half, we score 3 in the second and win. Easy.
Pep and money kicks water bottle, gets send off, goes mad in post match interview. Gets deported.
Commentators and pundits cry.
Other media people too, int. break coming, nothing to write about.
And we take our shirts off and show undershirt with "Manchester is red" or "we did it on derby day".
Oh, and Fernandinho makes one tackle, and gets red card.
Too much?
So if we win, does that mean that we do have good players?
It will mean they have performed well. I think they need to consistently do that before we start calling them good players. We are 8th in the league at the moment, which pretty much sums up the quality we have.
What exactly does it sum up? That we have the 8th best squad of players?So either we beat or draw with City and give Liverpool an edge in the title race,or we lose to City. Talk about an unpleasant situation.Anyone else nervous?!The worst thing if we are beaten is that the City/Pep w@nkath0n juggernaut will roll on unabated in the press and all the bad publicity totally papered over.
Come on lads!
I disagree. I think we have a good squad. Chelsea have had a good squad for years but have been in a similar position.We'll get hammered if Jose comes up with his usual park the bus tactics.Anyone else nervous?!
Focused on other things at the moment but as soon as I sit down to watch the match I'll be nervous. It's a hell of a lot easier going to the ground to watch games where you can sing, chant and try to do your bit to push the team on. But watching these games on TV is torture at times.Is it confirmed Pogba is out injured or maybe mind games by Jose?
No, not too much, we must aspire to be like that other team of no hopers who beat them 3-2 last year.Anyone else nervous?!
Who cares if Liverpool go top now, they’re not winning it anyway.
I don't think he will today, but that's not necessarily true, though they probably would find a way through eventually. We could get hammered going on the offensive, which I think we'll try to do. Any team that has a go at City tend to have more joy, but they're a good team and a loss is always a possibility.
1st option for me every single day of the week. Title races are never settled and won in November.- Status
