Manchester United 0:0 Manchester City

Murder on Zidanes Floor · Dec 12, 2020

Lack of width and Bruno to be marked out of the game by Rodri. City goals to come from their fullback width.

You want the next guy because you believe that everything will suddenly be great. When it's not you'll be stamping your feet for the next one because that one will definitely sort everything. Rinse and repeat.

if the owners don’t improve there won’t be a successful manager here for a long time yet

Yes. Muscular? Could miss 3 games including this City game.

Because we'll need to actually score goals in the second half when we do our usual routine of conceding within the first 20 mins of the game.

Then McTominay wouldn’t have done what the poster said

Don’t like the diamond against this lot, big call from the manager, hope I have egg on my face!

Schmeichel's Cartwheel · Dec 12, 2020

I don’t think it’s a diamond, I think it’s 4-2-3-1 with Pogba on the left.

Potentially!! Interesting call if so.

Statue of Limitations · Dec 12, 2020

I've got butterflies waiting for this kick-off!

The implications of what a win means here for the season are huge, we win and it's on.

but a really strong manager might get his way - I'm thinking Allegri rather than Poch. I've said for ages that I'd sack the whole board - including SAF - but htat won't happen so we need someone who will stand up to them. Ole is not that man

Comfortable City win is what I'm predicting

Ladron de redcafe · Dec 12, 2020

Enormous match here. City have been inconsistent this season and I suppose that so have United. But if we turn up and if Solskjaer gets his tactics spot on, I think there's a genuine chance United win here.

Mctomminay will be an annoying fecker for 45mins and break up attacks, foul, get in their faces. Will be subbed for vdb at HT maybe.

Let’s hope so. I think the 70 min is more likely.

DatIrishFella · Dec 12, 2020

3-0 United. Watch. fecking stupid nonsensical team that we are.

12OunceEpilogue · Dec 12, 2020

fecking adverts, now I remember why I rarely bother watching any pre-match buildup.

RedTiger · Dec 12, 2020

We're winning tonight.

MUFAN79 · Dec 12, 2020

I would love to see a reaction from the team, I want them to play well and should we lose, it should be knowing we gave it all. Still believe we can win today.
Cmon United!

Exactly. People think a manager can't perform with a useless board. What a foolish theory !

Just a convenient reason to support Ole at this point of time.

Uniquim · Dec 12, 2020

I have enjoyed my day to the full, knowing it may fully be ruined over the next hour or so. Hopefully we can do these bastards like we did in the last home game before corona! feck City.

I have gone for a tight 2-1 , difficult I admit.

I was actually thinking that United can overwhelm Rodri se swarm him. This is a relatively static player who doesn't chase back and who has a propensity to be somewhat careless with his positioning.

RedDevilRoshi · Dec 12, 2020

As long as we win then that’s all that matters

Not confident though but hopefully the team prove me wrong

at least Scotty is ready to bleed for the cause. Pogba just wonders what colour to dye his hair

Agreed but I’d still take Pogba over Mctominay.

Berbasbullet · Dec 12, 2020

Jesus has a look of tragedy in his eyes.

TommiHelm · Dec 12, 2020

Fear the worst, hope the best. Score prediction should go higher than 5, I'm that pessimistic. Really can't take another Tottenham result.

You have a better chance of a fluke CL win than winning a league title. Di Matteo.

Titles require consistency. You pretty much have to be at it for at least 30 out of 38 games. Even more the past 3 seasons due to the standards set by City and Liverpool.

We're probably at least 4 points better off than we should be right now (Brighton and West Ham), so he's definitely had some things go his way already.

Agreed. Let's hope he gets lucky

VP89 · Dec 12, 2020

I'm still so enraged about midweek that I can't seem to get my head right for the Derby. Not sure if anyone else has the same sort of mood as me, but I didn't bother with any excitement toward football even generally which is odd. I just turned off my sport alerts, went out to the high street and only got home in time for kick off :lol:

bosnian_red · Dec 12, 2020

Not too optimistic here. They look well balanced. Definitely hurt from our last few wins vs them

Jose couldn’t do much so I doubt Allegri or Poch are going to stir things up too much. More of the usual one or 2 big signings and then work with what you have... when what you have is a wantaway Pogba. Out of form martial, Matic, relying on Cavani etc you’d have to say our league position is actually fair at the moment despite us having the highest wage bill in the league. That’s not on Ole either

RedDevilRoshi · Dec 12, 2020

Come on Utd!!!

londonredmaniac · Dec 12, 2020

Come on then you cnuts

MonkeysMagic · Dec 12, 2020

So which min in 1st half are we going behind?

(But coming back to smash them )

Schmeichel's Cartwheel · Dec 12, 2020

4-4-1-1 with Pogba on the left. Thought it would be this

That really wouldn't surprise me as a 0-3 wouldn't either. Actually us not conceding would. You just never know what you are going to get with us.
