Match Day Thread Manchester Derby

They haven't looked unbeatable recently, they also got beaten in their last game.

 

Mourinho is at home so he should attack, but will he?

He’s a master of shutting down other team’s attacks. He’ll try to stifle Sterling and Sane and upset De Bruyne, if he can.

If City score first I think they’ll win it. If Utd sneak one it could be a long game for City.

As Luv says, most likely a draw. But I wouldn’t put too much money on it.

 

That was in the CL, a gag me they could afford to experiment with and lose. Absolutely nothing can be concluded from that game, other than the fact that Pep is not afraid to experiment and lose.

I think this match is one he will be desperate to win for all kinds of reasons.

I think United will be destroyed.

 

I hope you are right but just don't see it happening.

 

I just think United's defence is so much better than City's previous 4 opponents. City have scraped past the last 4 opponents.

United picked off Arsenal on the break...and I think they can do it again...however Pogba was pivotal in last weeks win with how he carries the ball forward...so he will be missed.

City are more than capable of grabbing an early goal and my theory goes out of the window.

 

sky sports most over hyped game of all time now ... its bad like

 

It's not as bad as the game on before it, it's usually ****e football.

 

I'd have thought most people would want United to win this game.

No one except City fans want City to storm away with the league this early in the season.

 

We're not catching City so I'd rather them win it than Utd... I'd rather anyone win it than Utd.

 

Would quite like City to do a proper humiliation job on them like the 6-1 game just to see Mourinho’s face. The crowing from him if they win will be suitably cringeworthy.

 

Keep on sucking on those lemons mate!

Mourinho-hating aside, a United win is better for the league at the minute or the rest of the season, the next 5 months is all about who gets second place.

 

Meh. There’s enough excitement at the other end where half the league are in a scrap now.

 

You're talking to a Mackem mate.

Trust me, excitement down there is over-rated!!!

 

QPR have been in plenty of scraps too but as an outsider looking in when it gets to the last ten games I find the relegation farce more interesting than the title which is rarely more than two teams or, even worse, the race to finish fourth.

 

The butthurt on display here is at world record levels.

 

They're getting bummed rotten today, we'll ****ing smash them.

0-0

 

So!, It’s you that’s ‘those looking in’.!?

 

Tel, you do realise, don't you, that Pixie will have bookmarked your comment, so that he can wum you in the event that you "**** up" with your prediction?

I'm just throwing that word of caution out there, mate.

 

What are the birds like there, mate?

Are they really dorty?

If they're not, just lie to me.
