Predicts a 0-1 to Utd Its not so much United winning that makes me laugh, as it is very possible, they are a quality outfit, its how he seems to think that with the best two attacking teams in the league at the moment there will be only 1 goal in the game?! Is he nuts? Utd have looked poor defensively, and although we have conceded the least goals in the league, we havent exactly been water tight and with Utds attacking options I can see goals going in at both ends. I will be surprised if there are not atleast 3 goals in this game.
I think it will be a great game and we will win 3-2... Has the potential to be the game of the season this one
He says "But I just have a feeling that after all the talk about their defensive deficiencies, United will keep a clean sheet at Stamford Bridge." Why? What a weird assumption to make? Great attacking line vs poor defensive line = clean sheet. Great Logic Lawro
Hate that jumped up ****er, 0-1 to United is by all means a possibility but highly unlikely given BOTH defences are weakened and BOTH attacks are superb. Awful logic from him
Normally he just goes for 1-1 when 2 top sides play each other so at least he's stuck his neck out. I put us as favourites but having got 2 great away wins in the league on the trot, would not suprise me one bit if we were brought back down to reality on Sunday!! However you'd have to say there should be 3-4 goals in this game. I'm going for a 2-2.
Look on the bright side Bodanki! If his predictions were correct so far this season Man City would be 4 points in front of us, instead we are 4 points in front of them.
The guy is a joke. By that superb logic he should have been tipping QPR to win the title this year! "After all the talk about them getting relegated this season, I wouldn't be surprised if QPR win the league or get into Europe at the very least." My (very biased) opinion is that we (United) might sneak a 2-1 win, but I'll gladly take a draw any day of the week. Resting Rio midweek will hopefully enable us to only concede one goal on Sunday, or at most 2. But I have more faith in our team scoring three goals than keeping a clean sheet, that's for certain.
Both sides are capable of winning (excuse the obvious chliché but you know what I mean), it'll be close. I'll go for the scoreline of 3-2 Chelsea
Lawro/Shearer/Hanson/Dixon/Lineker - 100% useles as pundits and are very fortunate to be on the BBC gravy train. How Lineker who says naff all of worth gets £2m pa is beyond me.
I really don't want to be controversial, but I can't see your lot withstanding the pressure that we had to endure. In that second half against you, we ought to have bagged a fair few goals, and if we had gone 4-1 up against you, there would have been no way back for you, I believe. Can you see United being so remiss, as we were? I think that's where Lawro is coming from.
