Me too. I really want him to start, i think this is the kind of game we could really use him for over Davis or Ramirez
I'm not even going to this one and I'm stoked. Is anyone else feeling stoked? Although manure are not up and running yet this is the acid test to see how far we have come since last year. Although win and people will all be discussing united's demise, loose and the doom mongers come out and tell us to come back down to earth!
Could see both JWP and Rodriguez starting, with the intent of running Man U into the ground in the first half.
I'm showing physical symptoms of nervousness. That's very rare for me if I'm not at the game. Can there be a better time to face Manchester United? If the army is anything to go by, morale is possibly the most important factor in winning. Oour morale is sky-high, theirs is low, low, low. I won't be hurt if we lose but I'm quietly expecting better. Vin
My thinking exactly. Its hard to get your head around the fact that we could be going there as (dare I say it), equals.
I still definitely expect a loss, but I'm not nearly as certain as I have been every other season before now. It's certainly possible - we gave them a proper fight twice last season, and since then, we've improved and they've regressed.
