man utd will win on monday

 

So will none of your horses.

 

Cork out for a month?

 

Nearer two.

 

Did you predict Arsenal to win today?

 

Fenster in German means window. This troll is suitably transparent.

 

Don't you think the bourgeoisie (City, Utd, Chelsea, etc.) should be challenged by the proletariat (Saints)?

 

He's a Celtic fan mush. Ergo, he knows f** all about competition, and thinks an underdog is something you kick when you bowl home pissed after a night on the McEwans.

 

He also thinks 9/11 is a conspiracy...

 

Hardly surprising. It is no coincidence that 9/11 was the starting price of the nailed-on cert that cost Eddie/Boris his house in 2001.

 

I hate Monday night games...prefer to watch our game as others unfold around us.

 

I hate Monday night football. Looking forward to next week when it's back to Saturday @ 3

Newcastle winning aside, this weekend has gone well for us so far (and with West Ham equalisers just a moment ago, could continue to be going well for us - them and Swansea both dropping two points would be nice). So win, lose or draw tomorrow (and I'm expecting it to be lose), we'll be out of this horror week still in a decent position and ahead of must (if not all) of the chasing pack.

Assuming that Morgan doesn't make it, I would absolutely be starting Reed. Wanyama and one other might be fine against Villa (Morgan being the one other, in that instance), but I can't see it being sufficient against Utd (Davis being the one other this time). And I say that even despite the fact that Utd's defence is their weak point, and no doubt our chances of achieving success against them will increase if we attack that defence. I just think that having that third midfielder not only helps us hold/control the ball more, but it also gives Clyne and Bertrand more freedom to offer themselves to the attack. And the width they provide is vital to making our attacking play work.

 

Don't see Newcastle win as bad for us...as I see Arsenal as more of a rival to us. Realistically Chelsea and City will finish above us, so we want everyone else (especially United and Arsenal) to drop points...then we could finish in the top 4 (preferably 3rd).

 

I would agree with you if it was Arsenal who Newcastle had beaten.

 

Sorry, I was of course talking about the alternative universe

Phew...think I got away with that one.

 

I reckon we will shock people and win 2-1 !

Woo post 1,000 !

 

Man Utd have won once away from home, I'm expecting a draw.

Nice to see the kids involved, even if it's training session, but apart from Gallagher and McCarthy out of the current crop, they all look like kids.

Get the miracle grow
