Match Day Thread United v City

Rooney to assist Ibra's goal and be declared a villain

 

Rooney to get peckish halfway through the second half and eat David Silva.

 

Rooney will need a hat trick to get away without a lashing from the press

 

would you take 4-0 loss right now?

 

Too late, he already is. He said so.

 

Even that wouldn't help him.

Beeb is all over the fact that Rooney wasn't picked in a combined Utd / City side. Completely ignoring the fact that neither were Sterling, Yaya nor Stones.

^^^^^^^ Good on you Mourinho. Proper manager

 

Lingard starts in Manchester derby. Jose never bloody gives youth a chance!

 

Lingard and Rashford to swap places most likely at some point.

 

Lingard's 23.... he's older than Pogba, Shaw and Bailly

 

At my age Lingard is yoof - go Jose !

 

Mind you, at my age Scholes is yoof

 

Well I'm lost on this whole bollox. Either they're crying he don't give players through our youth system a chance (which is being disproved by Lingard).

Or they're saying he wont give our teenagers a chance. Which is also bollox as I don't see many big cpub prem managers doing that either!!

The other week they claimed Rashford was the first teenager to score in the prem under Mourinho. Until you ask the question how many (and how often) other managers have done that? Then it all goes quiet.

 

Tbf I think we could've all worked that out for ourselves.

Van Gaal no longer manages us

 

First start for Mikhi.

Interesting to find out how he links with Pogba and Ibra and Rooney.

Pogba will need to push forward more with Fellaini sitting back.

 

Good team selection. Pace and strength in midfield

 

That says a lot more about Chelsea than it does Mourinho imo.

When's the last time a teenager scored for Chelsea in the PL?

 

Blind pussied out of that challenge
