    Interesting that Manure supporters have picked up on Ki being off the pace recently - so it's not only us who've noticed. He has to raise his game - and soon!!

    The midfield battle is going to be crucial and our lads are going to have to work hard to gain parity. Love or loathe United, you have to concede that, for all their talent, their players work their socks off. For instance, you often see Rooney sweating in defence as much as he does up front. SAF, great manager that he is, insists on it.

    This is one aspect of our game that we should definitely try to improve. As I've said over and over, if we add intensity and urgency to our game, we could easily be top half because we have skill in abundance.

    Love us to win but I expect Man Utd to edge it and would be delighted with a draw, say 2-2.

    floods everywhere with many commuters stuck where they are with many cancellations on trains..some roads are impassible also,Its a nightmare here in the uk at the moment...many games called off with waterlogged pitched that are more suited for water polo than football...

    I thought you'd pick up on that one Ivor!!...........<laugh>...I think he'll raise his game for this one, but if there are signs he's sleep walking, I would hope that Laudrup replaces him with Agustien, half time!.................<ok>

    I think there's more of a worry about fans travelling to the game regarding the weather. I'm sure I saw on the news that the rain will stop during the night and hold off until after the game tomorrow. I hope this means that the game will go ahead, let's face it this is the biggest game of the season and I have been looking forward to it for weeks.

    the game wont be called off, Man utd are in the marriot hotel on the sea front as we speak, the liberty has one of the best drainage in the country so it will have to be something more than water to have the game called off....

    We need our boys on top form tomorrow it would be a massive boost to beat man u after thier lucky win here last season. A good & fair performance from the ref and his watch will help too.
    Who`s reffing the game ?

    We are in with a chance as in every game but i would not risk my hard earned cash on it, the defenders had better be on top form and vorm also to keep RVP and rooney at bay, if we can do that then i know we can score against them. Man utd are better than last season and we saw norwich beat them against the run of play but norwich also beat us so that dont mean anything...Keep it tight with accurate passing is the key and not like we played against spurs with long passes and long balls as they will put a shed full against us with the players they have, they are not at the top for nothing....

    Liverpool aren't playing Man Utd tomorrow, you're on the wrong board. This is the Swansea board you are visiting

    Michael Oliver I believe. He was in charge for our scalping of Arsenal at home last season ;)

    No Dai wrong again. I just think you have no right to comment as a Swans fan. Yes as a Liverpool fan but not a Swans fan as you've already commented elsewhere about you beloved Liverpool and referred to them as "us".

    I just view you as a Liverpool fan now and I can't see anyone after tonight thinking you support the Swans.

    You do all those things ..... and then you are delighted when Liverpool climb above the Swans in the League. In my book that makes you a Liverpool fan. Your claim to be Swansea's no. 1 fan just makes you look a complete idiot.
