Manchester United v Norwich City - matchday thread

Really looking forward to the game today. A win seems very unlikely but a game against the world's most recognisable club is always exciting.

Lets spoil Giggs' party. I've witnessed two wins and a last minute defeat against United - a last minute winner from Giggs, so it would be great to get revenge.

Pilkington made up for the miss last last season at Old Trafford by scoring the winner in the game at Carrow Road earlier this season.

I would also love to see Kei Kamara score today, continuing his Premier League dream by scoring at the Theatre of Dreams.

 

Wes back in behind Holt. I think it's the best starting solution.

 

RVP and Rooney both start, thought they would be rested.

I'm not really expecting us to get a result, hope I'm wrong.

 

Hack the **** out of them I say. Lets test United resolve to keep their best players on the pitch.

 

Well thats one tactic! haha! Im sure Bradderz will do his best to make it happen

 

I'm sure Brad will test fergusons resolve when he dumps someone on their arses.

 

Worth pointing out there's no Giggs at all for United today, but RvP and Rooney both starting is a worry. It'll certainly make any result all the sweeter, but being pessimistic I'm hoping we can just keep them to within a couple of goals so as not to harm the goal difference much more.

 

Does anyone know the Norwich starting XI?

 

Bunn, R.Martin, Johnson,Turner, Bassong, Garrido, Snodgrass, Howson, Holt (C), Pilkington, Hoolahan,

bench: Camp, Whittaker, Fox, Kamara, E.Bennett, Becchio, R.Bennett.

De Gea, Smalling, Vidic, Evans, Evra, Valencia, Anderson, Carrick, Kagawa, Rooney, Van Persie

 

So 4-2-3-1?

 

How did Johnson mess that up

It was easier to pick someone out than mess up the final ball!!!

 

Goddam so we've had kagawa "accidentally" stud snodgrass. And van persie "accidentally" studded bunn

If we did that they'd demand a UN security resolution against us.

 

We look spirited! We've woken em up!

 

Valencia. Dive. Standard.

 

Beeb reckon we're hanging on as United throw everything at us, is that accurate?

 

They've had a bit of a go but Norwich have defended well. We are breaking well.

 

Not many chances for united but they are dominating possession
We haven't offered much so far

 

Bollocks!

 

Damn, was hoping we'd make half time. Shame Southampton equalised too. Up until then pretty much every result was going our way.

Edit: FFS West Ham just made it worse.

 

Ref was guna play till they scored. Evra dived for snoddys yellow as well.
