Man Utd vs Man City Saturday, September 10th. 12:30

[Mr. Scruff]

City take the lead.

Sitting way too deep, got what we deserved.

 

[Bilo]

Blind what the fuck was that

Yes I ended up watching this. Well more entertaining than I thought so far.

 

[Stevencc]

That's more the sort of goal I thought we'd be going for, bit of route one.

Cool finish though.

 

[The Iron]

Good finish that and fully deserved.

Go City

 

[G-Dragon]

Rooney losing it. Not just his hair!

 

[Stevencc]

Mkhitaryan is having an absolute nightmare so far.

 

[Benji]

De Bruyne in a central role is good news. Man Utd unable to deal with City, look second best every where. Only positive for them is Ibra looks capable and dangerous.

 

[G-Dragon]

Why aren't United fans shouting ATTACK ATTACK ATTACK???

 

[G-Dragon]

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAAAHAHAH

 

[Pagnell]

Mwahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

Ahem. Sorry.

 

[The Iron]

hahahahahahahahahaha 2-0 get the fuck in!!

 

[Bilo]

Mkhitaryan is having an absolute nightmare so far.

World class compared to Blind mate

 

[G-Dragon]

 

[Stevencc]

Extremely lucky but when you dominate a game like City are doing you are much more likely to have things fall your way like that because you are actually creating things.

 

[Stevencc]

IBRA!!!!

 

[DarkSithLord]

Joe Hart must be pissing himself.

 

[G-Dragon]

What a FLUKE!

 

[Pagnell]

Cracking finish. Cnut.

 

[Bilo]

Bravo

Fantastic finish from Zlatan mind. Draw would be a good result to be honest.

 

[PDS]

Anyone else get a slightly weird feeling of satisfaction from watching Mourinho lose?

 

[PDS]

PS - awful from Bravo; Joe Hart isn't perfect but I still maintain he's not worse than Bravo

 

[Pagnell]

Anyone else get a slightly weird feeling of satisfaction from watching Mourinho lose?

Everyone who isn't a United fan I suspect. He's deeply unlikeable.

 

[G-Dragon]

hahahahhaha IBRA

 

[Stevencc]

City have been excellent - absolutely dominating us so far. De Bruyne is running the show. We are fortunate to get in at half time only one behind.

Hoping for a change on the wings because Lingard has been anonymous and Mkhitaryan has been absolutely awful. I've been calling for him to start ahead of Mata since we signed him but I can see now why Jose has been easing him in this far - he's been sleepwalking through the game being dispossessed before he even realises he's in possession of the ball.

Ibra's been poor as well - impressive reactions to nick a goal from Bravo's howler, though. Justice for Joe.

In complete contrast to the start to the season Rooney has actually been our best attacker.

Surprisingly this one is living up to the hype!

 

[MJA]

Barring the last 5 minutes, City have been superb and Utd had no answer to them. De Bruyne in this sort of form is simply awesome to watch.

Suspect Jose will make changes particularly as some of his midfielders have been absolutely dire.

If Bravo stays on, his defenders won't have much confidence in him and Utd will need to just pressure him as much as they can as it is their only chance of getting anything from this.

 

[Mr. Scruff]

Yea it's pretty obvious 'check google for spelling' isn't coming out in the second half. He has been absymal.

I'd keep Lingard on but switch him on the right for Schneiderlin, Carrick or Herrera (not sure who is on the bench) to firm up our midfield and push Rooney wide left. It's utterly bizzare that Pogba is out deepest midfielder in a game of this magnitude. See how that goes for 20 mins then bring on Martial and Rashford.

 

[Bilo]

Ibra's been poor as well - impressive reactions to nick a goal from Bravo's howler, though.

That's like Zlatan in a nutshell though. Poor but scores.

 

[Stevencc]

That's like Zlatan in a nutshell though. Poor but scores.

His quality usually shines through, yeah - that's why I'd not contemplate taking him off because you know he will more than likely make something happen at some point.

 

[Abertawe]

I'd bring both Hererra & sneid on, in place of MK & Fellini.

 

[Stevencc]

Both wingers off - good news.
