Saturday, 10th March - Man Utd vs Liverpool. Battle for second place gets serious.

[sir roger]

I hate Old Trafford games & we never get the rub of the green there.

 

They are nowhere near as bad as people are suggesting , just not as flamboyant as we are. We have won there twice in 15 years, and we have conceded 3,4 and 5 in our other visits to top 6 teams this season.

 

Having said that if we are on our game we could batter them, but I wish I had the confidence that lots of forumites are showing.

[Tourt]

I’m expecting Mourinho to adopt the Swansea managers tactics; clog the midfield, forget enterprise and hope to exploit a set piece or defensive lapse.

 

I hope Can starts, he always plays well against that lot.

 

I'm confident of victory because they are not as good as us.

Valencia

Smalling

Lindelof

Young

 

That's quite the defence. 

 

Manchester United...nil

Liverpool...four

That's not confidence, it's wishful thinking.

That was before van Dijk and the rise of Karius.  We're a defensive machine now.

Doesn't Mourinho usually play Young wide midfield against us? I think he will again with Shaw at LB up against Mo. I'd love to see that

[Ginny]

Steam into these cunts, pull their trousers down and grab their fuckin cocks and milk their ballsacks dry until they’re depleted and there’s not a drop left. The slide it in.

I think it’s very early for that kind of statement. In my view both our attacking and defending is very much reliant on our aggressive pressing high up the field. If the opponents break through that to counter against us, or if they’re able to put us under pressure with crosses and set pieces, I still feel we’re quite vulnerable. It seems Van Dijk and Karius have made things better, I agree, but we still look a bit soft in these situations.

[sybian]

Dont forget Robertson.

[Baltar]

I think we'll dominate the game but still end up losing to a spawny goal with De Gea playing a blinder.

Edit: As pointed out below, Robinson has also been key to our improved defending. Maybe I’m too negative....

[ZonkoVille77]

My money is on it being a shitfest 12 v 11 ref fuck up wank bag prick head.

 

I hope we win.

We're not fuckin shite

[milky]

Hate this.

 

Hate the match itself, hate them, hate their jumped-up chequebook Pulis manager, hate their nasal, arrogant fans, hate every single cunt who pulls on their jersey, hate their soulless pit of a ground, hate the inevitable Sky hype- despite the game in recent times being turgid shite. Hate Eamon Holmes and Simply Red.

 

Bring the fuckers on.

[dylstar]

The Shitty Man United went to Rome to see the Pope,

The Shitty Man United went to Rome to see the Pope and this is what he said

FUCK OFF!

 

Who the fuck are Man Uniiiiited?!

Who the fuck are Man Uniiiited?!

Who the fuck are Man Uniiiiited?!

 

As the reds go marching ON ON ON!

[Section_31]

They are an anti football club embodying everything that's wrong with the game. Let us put them to the sword.

[M_B]

Mo will bum them.

[Hand Shandy]

If we don't score in the first 15 minutes, it's going to be a turgid shitfest.

[dockers_strike]

I think we will win 2-1.

[LFC 6 Times]

I think we'll win, Mourinho gonna try every trick in the book but I we owe these cunts one. 3-1 to us.

[Numero Veinticinco]

If we don't score in the first 15 minutes, it's going to be a turgid shitfest.

Agreed, mate.

[TheHowieLama]

If we don't score in the first 15 minutes, it's going to be a turgid shitfest.

 

We can only hope

[corro]

Who's the ball bag in the black on Saturday. No doubt the Portuguese piss stain will look to apply a bit of pressure on whoever it is.

I'd take a 1-1 draw on Saturday if you guaranteed me the same score against Seville. Badly want the cunts knocked out.

[BCM]

Cant see us getting a win on saturday. Shit midday kick off. Looks like drizzle forecast too. typical shitty manc weather.

 

Il be happy when this game is over with.

[Guest]

The main reason I hope and believe we will win this is the fact that each match thread I have started has either resulted in a team being blasted away or a boring comfortable victory.

 

It will either be one of these two or I will be off duty for match threads.

[manwiththestick]

This would be nice....again!

 

Was watching this in the house when the wife was in labour, some time into the second half she said she needed to go hospital, I held out till full before driving her to the Womans with a big grin joking we were calling our son Fabio or Fernando. She thought it was dead funny at the time, honest.
