United Build Up

[Tee]

21 is mine, so Lucas is going to be the man next Sunday in a 2-1 win.

[DKdan]

I think we will line up like this:

------------Reina------------
Wisdom--Skrtel---Agger--Johnson
-------Gerrard---Lucas----------
--------Henderson---------------
Downing------------------Sterling
----------Suarez----------------

Downing will offer more protection to Wisdom than say Sturridge. The most important is that we dominate the midfield - then the rest will come. You never know what midfield Demento is start with, but if he has a brain fart and picks Scholes and Giggs then they will be asking for trouble. But he will probably go with Carrick and Cleverly.

Take out Sterling for Sturridge and I can see us starting like that.

[DKdan]

I reckon Baconface will start with both Archdivers Young and Valencia as well - no point not playing your best divers when you know the ref will be keen to reward their efforts.

Take out Sterling for Sturridge and I can see us starting like that.

I dont think Sturridge will start, as he will probably not be able to finish the game. I feel we will make more of him as an impact sub.

Should we take the lead in the game it will be difficult for United with Sturridge and Sterling on the counter, when they push forward.

[tufty]

won't be watching this

last time I missed this fixture was the 2009 1-4 hammering of the ****ers so fingers crossed

[-V-]

I am quite looking forward to this for the following reasons-

1- We outplayed them last time and most times in recent years
2- Rooney is out for them
3- We rested almost our entire defence yesterday
4- We have Gerrard, Suarez, Sturridge and Sterling all raring to go and even Downing has hit form
5- We have nothing to lose, everyone expects a home win because they are top of the league yet I think they will be vulnerable and we will have the movement to hurt them. We have scared them plenty in recent years

Really looking forward to this and fairly optimistic

I just hope for a fair go from the ref. Mark Halsey had Man Utd winning that match before it had even started earlier this season and wrecked what was a sensational performance from us. But given the stuff like a Berbatov dive getting a penalty, the Mascherano foul outside the area being given as a penalty, Gerrard getting sent off while Rafael doing the same is ignored etc I think it's highly unlikely.

[Gibbo]

We will lose.

Allen will be weak and ****.

Shelvey will be ****, which someone knew all along.

Sturridge will show what a waste of money he is.

Downing will be Downing.

Andy Carroll wont score.

That's the spirit Gibbo

FFS we have had some shocking refs against them.

its cos they are their refs

[Carras_Shin_Pads]

Can seeing it being quite tight - 1-1? be interesting to see how Sturridge and Suarez play together, shame they didn't get any time yesterday to bounce off each other

[DKdan]

I know. But I was still shocked when Chris lined up all the dodgy decisions they have had.

I told my manc muppet-inlaw that I just wish for a game where we wouldn't be talking about the ref afterwards. He instantly bitched about us always the victims... It evens out over the season... Blah blah blah...

I have never met fans more clueless than that shower of scum...

[Shaggy]

Oh **** off. Webb's got the match. ****ing Webb.
