Matchday 31- Man You Away 7th April

[Mr Pink]

I just came on to start the thread now. Bloody beginners with no idea

Didn’t we drop points the last time someone created the matchday threat, which wasn’t SB??

[Mr Pink]

Them ****ing up last night was bad news for us imo. Means they will not be complacent.

I don’t know, I’m sure someone would have made a case than a 3-2 win would have given them extra confidence and been bad news for us. They have some dangerous players but we just need to show that we are the better team and take our chances.

I’d say that in an ideal world (for them) ten hag would want to park the bus, play for 0-0 and maybe scrape a 1-0 win. But after what happened against Chelsea he can’t really afford to do that, not in front of their own fans, who are already pissed at him… if they try to outplay us, I’d hope it will play into our hands- especially if they’re light at the back.

I think it was the FA Cup from memory. And I think it was Frank

[Norbs]

Not much chat about the game. Are we collectively nervous?

[rudedog]

Nope, we are a much better side than them - the FA cup game was completely different - we had half our team missing and were running on empty when we played them and still should have destroyed them. Only an extreme dose of spawn kept them in the game.

This time is different

I’m very nervous, but not cos it’s United- think I’m gonna be nervous before all games going forward. This is a big one though… I was very confident against them at anfield in December.. and very confident against them in the cup 2 weeks ago… now I’m anxious, and will be buzzing if we get any win. You don’t know what United will turn up these days- if they play to their potential, it will be a tough game… but if we play to our potential, it doesn’t matter what they do, it won’t be enough.

Arsenal and city will both be looking at this as a game that we could slip up in. A comprehensive win would really take the wind out of their sails…

[DerKrampus]

I know form doesn't always come into it between us but if you look them objectively, they concede so many shots, a 5-0 drubbing by us is a possibility.

I'm singularly ****ting it.

[SB]

I'm singularly ****ting it.

Yep I’m with you with that, especially with the other two teams winning so easily. Our goal difference is way behind Arsenal so a draw could basically hand Arsenal the title. This is the big one & United’s most important match. I’ll tip a 2-1 win but it could go any way.

[baitman]

What are the chances that the ref and var will conspire to screw us over again

[Irishnev]

Form goes out the window in these fixtures and yes I’m quite worried about it. I just hope we’ve our heads screwed on and start well for once!

I’m not going to be able to see it unfortunately as I’ve a long standing family commitment, we have to win as I don’t see the other two dropping points

[frank the tank]

I see arsenal dropping points tbh. United and Wolves and Tottenham away......plus Villa and Chelsea at home. They could draw one or more of them imo

I could see city winning all of theirs alright though.

[Exiled_red]

This is a massive game, their fans will be up for stopping us winning the league and the confidence will be up given the result they got against us in the cup. We need to make sure we play the team in front of us and not the occasion, we also need to take our chances and kill the game off, which is what we didn't do in the cup tie.
