You know, I always pictured the end so differently than this.
 
They've not been doing well at all this season, but it would be a big mistake underestimating them, especially at OT.
Granted, they'll be missing Webb, but they still have some very dangerous players who can hurt us, and they do play the high crosses from free kicks, which is a weakness in our game. They are like an injured lion.
I also have a feeling they'll try to provoke Suarez into some stupid reaction which will bring the crowd and the ref into the game.

We can win this one, and what a boost such a win will give us. But we must not think we are the favourites and certainly not think a win is granted.
 
Suicidal to leave Sterling on the bench. Unless you want us to get beaten. Sterling, Sturridge, Suarez, Countinho MUST fucking start.
I'd probably leave coutinho on the bench so when he does come on he adds fresh impetus.
We should try to pick them off like we did spurs.
 
I think Coutinho is due a good performance from long long time, anyways he thrives in big matches and is going to become a big game player. I wont start Allen unless demanded by the tactics. Allen can come off the bench, the mantra to win against these cunts is to attack and be ruthless, they should feel as if their cunts/ballz are literally tore apart.
 
1) We had a poor 1st half against Southampton when they attacked down the wings.
2) Our midfielders are crap at tracking midfielders attacking the box.

We need to be wary of these especially with Fellani seemingly gaining some form.
 
Reckon this could be a "we'll score more than you" 10 goal thriller or something.

They'll be massively up for it (or calls for Moyes to go will be almost irresistible, surely?)

Hopefully Suarridge have a field day. Hattrick each please
 
This match will kill off any hopes we had (if any) of winning the league. Not confident at all. Like at chelski and mcfc, I guess we'll score first and then go on to lose.
 
I think if we score first we'll win. I just think they'll sneak a 1-0 or 2-1 narrow, undeserved victory.
 
If we start it like we did the Arsenal game we'll blow them away. And even though it's at OT I think we should do that. The whole place falls apart if they don't start well. The last thing we want to to do is be cautious and cagey. Block the service on the wings, press high and blast these fading feckers off the pitch. Come on!

100%, we have to start fast and get right at them.
 
Plus it has another advantage, playing like the home team makes the actual home side look like shithouses & their fans will be about as quiet as we can hope for there (they do actually make a fair bit of noise against us at times) which is part of the battle, cos it only takes that murmur of disquiet when cleverly miskicks a pass to get into the players heads.
 
Those of us who endured Souey's reign are probably the only ones who know exactly what the mancs are going through psychologically. You still start each game determined to be positive, hoping the nightmare is going to end, and even if you struggle for 60 minutes or so you still try to rationalise it and think it's the first step towards recovery. What absolutely destroys you is a really bad start, because then fear seeps into the ground like poisonous gas through a ventilator grill. Suddenly the players look scared, the team looks chaotic, the manager looks helpless and the crowd has gone silent. The nightmare has become even worse. We need to scare the shite out of them from the kick off.
