United Pre Match

[Mystic]

I don't think one of these exists, merge if it does, but I suppose it's time we got started. I'm dreading this match, I've already resigned myself to a two or three goal loss, so anything else is a bonus, I just can't see us coming out of this game well. It's such a massive game, the three maybes (Arsenal, Us, United) are all on the exact same number of points, with Chelsea behind all of us flapping around more violently than a Dodo in a Lions jaws. This is a massive chance for us to build a small gap on a top four challenge, both on Chelsea and United, because with Chelsea's form the way it is, they're working their way into the top four question, keep this up much longer and they can in no way be considered certainties. It's a shame, because we fucked up a great chance last week, and I'm almost certain we'll fuck this one up today.

Anyway, any news on the teams?

I'm expecting a draw or a defeat.

I don't believe we'll score

Same, I think we'll lose 2-0, and I can't see us every really being in the game either, depressing game ahead.

Who knows, we might be surprised

 

[Hansern]

Havent we scored something like 9 goals in our last 14 games?

Think Rodgers will go for the diamond formation with Ings next to Benteke with Firmino behind them.

Sadly we'll lose and going to work on monday will be shite with abuse from the Manc cunts.

 

[Frogfish]

Surprised you lot are so down-beat. You sound like half of RedCafe now they are without a genuine striker.

Both teams will find it hard to score but if we do start with Ings and Benteke and midfield diamond I now think (against a Rooney-less United) we can win this, a draw at worst. So 0-1 or 0-0.

Yep. It's footy. Anything can happen! Bet nobody had the blueshite beating Chelsea and Naismith scoring a hat trick

*cough* *refers Lippy to the opening post of the other games thread* Without the Naismith hat trick though !

Oh look at you smarty pants ! Very good. BTW You've predicted we are gonna lose in that one as well. And now you reckon we can win it. Come on, Bucks Fizz time, make your mind up.

 

[Hansern]

Rumoured team

Ming
Clyne Skrtel Lovren Gomez
Lucas
Milner Can
Firmino
Benteke Ings

Could be Ings out wide right aswell though

 

[darkstarexodus]

I'm at my son's hockey tryouts right now and not sure which I'm more nervous for - the tryouts or the match.

Don't expect us to get much from the match but both teams look real shaky this year. A win for either could kick off momentum, a loss could start a spiral.

 

[ILD]

Hope Ings plays and we try get at Blind. Hope no one does a Lovren for us at the back. Not even Dejan himself.

Milner is printing money for a booking.

 

[darkstarexodus]

Let's smash these cunts. Get Benteke at that backing and Ings can pick up the scraps.

Yeah that was before Rooney was ruled out 😉

 

[cloggypop]

We are going to win as we won't have a keeper who dives the wrong way this time.

Benteke is going to torture Blind who is not great at all with a physical presence.

3 nil us.

 

[doctor_mac]

United might sneak a lucky goal. 1-3 to us.

That shit satanic mascot can fuck right off.

 

[Mystic]

I'm excited to see the return of the diamond, Ings could really shine today, as could Firmino and Benteke, big day for both Clyne and Gomez as they'll have much less protection, I fancy Mata to humiliate Gomez. I really want to laugh at that fact Fellaini is starting as a lone striker, but no doubt he'll score a hat trick off his nose or something equally ridiculous. I'm still dreading this match, so nervous.

 

[Molbystwin]

I predicted us to lose 2 nil in the betting pool at work....

I am currently bottom of the betting pool at work.


I am still shitting it however.

 

[cloggypop]

When we win 3 nil we will go joint 2nd.
