Why?? Man City and Arsenal are better teams. If we have no playmaker as HH has said then neither do United and they lack a defensive mIdfield player. We will never have a better chance to beat United. This is the worst they've been since the Premier League began. That's why i don't think its the right way to setup just to play them on the counter attack.
We play Arsenal now, we get battered, we caught them off guard on the first day
City have been poor away and our record at home against them ain't too bad
UTD are UTD. We are their easiest fixture historically. Villa park is like a second home to them.
You see them losing their last two games as a positive for us, I see it as a negative. They are away from the pressure of the home crowd, they will not lose 3 games in a row and we are woefully under strength.
If we win or even draw ill hold my hands up but it's a defeat in my eyes
Maybe mostly true but fact is City and Arsenal are better teams and we have two first team players out so not woefully understrength. Ok maybe key players
