PaulC Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 I think we drew 3-3 there the season we won the title. To be fair we hardly ever get anything. I think we should expect the worst and maybe we might be pleasantly surprised. We don't need another thrashing to dent our confidence though.

Ghost Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 (edited) I had a dream that we drew this game 9-9 Edited April 17, 2013 by Ghost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8pints Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 I had a dream that we drew this game 9-9 And we were nine up with a minute to go? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 (edited) And we were nine up with a minute to go? Surprisingly, it went punch for punch. They'd score, then we'd score, then they'd score, etc. With a minute to go, they led 9-7, and we scored 2 goals to level it. That's how I knew it was a dream.

It's probably as likely as my prediction so I'll go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieZ Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Well, the good news is Federico Macheda won't be there to score against us this year... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AValon Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Expect the usual Fergie time if we're in danger of getting anything out of it (I'm still quietly confident.......and still on medication) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevomanila Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 The thing is with this fixture is noone is expecting anything from us, many assuming we will lose, so we may as well go **** at them, but look for a few uglier tactics such as long ball from the back over the top for Weimann to chase but also keep it tight with a more defensive line up... So I would go: Guzan Lowton Vlaar Baker Bennet Clark Sylla Westwood Delph Weimann & Benteke With the option of bringing on Bent, N Zog and Gabby as game changers with 20 or so minutes to go if it's still tight and he feels we could knick it.

Stevo985 Posted April 17, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted April 17, 2013 I think it's going to be one of those incredibly comfortable games for United. They'll only win 1-0, but they'll do it a complete canter and we'll never look like scoring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 I'm fairly confident Benteke would be able to get some change out of whatever CB pairing they'll be using. We'll have some chances...we just can't afford to waste any as we did against Fulham and for much of the campaign this time around. I'm sure PL will be driving that home too.

JoshVilla Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Concentration is the key, taking advantage of any chances that we get. A small lapse in concentration, defensively or offensively will turn us over. No individual errors, just belief that if we give it everything then we can nick something from this. I just hope the squad believes this and isn't expecting to just keep the score line against us respectable. I hope Baker will be on form for this!

Me burns Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 It's not just the threat from Van Rooney etc, your back four are as dangerous.... Only joking. Dig in chaps, you never know, remember even Leicester won up there once under MON. God it's hard work supporting Middle Earth Clubs, makes it sweeter when you win though. Have a cheeky tenner on 0.1 Villa, I am going to, and no I haven't been drinking..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
