It's not looking good on the players front, Pogba looking set to miss out, Valencia doubtful and in that case we're down to a 16 man first team squad. Willock is being drafted in. I'd be happy with a decent performance and draw. We do have the fire power to bother that City back four tho, so you never know, derby innit.

Arsenal beat them and they're out of the cup so i'm sure Pep wants a response, we shouldn't give it to them.
We're very light but hopefully we can get the 3 points and put the ball for top 4 back in our court so to speak.
I would take a draw out of this however, and we probably need at least that, a loss here and then we better win the europa, cause our top 4 aspirations are over.

A minimum of a Draw is a must.

Looking forward to this, City coming into it after a long old match with Arsenal that ended in defeat and we've had a pretty good week result wise but all this goes out of the window in a Derby. Pogba reportedly out, I'm not sure how Mourinho will go for this one but maybe something similar to the Chelsea game with Rashford and Lingard bamboozling the City backline. Martial a little unlucky to miss out but I think Jose will have already decided his team beforehand. De Gea Valencia - Bailly - Blind - Shaw Herrera - Carrick - Fellaini - Micky Rashford - Lingard
Win here and top four is in our hands

Possibly the most important game of the season... no pressure With Pogba reportedly out it will be tough, but maybe something like this: De Gea Valencia Bailly Blind Shaw Herrera Carrick Fellaini Mkhitaryan Rashford Lingard City are objectively better than us in midfield so throw as many players there as possible, make sure that Micky and Lingard track back and put our best performance - should be enough

Dear Fellaini
Fuck off
sincerely
United fans everywhere
anyway, by some miracle, it was a draw (though that too wasn't a fair result).
this league 1 standard donkey that Jose Mourinho fucking loves. Should go to West Brom and link up with Pulis and play that route 1 shite the fucking hack.

Dear Jose please sell Fellaini to a mattress factory and give Martial to whoever wants to pay his wages,
I said a Draw, Got a Draw and I am Bloody Disgusted with the above two clowns.

Martial was acting on instruction, so you can't really point the finger. Mourinho did what all the smart managers do when they realise they don't have the quality of players to make a proper game of it, they defend first, kill the game and try to play on the counter. If there's one thing Jose is the best at, it's that. My beef is when he comes out with; 'We played for the draw due to lack of midfield quality' - having seen the complete lack of squad rotation all season and the gross misuse and sale of schneiderlin and schweinsteiger, it's too much for me.

It's typical Mourinho, he'd have played the same way regardless.
As for the match it was utter turd, we just sat deep and City were just pass, pass, pass and pass again. Perhaps it was just one too many games for the both of us. Fellaini isn't good enough for a match of this size and he is also a complete moron.
... Let's move on, Swansea up next and we must win.

It'd have been different if Pogba had played last night, he'd have probed the fuck out of that shitty defence in the first half. He was a very notable absence last night.
Just read a Jose stat that says we have played 18 (yes, 18) more games than L'fool have played so far. That's an eye opener.

Sorry, but I don't think Jose told Martial to run always into blind alleys and lose the ball or to constantly pass the ball either into no mans land or to the opposition ! He is one footed and predictable to the extreme.
