Barclays Premiership | Sat, 5 May 07, 12:45 | City of Manchester Stadium
 
The matchday thread muppets will have you for this
 
come on boys!

VDS
Sheasy-Rio-Vidic-Heinze
Fletcher-Carrick-Scholes-Ronaldo
Rooney
Saha

don't want to speculate on a result - obviously hoping a win!
 
we regained the premiership, this year in kippaxville
this year in kippaxville
this year in kippaxville
GO , YOU GOOD THINGS !!!
 
Louis, Patrice and Rio all to start.

A goddamn bloody shame that they didn't last night but its happened now, wasn't to be for one reson or another. They'll demonstrate their quality agaisnt City instead.

Saha to score, show the doubters the error of their ways.
 
So...

GK: VDS

LB: Evra
CB: Rio
CB: Vidic
RB: Brown

LM: Giggs
CM: Carrick
CM: Scholes
RM: Ronaldo

ST: Rooney
ST: Saha
 
VDS
Brown-Rio-Vidic-Sheasy
Ronaldo-Carrick-Scholes-Giggs
Rooney
Smith

2-0
Rooney and Ronny

Be a tough start then we will wear em down and win comfortably
Then come on you Gooners:devil:
 
Even though it is a derby and City's biggest game of the season:

They haven't scored since New Years Day at home.
The Barton fracas will surely have the dressing room in disarray.
Barton, undoubtebly their best player is suspended.

I expect at least a 2-0 win.
 
It's hard to say what the team should be, should Saha after being a right pussy for the last couple of months walk straight back into the team just because he's now feeling mentally fit? Should Evra come back after missing the midweek game after what happened to him in the derby last year? Should Smithy come back? Who should play right back should Rio return? Questions questions questions.

My team would be.....

GK: VDS

RB: Brown
CB: Ferdinand
CB: Vidic
LB: Evra

RM: Ronaldo
CM: Carrick
CM: Scholes
LM: Giggs

CF: Rooney
CF: Smith

Subs: PIG, O'Shea, Richardson, Ole, Saha

1-2 win for us and the title clinched Rooney with both goals :devil:
 
Manchester City 1-3 Manchester United

They ain't scored at home since new years day :lol::lol:
and only scored 10 goals at home all season!! :lol::lol::lol:

Joey Barton has been banned, thats good since he is their driving force in derby games.

they'll be in "Cup Final" mode on though, so we cannot sit back or underestimate them.
 
------------VDS---------------
-Brown---Rio---Vidic---Evra----
-Ronaldo-Carrick-Scholes-Giggs-
-----Rooney----- Saha---------

Lets not hold back against them. Its time to play with our full potential again. We need a great result to return the attacking confidence and self belief to our squad again. Ronaldo in particular needs to raise his form again.
 
1-2

own goal (dunne)
ferdinand

tight game, must win (obviously)
 
I just hope we don't rest people for Chelsea
 
will pierce instruct his charges to chase after every ball and so, do we smithy around to hold up the ball?
 
I just hope we don't rest people for Chelsea

It should be easier to get points on Sat than on Wed so we should try to take advantage by playing our best team - if we should happen to be comfortably ahead later on we can bring on subs. 3 points would almost seal the title.
 
I'd like to see Rio rested still as a precautionary measure. With groin injuries you never truly know when they are healed until you exert yourself, which is why it's always wise to err on the side of caution and rest a little longer - even though it seems and feels fine.



VDS

O'Shea - Brown - Vidic - Evra

Ronaldo - Carrick - Scholes - Richardson

Rooney - Saha

1. PIG
2. Smith
3. Fletcher
4. Heinze
5. Giggs


More than adequate, I think.

1-3 United Rooney x 2 Ronaldo
 
The best posibble way to win the tittle:

If we draw against Shitty and Chelsea lose to Arsenal...... Why????

Well then we can easyly play with the reserves just to make a joke out of it. Even if we lose the next two games playing with the reserves Fergie can say that we took the tittle playing with the reserves :)

If we beat City and Arsenal deny Chelsea all three points. We could well play people such as Dong, Eagles, Richardson, Smith, Saha, in the last two games. But we will not make a joke out of it. Fergie has his pride and he will put out a team he believes can win while still resting key players.

not if we end up losing 6 v 0 to chelsea, then chelsea could still win the league, if we draw and chelsea lose its only 6 points difference
 
Manchester City haven't scored at home since January. :rolleyes:

Why do I have a feeling they'll score on Saturday?
