Manchester United v Manchester City

Steve mcmahon:
Smalling hasnt impressed me at all. Every time he has been given a first team opportunity, he has been poor

That said, Tevez can potentially bum him tonight
 
Mancini says to win is more important than not getting beat. Set your team out to reflect that then you boring tosser.

This has dull 0-0 written all over it.
 
I love the look of this line up.

I have wanted Fergie to play Anderson and Scholes in the same midfield in a 4-3-3 ever since Anderson found his form this season.

Fletcher over Carrick is also an interesting one as it looks like a very attack minded and energetic midfield.

Fancy this as our home leg in the CL side.

Afraid Rooney is always going to get the nod over Berbatov as lone striker as well.
 
That must be a bitter blow for Berba. Not starting another big match.

But I was fairly certain we'd go for one striker and Rooney is the best we have in that role.

Yeah but the sad thing is we seem to be matching them

used to be our best in that role. But has not been for a long while.
 
City ex-player Dennis Tueart in response to a question that 'how does it feel for City to be so close to the top now?' replies saying something like 'Well City are now where they belong.'.

Er, no. A team doesn't belong at the top when it needs so much outside money to get there.
 
Our two top scorers on the bench in favour of a striker whos scored how many this season?

The other two aren't really suited to the lone striker role. But you have to feel bad for them. Rooney needs to return this faith Fergie keeps showing in him.

Tueart was an excellent player , his overhead goal to win City the LC many many years ago was something special , but that is just bollocks ,

Indeed. And how often does Fergie get it right. If this was last season we all would have agreed.

Huge day for Rooney and if it works it will probably kick start his entire season and we can then all hail Fergie for an amazing call.

Exactly. Generally you belong somewhere if are capable of getting there on merit.
 
SWP is still playing football?

FSC giving ITV a good run for who has the most ad breaks prior to a game - ITV still edging it though
 
Interesting line-ups, two very expensive strikers on the benches, I'm surprised Rafael isn't playing and that Carrick didn't come in for the sitting job. Is Kolarov playing left wing?
 
Interviewer: Do you think City can become the best team in Manchester?
Zola (huge grin): They're working on that, but I don't think Sir Ferguson will allow it.
