Manchester City vs Manchester United

**kai** · 21-08-2007, 09:13 AM

So you should have!!!!

As to your point - half the fun of football is disliking opposition teams as well as supporting your own. Me personally I dislike half the premiership for one reason or another, and have soft spots for the the other half, but its all very fluid and largely depends on their relationship to United really as to how I feel about them.

As for the scenario you outline - can fully understand where he's coming from as what goods getting into Europe when your main rivals have bragging rights from winning the league... accepting relegation or even contemplating it's going too far though!

As to Arsenal v City this weekend - dont think either of thems gonna rival us for the league so hope Arsenal put City in their place at the mo - they need shutting up!

Closer to end of season would want City to win though if in a title race with Arsenal.

it's not that i want Arse to beat City, just think that if City play like they did vs United then Arse will put at least one chance away, despite their poor finishing...

but ofcourse i dislike City, and Liverpool (the most, yes even more than City), haven't got much time Chelsea or Arsenal either, and then there's Leeds, not mad on Spurs but that's more down to the Spurs fans i've known down the years having a chip on their shoulder about United...

citeh top of the league, top of the league, top of the league

oh, sorry, i still havent stopped laughing

Yeah I bet you haven't after stealing the most one sided game in history.

Was looking at stats for game and Van Der Sar didn't have a single save to make all match - then ya get a deflection with a speculative effort from 30 yards!

C.u.n.t's

As for teams I dislike - kinda echo Numerics really but my order's slightly different:

1) City
2) Leeds
3) Chavski or Liverpool - couldn't choose between them
4) Arsenal
5) West Ham

as for teams I have a soft spot for:

Sunderland, Blackburn, Wigan, Huddersfield, Portsmouth, Everton, Reading, Fulham, Spurs, Newcastle, MK Dons, Shef Utd in no particular order!

Course - once any of them's playing United that goes out the window!

weekender you're full of s**t lad, three games and City fans are getting way ahead of themselves, give it a couple of months and the sky blue s**te will be back where they belong, in the lower half of the league, and United will be back where they rightfully belong, at the top!!

Hahahaha, nice comments! United have the worst strike rate in the league too! I think United will have a lot of frustrating games now Reading have shown the way to play them (if you're a lesser team).

**Numeric** · 21-08-2007, 06:25 PM

Reading survived because Rooney went off injured, if he hadn't then United would have won all there games thus far...

**Eddowion** · 21-08-2007, 07:04 PM

dunno mate, one man don't etc

**Numeric** · 21-08-2007, 08:38 PM

to be honest if we'd have had any of our main strikers match fit i believe we'd be lookin at full points from United thus far...

but we haven't so...

lets get Anelka!!

Made up you lost you gang of twats.

It shouldn't no - but what would happen to Liverpool without Gerrard for a couple of months, or Chelsea without Terry (as shown last season when Moaninho whinged about his defence for a month) or Drogba - players of that kind of class always leave a gap no matter how big a team you are - and to have 3 out of strikers out is clearly gonna make it doubly difficult to plug the gap.

Still though, said in the summer we should have gone for Huntelaar with the kinda money we were splashing so no excuses really - reasons but bought on ourselves unfortunately by not going for a goalscorer and buying a team of players who play in the hole - my worry is the team has the look of the Portugal of the Premiership - amazing to watch but lack firepower!

Think it was more Chavski that tought people that in the cup final - and Moaninho made sure everyone got the message with his comments about the tactics employed after the game.

Just as teams have sussed Arsenal out (i.e. play physical), its now realised that United are at their most devestating when you attack them - if ya sacrifice having an attack then we can't hit on the break.

Very negative though aint it and not really good for the game! Everyone in the league knowing they'll be outplayed if they try and play so making the decision just to nto bother playing!

Quite, except Arsenal have learned how to kick back, ask Repka.
But for dodgy keeping we'd be on max points.
As for United, seen it all before, you can't keep a good team down, the xmas table will look more familiar.

it's all if's and buts, you don't know that for sure, anything could have happened, just accept the fact you've got off to a bad start, had some bad luck with injuries (like many teams have aswell) and stop moaning

it could be worse, you could support the owls like me

**Numeric** · 22-08-2007, 07:07 PM

dude i wasn't moaning, just expressing my opinion...
