We can and should win but are we likely to? No. The likeliest result is 1-0 Utd win. Going to have to work hard and actually covert the chances we do get for once. Hope Poch drilled finishing chances into the players this week.

About time we started showing up at the so called bigger clubs ground. Tonight would be a good time to start

Absolute ideal scenario - moreso than thrashing them 4-0 or summat - is that we beat them in a totally undeserved shithouse win, scoring a goal that's 5 yards offside or getting a last minute penalty through a handball that never was etc. That would be just lovely.

As it is, I'm expecting either a draw or maybe a narrow defeat. But praying for that shithouse win.

Shithouse wins against Utd, Chelsea and Liverpool are often funny for the ire they generate. But a four of five goal annihilation is always longer lasting, permeating the collective wanker psyche of those teams

Give me the 4-0 here and the shithouse win at Anfield. Thanks.

COYS...Smash these prima donna's.

Nice assured display, with quick, accurate, penetrative passing. Score a few and be a bitch at the back.

Nicely rounded off with a pissed off presser from Mourinho post match.

My workstation sits facing a Man U fan, stare directly into his office.

I hope we smash them, my afternoon (2pm start time locally) entertainment will be so great.

COYS!

always hate this fucking game away at old Trafford, just seen too many things go against us up there but we're more than capable of beating them tonight though

Thanks to Gary Neville!

Just read an article criticising our "friendly" players and how we have "wilted" at Old Trafford.

Good team talk son.

Hope Poch posts it on the dressing room wall.

We have been unlucky the last couple of times. Hope we grab them by the throat and give them a good thrashing tonight.

...That's the heart dealt with. Head still says an unlucky 1-0 defeat.

If we win this one, it will silence those who say we are a team of "winters", as well as those who say we have gone backwards because we have not bought anyone this summer. If we lose however, all those negative pundits will say "I told you so." So big test ahead, not only in terms of table standing, but also the psychology of all involved.

I just don't want to witness any 'rabbits in headlights' displays.

At times it appears nerves kick in and we panic, losing the ability to play the simplest of passes or think properly.

Believe in ourselves, we're a match for anyone when on song, we've got to get the mentality that we're more than capable of beating anyone.

All too often I've seen us gift these so called big clubs goals, and ultimately wins, through our panicked play.

I'm sure that the reason for this alot of the time is because of the thought of whom we are actually playing. Fear factor if you like.

It has improved, the Bridge hoodoo put to bed and some good results against those considered our immediate rivals, but being a greedy fecka...More!

Here's hoping we can spank a Manc tonight.

Got to think like a winner to be one.

COYS!.
