Do we ever get the play these bastards with out first choice XI ?

Seems like every time their game comes around we've got players out.

They have Carrick and Fellaini out as well according to physioroom. They have both Rooney and Van Persie available, however.

This is an advantage if anything. Fellaini is shit.

Cleverly is one of the worst 'top 4' players I've ever seen, and he plays for England.

He must be REALLY good at sucking cock.

I always hear about how 'shit' Cleverly is, i will admit i haven't seen that much of him, however i watched just five minutes of a game manu played a couple of weeks ago and saw him play a pass that not one of our players could have played.

I think consistently wise he simply isn't good enough. I find a lot of the games he just goes missing. But the 'top 4' bit was key, I know he'd get in our side! Unfortunately.
A champions league and international player though? I just don't get it personally.

Sod it. Changing my negativity to an arrogant belief that we will win. The smug certainly of the sports media towards this game is pissing me off.

Villa home win, piss on the haters.

Cleverley isn't anywhere close to top 4 standard. However he'd walk into our side.

Quite. A shit player does not play regularly, for a Premier League winning side.

I don't know why, reason doesn't come into it but I'm sure we are going to win. C'mon Villa beat these bastards.

79 go for a Manure win ? Have a bloody word with yourselves will you.
Some are sensibly going with the bookie view and the weight of the past. Some are just pessimistic. The there are the irritating Villa reds...

That gives us more of a chance. Good news.

They will still come at us and have enough still to inflict some damage but they will give us a chance on the counter.  Let's hope Gabby is up for it and that Benteke finds form.

There's nothing at all easy about Sunday, but them having key players out obviously helps. We've come very close to doing them a few times in recent years at VP, but between finding ways to shoot ourselves in the foot and the Ferguson "never say die factor" they've managed to beat us more often than not. They don't have that now and Moyes on the sidelines is a world apart from Ferguson. Biggest issue for us we simply cannot give them the ball because if we do they will beat us. And that has been our major flaw in the last few games especially. We gave Fulham the ball and they beat us and they're at the arse end of the table. A good side like Man U will know exactly how to punish us, whether they are going through a bad spell by their standards or not.
