Footy why have you posted this shit on here?

Don't see anything wrong with posting quotes about the Man U potential team selection in a Villa v Man U pre-match thread tbh.

In any case, my prediction is they'll go for it against us and Liverpool and rest players against Leicester.

I like Deano's comments regarding penalties ahead of the game. Hopefully it plant's a seed in Kavanaghs head that these are cheating snides. Given he comes from G. Manchester and obviously doesn't support them, he ought to be acutely aware that these are a shower of twats.

It's happening, we're turning these fuckers over.

I'm with you Ads, we are going to win this game.

Are we bollocks. If they play better than us, they'll beat us. If we play better than them, they'll cheat us.

Funnily enough, I've seen quite a few Villa v Manure live games and never ween us lose to them. I just have a feeling we will finally beat these cheating twats.

Article in the paper today about Line of Duty and Ian Buckells (H) being a "lifelong Aston Villa fan". Didn't really need "lifelong" in there did we? Suspect the Man U fans come in various categories of supporting them for the last 5/10/15 years, the platinum members being around from 1992.

He's definitely a chip off the old block isn't he.

This is the one fixture I am happy to be unable to attend.

The worst fixture, year after year, for a number of different reasons.

This game. This ******* game. Anybody wants to compare our stats against these with every other team in the PL era (not that we were much better in the past), here you go
https://www.11v11.com/teams/manchester-united/tab/stats/

Tbh I'm surprised we've drawn almost a quarter of the games, doesn't feel like that.

I'm sure most of those were down to us not being able to hold out and conceding late, so they'd feel like defeats anyway.


We've rescued a point twice. Four goalless draws, six capitulations.

We had a run of three 0-0s in a row in mid 90s under SBL. Fergie proper hated our approach in our days as he knew we had a cracking team back to front (indeed he tipped us to challenge for the league for the season after we won league cup) so much better than some of his patronising comments after wins in the last decade he was there.

I always think that awful Sunday night game in the FA cup when they scored three times in last 15 minutes completely broke our spirit as a club v them as our record in the 90s wasn't that bad compared to most of the league (we had a worse record v Leicester in those times) and since then we just have no belief even if we're 2 up at home as we showed under Houllier and Lambert in future seasons.

One day it will change. I do think there's more belief in the team playing them nowadays but we just lack that bit of luck at crucial moments and heads then drop.

For example get back to 1-1 at Old Trafford and feels we're the team going to be on top for next 15 minutes and two minutes later Pogba completely manufactures a penalty so we're behind and chasing the game once more.

I think we’ll win tomorrow, law of averages and all that. Funny really really as I never really hated Man U growing up, it was Liverpool for me. Liked BFR and their Irish contingent, first game I ever went to was at old Trafford as well, 1982 game after Ron Saunders resigned, I was 8 and didn’t really understand this. Predictably we lost 4-1.
1 win in 44 league games as this lot though, it just has to happen and if we play like last week, why not now.
Classic 3-2 (Ollie, Konsa, McGinn)

During matches, these feckers normally have the ability to 'step up a gear' against us. Usually due to a stronger bench. It always gives them the advantage.

'Ollie at the Wheel' will be rotating today and the use of his bench will be critical.

More critical for us is how Deano responds and also, how fast!!

In Deano, we trust.  :)

At least we've got a decent striker in our side today. That gives us some hope.

Until the referee and VAR get involved - wankers

Probably the easiest fixture in world football to predict. Us to be leading 2-0 before losing 2-3 as has happened so many times before. Naturally, I hope I am wrong but for me it stinks of another one of these games.

Stand by for the sycophantic Sky coverage, only one team to watch.  I wish Sky would remember that these twunts were part of the firm that would have ended the football coverage contract for Sky had the ESL taken off.  It hasn't taken them long to forget. Plastic fans, plastic owners, plastic baby faced manager.  I fucking hate them. Slags.
I recommend this post to everyone but wondering why Steve67 is so restrained?

Nice ranting Steve.

I really don’t want to watch this match, so hoping the rain stays away so me and the family can all get our. Not sure I can handle yet another suspect decisions against us or any more silly penalties for them.
