Manchester City - Manchester United

[ojg]

Who do you think will win, Manchester City or Manchester United next Monday (30.4.12.) and what will the result be? The winner of this match will almost be guaranteed a Barclays Premier League title.

I think this match is going to end with score of 2-3 to United.

Am I the only one excited?

Excited... More nervous, this game is going to be huge. Just hope United can win it, It's disappointing that we dropped points in our last games - brought City right back in it and those dropped points against Everton cost us the chance to lift the trophy at the Etihad if we won there. I'm just hoping that United can pull off a performance and just stop City from drawing level on points at all costs - then we have control of the title run in.

I'm pretty nervous too, City got a very strong team this season, as well as strong sub.'s. Forget "El'Clasico", THIS will be the match of the year!

It all depends on Monday nights result.
But, as a United supporter, it better be the red devils with their 20th title!

Shocking revelation stated by Sir Alex Ferguson, original link here > http://www.twitlonger.com/show/h5g2qe

Alex Ferguson has controversially dropped talismanic referee Howard Webb from Man Utd’s starting 12 for the crucial Premier League clash with Man City, and will instead hand a start to Andre Marriner.

Early reports indicated that crowd favourite Webb would line up for the league leaders, but news has now surfaced that Ferguson is to take a gamble on Marriner.

Marriner, who has only made 3 starts for Man Utd this season, is a surprise selection by Ferguson, given Webb’s ability to pull highly contentious decisions out of the bag in big matches.

“Webby has put in some great performances for us in the past, but I feel the expectation levels of supporters could be too much for him on this occasion,” revealed Ferguson.

“I might put him on the bench as an impact referee in case we need one of their players sending off or a penalty deep into stoppage time.”

Manchester Derby

The news of Marriner’s inclusion has left United fans miffed given Ferguson’s criticism of his performance in a 2-0 defeat to Liverpool in 2009.

“It doesn’t make any sense not to include Webbo,” said avid fan John Henderson, who has lived in Plymouth all his life and whose only connection with Manchester is that he once voted for Bez when he was on Celebrity Big Brother.

“In games like this you want your best performers on the pitch, and Webbsio pulling the strings is as good as going into the game with a two-nil lead.”

“I hope that Ferguson has seen something in Marriner in training that suggests he can rise to the occasion.”

“If City have still got eleven men on the pitch at half-time then I’ll be singing Webbsyio’s name.”

“I’ll be singing it at the TV, but rest assured that the wife will be left in no doubt about how angry I am.”

Shocked by the poll results, I'm just thinking if City's attackers will have a good day they will trash United's shaky defence. Especially because the previous clash was 1-6 I would have thought the poll would be in favor of City.

Actually the previous clash was an FA cup win for United at the Ethiad.

Also City need the win, United can take a draw.

True, but then again Kompany got sent off in the 12th minute :/

Imo the way they were going, I would have expected United to go on and win anyway, him getting sent off let United have the 3-0 half time lead, but it allowed Mancini to play the perfect 10 man tactic of sit pack and then hit on the break with pace, if he did that 1-0 down with 11, his fans would be going apeshit.

Also, in the league match at OT, you have to remember 3 of their goals were in extra time when every United player had conceded defeat and literally given up and just jumped forward in search of a concellation goal.

Evans got sent off when City won.

Getting close to kick off now...Im shitting myself.

You really need a draw option in the poll. Guessing it will be something like 2-2.
