Mata due a performance tonight. With Persie out he should have more of a free rein behind Rooney.

Problem is even if United win City still only need to win their remaining matches, even if we win all our games

But I dont hold out much hope anyway, Moyes is hardly inspiring either, even the cringeworthy, desperate goal celebrations look like wide eyed tramp thats found some beer

[Rmpr 8,977]

I very much doubt Mata will play well. He has always struggled against City's physicality, so why the hell would he all of a sudden turn that around with United???

Anyways, I'm expecting a blow-out from ManCity...

Agent Mata has already completed 1 half of his job against Arsenal. Now to do get it fully done against City.

Unfortunately City are in a different bracket to Arsenal, but it is time for Mata to do what he is capable of.

Well, here's to hoping Utd's players show some backbone and pride tonight and stick it to City. They have actually looked better without Van Persie for a lot of this season (with Rooney as the main striker) so I don't think that will be too big of a problem. City are still missing Aguero, aren't they?

[Special Juan 27,115]

Yes Aguero is out.

Think United will come into this one on a high and thinking "we can win this!" but will get destroyed. Hope I'm wrong.

I can just see Silva slicing through that defense like butter.

[iceboy 992]

Please United please.

[zolayes 14,489]

hope it gets nasty a few straight red cards for City would be good .. about time Yaya gets done for hitting ,,kicking and stamping on players

[gary gordon 1,777]

The first time in my entire life that I'll be cheering for United. I'd love a draw because I have a feeling city will drop points to Liverpool.

[Bir_CFC 3,455]

United's defence is too shit to hold out City. Only chance they have is to outscore City which I don't think is possible either. Really don't think United can win, hoping for a 2-2 draw.

[Shane 2,275]

Come on Agent Mata, do your job son!

The thing is if Mourinho was in charge for this game, the chances of Mata starting would be about zero. He'd pack the midfield and look for pace on the wings (Welbeck and Valencia probably) to try and hit City on the break. He'd probably be inclined to stick Jones in midfield and maybe even Cleverley to really work their socks off.

But Moyes will probably play it open and get turned over by at least three goals.

[Sidzeret 2,257]

Obviously United prefer us over City and L'pool any day. Now its the time to step up.

C'mon you wanker shits.

Jones in midfield is a non-option though with Vidic being suspended

[Special Juan 27,115]

Fuck sake I forgot about Vidic being out......54-0 to City

[Peppen 934]

Yernited are so shit... BUT PLEASE TAKE POINTS OFF CITY TONIGHT PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
