We'll be three up by half-time, so that second half will be a bit poorer.

I would love that, but I am a nervous wreck.

Rooney will be out to prove a point and play as if his off field problems and recent red card hasn't affected him. I think he'll be agressive and it might actually backfire badly. I wouldn't be at all surprised he saw red again. I read that he might not even play but I think that's rubbish, he will definitely play but we don't know if he's in the right state of mind. He never really plays well against us so I'm not too concerned. My main concern is the threat from the wings. If we nullify that I can actually see us winning by a couple of goals.

This game can't come quick enough for me, so bloody excited. Picked the wrong week to be off work. Gone so slow!!!

I'd like to see: (Kelly for johnson/Skrtel for Agger if not fit enough)

Reina
Johnson Carra Agger Enrique

Lucas
Adam
Gerrard

Kuyt Suarez
Carroll

Come out all guns blazing in the first half and hopefully get a goal or two before the break. Introduce downing to keep the width around the 60 min mark and bring bellamy on around 75 just for his pure pace. I think if Downing is to start (which is the most likely case imo) you can lose Adam out of that midfield, or maybe suarez due to tiredness possibly?. Not like I want to drop Suarez but I don't know what the coaching staff will think. We probably don't need three in there against their midfield but personally I think it's where the big games are won. In the centre. I'm gonna say 2-0 to us.

C'mon the redmen!!!!!!!

seen a few poster's on here say they would be happy with a draw which is bollocks. we need to beat these and get the gap down to 3 points. if we end up 9 points behind man utd by october despite all the money we've spent on suarez, carroll, henderson, adam, downing, and enrique, then i'm sure john henry will be demanding answers from kenny.

We would be 6 points behind with a draw, though.

Having see how seceptable United have been lately (basel/stoke/Norwich), I think if we get at them early and deploy 2 pacy wide men (Downing and Kuyt), We can cause them severe problems and be capable of getting a hat full of goals if we take all of our chances but I will take a Win and a Good performance, Think Enrique/Kelly will be decent as wing backs with Carragher and Agger in the centre. For Me Gerrard would start on the bench with Adam/Lucas starting in CM for this game and Carroll up front with Suarez slightly behind.

I would like to think Henry is far more sensible than that. Clearly our priority target is the top 4 in May, not being less than 9 points behind Man Utd in October.

Think that's the first time Dirk's ever been described as pacy!

Also think that starting Adam in a midfield two vs United could be suicidal.

One thing I hope for this match is that we somehow get a connection with Manchester United.

They are the most successful league side in this country. Fair play to them. They beat us to number 19. They've had a few years to do it, but they got there. They are currently a better club than us and have better players.

But that's what should inspire us. Not hatred. Not despite. Not anger. We should be aiming for where they are. It's been 20 years since we've won the league. It's been twenty years of things not being right with the club - we've had combinations of great managers, great players but overall we didn't do enough to win the league. And after all is said and done there isn't one of us that wouldn't trade Istanbul for a single league win. The league is the 'bread and butter' of an English football club. It starts. It ends and it IS the league.

Alex Ferguson was on a mission and he achieved some incredible things.

Despite some of the fucking stupid twatty bollocks I come out with from time to time, you have to respect that football club. A football club, like us, from the North of this great country. A football club, like us, with the roots of trade, industry and the guts and hard work of the North of this great country. Liverpool and Manchester are linked in so many ways and outside football there is a great rivalry to be better. A great struggle to be seen as ahead.

There are so, so many things to like about Manchester and Mancunians and even that great football club down the East Lancs. Yes they annoy the fucking shite out of us at times and we do the same to you - but you would have to be a complete fucking gonk to not have the tiniest bit of respect of what they are, where they came from and what they've done.

When they won 'Number 19' - people talk as if - that's it. It's all over. It's been a challenge. And they've won.

Fuck. Off.

It is a struggle that has been going on hundreds of years and will be for as many to come. They are ahead. That is a challenge. That is something we aspire to get back to. On our fucking perch.

I don't despise Manchester. I don't hate Mancunians. I'm not Manchester Uniteds greatest fan. But I respect them.

And I hope that respect can be shown by both sets of fans on Saturday. After all - we have bigger fish to fry at the moment.

Someone called Flies posted : I believe your talking utter po po, if its "sensible" discussion your looking for then you are slightly mixed up, this is a forum afterall where people come to talk about everything to do with football and other topics, while being hidden by a username & a laptop.
It is neither your place nor your right to judge just because users use insults language you disprove of. I believe you earn respect but telling people how to speak,which effects their freedom of speech is'nt very respectfull.

Oh dear oh dear oh dear. When people of shall we say a limited capacity for structured debate resort to childish abuse then they're more to be pitied than scorned. Perhaps it just hasn't sunk in with you yet that sensible discussion CAN apply by hitting buttons on a laptop keypad just as they would by sitting in the pub. Mind you, us old bleeders are pretty choosey about who we do speak with on the sacred topic of grown-up football debate.

There's a strange dichotomy in your post which I find difficult to grasp. You state you hold a belief that respect is earned (which it absolutely is) yet perversely you then go on to defend the use of insults and negative language in what you call "debate". Really mixed-up thinking there ...perhaps it's hormonal?

I don't think you know how to debate in truth. I suspect that you do know how to provoke and annoy and I think you set your stall out so to do.

I chose to respond to your childish post but I'm not remotely annoyed. I only get annoyed when grown up people whose opinions matter behave badly and disappoint.

Oh deary me, its awful when someone claims to be of higher education, then resorts to playing mr. punit behind a keyboard. so may things wrong there is'nt even worth responding to. Maybe when Ratboy gets the sack from sky they'll come calling until then i'm sure we'll be graced with your presence on here, in bewilderment at such highly educated comments as this "Saw a nice bit of skirt out here last night and got a twinge of tightness in the groin meself...well, near to the groin yer know.
