He's doing just as I expected. Season 1 he will challenge for a trophy or two and get his side together and then in season 2 he will make a strong challenge for the league.

I haven't given up the title this season yet though.

You have just mentioned what your expectations at the start of the season. Jose getting his side together was a given.
Top 4 and a cup were your predictions/expectations

Sorry for not being clearer.

I me at it as a given that it included top 4 while getting his side together.

It's never been an easy fixture for either club and it never will be. Even when one club is far ahead of the other, the underdog always raises it's game because it's the biggest game in England. We used to beat Liverpool a lot in 80's despite them winning titles. Likewise they have beat us enough times in 90's etc.

I'm confident going into game. A lot more than last time. We actually look like a Jose team now. We're winning, scoring goals and defending reasonably well. It breeds confidence.

The fact we've got home advantage, an extra days rest and Mane is missing for them, I think we'll be favs but the game will be tense and tight.

I genuinely think they will miss Mane a lot. He has added a new dimension to their attack.

Eric the king what was the fellaini song some of the crowd sang last night after he scored...?

To the tune of "Do the conga"

Do do doooo, Marouane Fellaini

Lyrical genius whoever came up with that.

I'm expecting the quad and a 4 zero victor vs club football Liverpool

We've not lost a game where Matip has started which is encouraging. Massive test for him though with Ibra. Shackled Costa well enough but he still scored!

Poor.

No.

No.


Is the answer to each question. Doesn't mean I don't want him to win every game we have. Doesn't mean I won't support him.

But he's doing poorly so far, he's failing to live up to the hype surrounding him and he hasn't changed my opinion that there were better options than him when he was appointed.

I think the key battles will be Pogba vs Henderson and Valencia vs Milner

We've not lost when Carrick has this season, in any competition.

13 wins 2 draws.

Going to be a tight game.

I just don't know. A 3-0 or 3-1 for either side would surprise me no more than a dogged 1-0.

I think this will be an interesting test of RoJo as they have come up against teams playing one up top and lumping it in a bit so I want to see how they do when the ball is played in and around them on the deck.

A lot depends on whether Coutinho and Henderson are truly fit as well.

BTTS looks the best bet but then 0-0 would not be daft.

I won't be placing a bet on it anyway!

I fear an anti climatic bore draw.

Bore draw would do me. Easily my least favourite game of the year.

Wow
Those pool fans over here are rattled by our good form. They are very nervous.

I reckon the reff will decide the game in manu,s favour

Let's hope so. The more controversial, the better.

I'm thinking 0-0 and in the 90th minute Fellaini dives and we get a penalty which Rooney buries for the record.

Meltdown on the forum.

Nice

Throw in to Liverpool that the lino gives the wrong way to us.

Cross by Mkhi to Ibra who's offside, heads it back across goal to Rooney who has fouled the keeper and slots it home in the 95th minute (only 3 was added on) for the winner

It's the Utd way atm

Kloppo smashes his glasses in a rage, and Jose takes the opportunity to gouge the Specless One in the eye.

Yeah we've had 1 penalty in 21 pl games. Refs really favouring us.
