2-2

... they seem to have adapted our strategy of winning without playing well
===========================
So Man u's plan is to not play well because not playing well is part of their 'strategy' to win.

I think the op is trying to say united sometimes play like rubbish but still find a way to win. Sign if a winning team mentality.
A compliment to Chelsea

Great Red

Yes that may be true but ' play like rubbish but still find a way to win" isn't a 'strategy'.

I am going to disagree with you on this. There is sarcasm and humour in the first paragraph that most United fans would relate to

Also enjoyed the other line that says

Juan should not Matta!!

It should be a good contest but as you said it should be 2 teams going at it with their strengths - United playing counter down the wings (Spurs done this well and Lennon worried me every time he got on the ball) and if that is the case Chelsea will control the middle with the midfield 3 of Mata, Oscar, and Hazard. Think it may just be which ever defense has the better game wins it to be fair. Heres hoping for a decent games, but we also know these often then turn in to mind numbing nil nil draws!

I have no idea what will happen today, and I have no idea what team we will play.

You can pretty much guess the Chelsea side but ours is different every single game,

Wouldn't surprise me at all to see Giggs and Scholes both start in CM to be honest. He seems to think this is the "safe option"

But I'm confident we can score, just don't think we can keep clean sheet and their midfield is a lot younger and quicker so it's going to be tough tough game.

Happy with a 1.1

Their defence has leaked goals almost as much as ours but the only diff being that they are not giving away points...
-------------------------------------
Ermm whilst i do have concerns about our defence we have actually onlu conceded 6 goals in our 8 PL games so your point is factually incorrect.

You realise you've conceded something like 11 goals this season while we''ve conceded 6

United to win comfortably

Remeber they have that witch, lady luck, on their side.....why, I could never figure out, `cos they really aren't as nice as us!
We need more than a draw in this game or City will be staying ahead of us.
So don't care if we win ugly or otherwise: (like 5-0)....as long as we win!!!

Was that the same lady luck witch that allowed you two offside goals at OT and a mom performance from Howard Webb at SB to give you 4 points last season

So! Lady luck deserted ya...and United win ugly...well, my boy, we'll still take the win and the concomitant three points! About time, I would say...pays for Drogbas offside goal. ... and some!

you had that paid back with a handball goal, teo offside goals last season and Howard Webb, you may be in huge debt financially, but you are never in debt with match officials.
