View from the Away End

Postby CuteMancs » Sat Sep 13, 2025 4:30 pm

Ive been listening to all the usual City podcasts this week, and without fail they all predict that we take all the points tomorrow. We should beat them at home, this is a team that just got beat by Grimsby, but I am too nervous to be confident. It might come down to which of the goalkeepers survive their first derby test? I am not going to predict a score, but I will go for at least 10 minutes added time at the end, unless the rags are winning of course.


Referee: Anthony Taylor
Assistants: Gary Beswick, Adam Nunn
Fourth official: Simon Hooper.
VAR: John Brooks
Assistant VAR: Neil Davies.


Team Selection

Altay
Yoro De Ligt Shaw
Amad Casemiro Ugarte Dorgu
Mbeumo Bruno
Sesko​

And the rest…

No reason why we can't get something here.

They look vulnerable, we can definitely get something here.

Predicting a 1-1 draw.

Non clinical Man United to play a big part in allowing Donnarumma get man of the match on his city debut?

3 nil to United. City to be in crisis with 3 points from 4 games, but the media will still speak only about united and how we were lucky and it being a once off victory.

Pep doesn't give a feck anymore, so it's there for the taking if we can put in even a half decent effort. So basically If we play like we did against Arsenal we'll win easily, but if we do a Grimsby then St Pep will be the man again until they play Napoli and Arsenal.

Quietly optimistic for some reason. We've been decent in the big games under Amorim.

City don't scare me, they're not the force they once were. Our system scares me.

It is absolutely mind boggling that we are about to enter a derby in late 2025, with city's cheating not only unresolved, but actually emboldened and greenlit to fund themselves for another decade with inflated deals. I really struggle to get the motivation to even watch it. What is the actual point?

Would be funny, but it would also pretty much knock them out of the title race right away and I don't trust Arsenal one bit.

City to have 31 shots, Lammens to save them all. Bruno to snatch a late winner against the run of play. 0-1. Job done. Lovely jubbly.

Cunha and even Mount will be big losses here. They both press like mad and hassle opponents.

Cheers CM.

Any old win will do as they say. Not confident myself and agree with their posters who don’t see why they shouldn’t get something from the game
