blobbyrob Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 11 hours ago, It's Your Round said: Chris Sutton and “rapper and Man City fan, Blanco” have both predicted us to win. 1-2 Villa according to Sutton, and 0-1 for Blanco, who then goes on to add the below comments in his Liverpool v Spurs prediction: ” I just don't understand why Tottenham always beat us? How does that happen? I think they just treat it like a cup final when they play us - they have never won anything, so they just go for it! Liverpool always seem to beat them at Anfield though.” This comment really winds me up. Classic plastic Citeh dick head. As much as I dislike Spurs, they’ve won plenty. In fact they’ve won the FA Cup 8 times, League Cup 4 times, the league twice and a European trophy in the Cup Winners Cup. Citeh were nothing before the oil money. Blanco is from south London but grew up a Blue. Says it all. Proper plastic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can see the logic in it though - pushing two forwards against United's weak back line would be a high risk tactic, but there's a reward there if we can get the ball forward quickly and trouble them, they'd end up either having to play one of their midfielders as a de facto CB or get involved in a basketball game - I think if we were looking to create chaos and see what happens then there's a logic to the idea. I don't think that's us though, I don't think Unai is a manager who wants to throw the cards in the air and see where they land - I think we'll look to do our thing, to carry out our plan and see if United can deal with it rather than introduce madness and hope profit in the rubble. I like that about us - we play big team football. So yeah, I wouldn't do it, but there's a certain logic to it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwivillan Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Reading Redcafe match thread they are very nervous and one comment said the team is running on fumes. It's like reading VT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bannedfromHandV Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Balls to it, I’m saying it again - I’m optimistic for tomorrow. Got a feeling we’re gonna see an Unai masterclass, make it so boys, make it so. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calcifer Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 I am feeling confident about this game, we are on a great run of form, confidence is high. Manure have had us as their home win banker for so long, time is changing, this team folds for no-one now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But "if we are fired up like we were against Newcastle"... exactly, if. And this is a big if. :s I really hope we will be but am worried about if we're not. For a start, v Newcastle was in front of our home crowd whereas on Sunday we'll be away. Plus Man U haven't lost at home in the league since last August (the opening day). The longest current unbeaten home run in the PL. 1954! My Dad was born in 1965 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Given the Brighton result. We’re probably going to have to beat either United or Liverpool on their own soil to finish in the Europa spot. Let’s start tomorrow! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Just seen the results. Not the best but Will give us even more incentive/ or positive pressure as Don Unai put it If we manage it tomorrow all i know is it will be one for the ages. Just picturing that away end now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VILLAMARV Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 I'm mentally treating this game and the Anfield match as free hits - if we win the other 3 I think we're in the mix. Having said that it would be great if we can continue to score in every game under Unai and if we come away with points it will be a great week for us. I really want us to win though obviously and the idea of doing the double over them is fuelling the excitement. We can beat anyone if we play like we did against Newcastle. Their only recognised CB is Lindelof. If not now, when? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
