The odds for MC Vs. MU and Liverpool Vs. Brighton are similar. Home team almost 1/3 and away team is 8/1.
Being an old fobie I still find it difficult to comprehend how far we have come and how far MU have regressed.

I cannot see them scoring more than us because we have Haaland so I think City will win but it is a derby so I am always apprehensive.

Any old win will ultimately do. And it's a derby so strange results can and do happen.

But I expect us to turn on a bit of style and panache and put them to the sword

Is it a good thing that we play the red shite after an international break? I'm expecting us to be up for it and also hoping that ten bob heeds sourhgate's words and plays telly head - though i doubt there is too much chance of that
Big question for me is will Pep do similar to Dortmund and not start his strongest side - surely not for this one. Lets roll these cnuts over no fucking about

Pep will deffo start his strongest side. And I reckon he could start Alvarez and Haaland. Just because

Don't like the timing of it. Unless we're in the usual "win every game" scenario with the Dippers Pep seems non-plused about it and treats it as just another game. Hoping there's nothing weird with the line up. Starting Grealish AND Mahrez is a big "no". At least we can't have Stones at RB. Walker is a must with their pace. I've heard that Martinez kept Haaland quiet when Ajax played Dortmund so should be interesting.

We've been a bit hot and cold. They fancy themselves now.
It makes for an interesting derby where anything can happen.

We've played 3 league games at home and scored 4, 4 and 6.
They were praying for the final whistle against the dippers, got played off the park against Arsenal. Southampton should have got something against them, they just beat a shit Leicester and lost to David Silva's mob in the thursday night comp.

They'll be shitting it and rightly so.

I hope so.
If they arrive and try to play there is no way we will not win imo.

Erling has a score to settle for his dad.

Have been wondering how he will react to the inevitable Keano chants from the red shite away support. I can see it not ending well for them and Erling sat in front of them after his third goes in

Impossible to predict pep but I think he's going to stick with Grealish.
He seems to be taking it easy with Alvarez, so I cant see him starting.
But who knows what he will do.
