So there are games tonight and tomorrow night because they postponed due to cup runs by some of the teams, three games tonight including Man United v Man City and two games tomorrow including Liverpool v Sunderland

Cant wait for tonight!
 
Right, expect an easy win against Sunday, also expect some empty seats, hoping for a United win today.
 
I hate to say it, but I think Man Utd could get turned over tonight. The fact that Aguero and possibly Dzeko won't play is probably just as well, but I really can't see United winning. That said, if Man Utd can win tonight, it would keep the league extremely tight at the top, and I guess that Liverpool supporters will be keen for Man City to slip up!

Doubt United would put up much of a fight aswell but who knows.
 
Right listen to this United fans, I read on Twitter that a few United fans want City to win because we don't want Liverpool to win the title...is it right or wrong to think that?!

:confused: Purely idiotic... United fans should want United to win the league. Period. Would they prefer Man City to win the league than their own team??
 
I feel the same, ifs its United v City like tonight then we should want United to win regardless of who is in the title race!

Wrong. I've accepted the fact that we won't win the league but I will always want Manchester United to win over any other team. Yes it would be annoying if Liverpool got another title but we have our own goals to worry about.
 
I'm cautiously optimistic about our chances tonight, I think Aguero missing is good they have got Kompany back but we have Rooney in good form with Mata playing behind him, three problems we face are how our midfielders are going to cope with Toure and Fernandinho, we have had defensive problems all season and we have the 12th best home form in the league compared to having THE best away form in the league..

Also Swansea are away to Arsenal, now we did beat them at the Emirates last season but I don't think we will do the same tonight, Arsenal are going to bounce back after the weekend and we should focus on getting three points against Norwich on Saturday..

United team...De Gea, Rafael, Jones, Ferdinand, Evra, Carrick, Cleverley, Fellaini, Mata, Rooney, Welbeck...good team, cant understand why Cleverley is playing though..

My god is Gary Neville not just the most annoying person to listen to on TV. He could give Piers Morgan a run for his money.
 
Thought United played really well at times but it wasn't enough, another nail in the coffin for Moyes?

Happy with the point for Swansea, that will help our battle for survival, so a mixed night...
 
Great win for City. Almost feel sorry for Rooney though- He
tries so hard, and he ended up trying to do everyone else's job in the end. Spent most of the match trying to play as a forward and a midfielder at the same time. When he was forward, he was the only United player asking for the ball and wanting it - but no-one else had the quality to deliver, so he dropped deeper to try and create something, but no-one in red did anything to help him. (In before anyone says 'That should be David Moyes in your avatar.')
 
Cant wait for the season to end now, good news for United fans is that the only team above us that we still have to play is Everton away.....oh and the beating we will get from Bayern starting next week...

...speaking of Bayern, they won the Bundesliga in record time last night with seven games to spare, 27 games 25 wins and 2 draws, unbeaten.....now after last night if anyone still thinks we can beat them then you need to stop right now your being delusional!
 
Good result for Wednesday last night - "last minute"* win against playoff-bound Brighton (who haven't beaten us in fourteen attempts) moves us up to just eleven points from the playoffs with 24 left on the table - that's actually less than the rate we've been gaining since Gray took over, but the rubbish results this month against Doncaster, Yeovil and Wigan have left us with more work than we should have to do.

Amazingly, given just HOW bottom we were when gloomhound #2 left, we're genuinely in with a shout of the playoffs - if it's a slightly longer shot than it could have been.


*90th minute plus 7 seconds. The game actually finished in the 100th minute due to injuries IN injury time...
 
More than that, only three teams have a better record since Christmas - Leicester, Burnley and Wigan.
 
Its quite tight at the top all of a sudden now, four points between Leicester and Burnley compared to ten points about a month ago...

Didn't you say United had a chance against City last night?
