Think we ought to play Remy tbh.

Can't have Arsenal thinking we bullied them with Costa can we.

I mean...play fair for Arsene's sake.

It's only right and proper.

Cesc has got a hamstring problem, so looks a bit iffy.

C'mon Cesc!

3 hours to kick-off.

My mates will be in The Courtfield in Earls Court.

Kings Road will be buzzing.

I fancy Lampard to score.

Get redrus to give us some insights. Like I said, I don't want to hear any crap from City.

Rocking used in the positive sense. 'free, happy.'

Read my post.

Yeh. Hadn't thought of that.

When are UNITED playing them?

He's getting old.

Not in 6 months mjj.

Earlier this year he was ripping defences apart with his speed and strength.

He could also do a Pirler from a free kick.

The problem is in his head. Charming One needs to sort it. That's what managers do.

Tell me what "snide stuff" i have dropped in and I will discuss why I have that view. I would like to hear what nev, Rus, BigToe etc have to say on my view though.

This morning I haven't seen many posts from you on actual football matters, so if you want to talk football I will discuss but if you want to bait into an argument, sorry but I'm not going to engage.

I could dig out plenty of snide stuff from you bojangles on various threads.

Especially Chelsea's.

Go on then. I challenge you to find "snide" posts from me in the Chelsea thread.

Can't be @rsed to go back into the archive.

However, reference to toxic triangle between Abramovich, Mourinho and Courtois lingers in the memory.

You are not as innocent as you like to make out bojangles.

Correction: Chelsea beat you home and away in the Prem last season.

I know you did. For all the good it did you. It's a marathon, not a sprint

Better stick "CHAMPIONS" on your monocle then.

For the moment.

What's up with Toure?

Nobody from City ever replied.

I'm not interested in hearing what a City fan thinks about UNITED.

And the forum isn't here just for your benefit. It's here for us all to discuss and debate. I will therefore continue to post my thoughts and if you don't like them, ignore them.

And the forum is here so City fans can drop snide stuff in against their arch rival.

And you ain't so innocent bojangles, are you.

Slippery.

You've spent too long on social media forums bojangles.

milner is quality ,always had that opinion,workhorse and creative =versatile ,that can be a thorn in your side.he would've flourished at somewhere like everton where he would've been given a role/run in a position imo:(

We all appreciate the contribution and versatility Milner gives Kurt but we have good players in every position and rotation has to come into play.

Yeah. Especially when you play Bayern Munich and Roma.

Pellegrino masterclass.

Yep, the same Pellegrini that won the Prem in his first go last year, unlike Mourinho's masterclass eh. Glass houses P45, glass houses.

Mourinho did it in 2005 with a record 95 points.

He also took an average Portugese team to the Champions League Final and won it.

Never mind beating van Gaal's Bayern Munich in the 2010 Champions League Final with Inter-Milan.

And taking over from Pellegrino who got heaved out of Real Madrid.

Master Class.

Pellegrino is going to win the CL. You've got to get out of the group stage first.

If Rodgers makes a pig's ear of it this season I won't complain.

I've lost my faith with these supposed Liverpool supporters.

Here's a Chelsea video to get us back on track.

Clean the air.

My word this threads diversified! First i've heard of "the dutch afterburner" and hopefully its the last!

If i could just sneak back to football, i fancy Chelsea 2-0 tonight. Ofcourse is Ozil is played in his correct no10 position theres always a chance they will open you up but Chelsea seem to have too much firepower. Costa to score again i presume!

Needs removing from this thread, as does most of the Liverpool garbage from the last 24 hours.

Sordid.

Interesting to see if Mourinho is bullish and wants a 6 nil repeat.

Might settle for the 3 points.

What would an alternative government have achieved in 65 years?

PRC were given no option..

With good leadership China would be rocking.

CCP will not relinquish power.

Tell us what you think rus please.

Top 4 is a a 'ridiculous goal' for Liverpool.

Wheels have fallen off.

Brendan Rodgers himself has said we are in transition mode.

Pellegrino masterclass.

Beat Arsenal and we can effectivly bury them early on 9 points clear of them so early on and 8-10points ahead of United as I am taking Everton to possibly earn a draw.

Team?

I´d Select

Courtois, Azpilicueta, Ivanovic, Cahil and JT.

Midfield Mikel, Matic and Fabregast as no 10 with Hazard and schurlle on the wings and

Diego costa up front.

I´d select Mikel as he best anchor combination in midfield. Fabregast when playing in the middle plays to far ahead of Matic by about 10M pushes Matic around 5M further forward and that is why I think we leak goals, too many, too often.

I´d also nudge Costa to pull out spain squad and miss next matchs against Palace, and maribor giving him 2/3 weeks rest before united match (also if he get booked against arsenal and Palace he will be suspended from United match, and his hamstraings get chance to rest and recuperate.

Prediction, 2-0 Chelsea, Costa and Hazard.

My guess is Mourinho will start with Willian to nullify the threat of the Ox, especially if Ivanovic is in attacking mode.

If he starts with Schurrle then that will be a clear sign of intent. Get the goals in the bag and shore up.

Very interesting comments Derek.

Mourinho normally plays Mikel in midfield to do the Darren Fletcher job, i.e. go around kicking people until he gets a yellow.

I'm not sure Mourinho will go for that approach today, nor will he need to if Wenger picks Arteta.

It would be like shooting fish in a barrel.

I thought Arteta was injured.

'Arsenal remain without Mikel Arteta and Aaron Ramsey because of respective calf and hamstring problems but Nacho Monreal may return from a back injury.' BBC.

Flamini will get roasted.

Mourinho will probably bring on Mikel if victory needs to be secured. i.e.. If we are winning.
