MikeyT Posted 7 August 2011 Posted 7 August 2011 So, the community shield kicks off at 3pm this afternoon. Man City V Man United. For me it doesn't have the same essence as the games between the clubs did maybe 5 or so years ago, but it should still be a tasty affair i hope. I can't say i'm fussed at who i want to win, but i'm probably 60/40 in favour of a United win.

HEGGSY Posted 7 August 2011 Posted 7 August 2011 I know its essentially a pre season friendly but if city beat united then at least they'll show they mean business this year, that said as a neutral all im looking for is a good game and dont care who wins
Haydos Posted 7 August 2011 Posted 7 August 2011 Seems to have been a bit more competitive the last few years.
Bob Weasel Fox Posted 7 August 2011 Posted 7 August 2011 Prediction: Man City 3 Man United 1, probably wrong i usually am, just got a feeling City will turn United over in this one
ramboacdc Posted 7 August 2011 Posted 7 August 2011 0-0 or someone will nick it. this game isnt going to penalties. and neither team will be wanting to lose.
fatmando Posted 7 August 2011 Posted 7 August 2011 ManUtd lineup: David de Gea Rio Ferdinand Patrice Evra Chris Smalling Nemanja Vidic Michael Carrick Anderson Wayne Rooney Danny Welbeck Ashley Young Nani Substitutes Anders Lindegaard Rafael da Silva Jonny Evans Phil Jones Tom Cleverley Ji-Sung Park Dimitar Berbatov ManCity lineup: Joe Hart Joleon Lescott Micah Richards Vincent Kompany Aleksandar Kolarov James Milner David Silva Nigel de Jong Yaya Toure Edin Dzeko Mario Balotelli Substitutes: Stuart Taylor Gael Clichy Stefan Savic Gareth Barry Adam Johnson Shaun Wright-Phillips Sergio Aguero
MikeyT Posted 7 August 2011 Author Posted 7 August 2011 Hope Cleverley gets on at some point, be good to see him play.
MikeyT Posted 7 August 2011 Author Posted 7 August 2011 aaand now onto this game You haven't missed much.
Bert Posted 7 August 2011 Posted 7 August 2011 Poor stuff from De Gea. Ray Wilkins is doing my head in.
HEGGSY Posted 7 August 2011 Posted 7 August 2011 De gea not living up to expectation but he's only a young lad I'm sure he'll come good
Mee Posted 7 August 2011 Posted 7 August 2011 Hope United get back in to this. Man City should be down to 10. Horrible tackle by Richards, only got a yellow for it though.
Fox92 Posted 7 August 2011 Posted 7 August 2011 Evra must be the most overrated left back in the World. Never rated him, and should that foul on Milner have been red? United's new goalkeeper doesn't look that good at the minute. He should have saved the second, and he did hesitate fot the first although i think Lescott lost Ferdinand. And, I think Dzeko will be good this year, now he has settled in.
ramboacdc Posted 7 August 2011 Posted 7 August 2011 The last 4 seasons those who won the community shield went on to win the premier league. ...turning of the tides in manchester?
