lgfualol Posted 30 January 2015 Posted 30 January 2015 Bet you didnt expect Schlupp would be getting compared to Di Maria this time last year.
Bob Weasel Fox Posted 30 January 2015 Posted 30 January 2015 I think if we have a go at them we stand a chance If we revert to type and just try and cling on for an hour it's a guaranteed 2-0 defeat
Guest Col city fan Posted 30 January 2015 Posted 30 January 2015 I think if we have a go at them we stand a chance If we revert to type and just try and cling on for an hour it's a guaranteed 2-0 defeat I think it's about how we start buddy. Go one nil down early doors, it could easily be 3/4. We have to shut up shop for at least 30 to give us a chance.
LanguedocFox Posted 30 January 2015 Posted 30 January 2015 I watched most of the Cambridge Man U game last weekend. I know it's a different competition against lower-league opposition and there will be a different line up tomorrow, but the Man U players did seem a bit slow, and when Cambridge ran at their defence, they didn't seem to like it. So I hope that we use our speed when we have the ball, rather than either lumping it forwards or trying to pass it across the line. If we play Schlupp and Albrighton on the wings, we have real pace to get round the back, and both Ulloa and Kramaric will really be up for it. I still think we will be lucky to get anything out of the match, but I think if we try to defend too deep I fear we will get hammered.

Absolutely Col we can't go gung ho straight away but we must at some point take the game to them and have a go, after all they are beatable Can't sit back for the whole game and hope for a 0-0 for sure
Renart Posted 30 January 2015 Posted 30 January 2015 Ok guys, Signing off for the weekend! My brother's train is pulling into St Pancras; time for a few beers. Early start in the morning: on the 09:20 train out of Euston. Fingers crossed for a result tomorrow. I will let you know what the prawn sandwiches taste like!
AKCJ Posted 30 January 2015 Posted 30 January 2015 How much would you value Schlupp at? I.e. what would it take for a club to sign him?
DANGEROUS TIGER Posted 30 January 2015 Posted 30 January 2015 I think it's about how we start buddy. Go one nil down early doors, it could easily be 3/4. We have to shut up shop for at least 30 to give us a chance. We probably do need half an hour, in which to settle down, but we have to go for it in the last 15 minutes of the first half. Well, what do I know, anyway?
whoareyaaa Posted 30 January 2015 Posted 30 January 2015 I'd go.. Schzwar Simpson Was Wes Koncheksy Albritghton Hammond Cambiasso Schluup Kram Ulloa Think we will get a win tomorrow myself.
Foxylady64 Posted 30 January 2015 Posted 30 January 2015 I can remember the same weekend last year when we we're away to Bournemouth there was huge concern on here for that game to be on, the weather that weekend was so bad! However United have got under soil heating and all that, so I think it's extremely unlikely the game will be under threat. Speaking of United anyone seen this news article http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2930111/Man-United-tell-season-ticket-holders-splash-50-Cambridge-FA-Cup-replay-banned-Sunderland-game.html "Man u fans" should boycott the game. Disgusting
LanguedocFox Posted 30 January 2015 Posted 30 January 2015 "Man u fans" should boycott the game. Disgusting To be fair, the cost of a rail ticket from Reigate to Manchester is bloody extortionate these days.
Mayofox Posted 30 January 2015 Posted 30 January 2015 Since 5-3 Manure have played 19 matches, only losing twice (at Man C & at home to Southampton). They are making progress under Van Gall, but it's slow and painstaking. After us they've Burnley & Sunderland at home, so they will be anticipating an easy spell ahead. If we can play this with confidence, and not just try to shut them out, we could get more than a draw from this. PS. Was at OT once, having bought a ticket from a Man U fan, main stand, bout 6 rows back. Lineker scored. It's not nice, surrounded by 1000's of Mancs sitting still, as you're the only one leaping and shouting...
Mark_w Posted 30 January 2015 Posted 30 January 2015 Since 5-3 Manure have played 19 matches, only losing twice (at Man C & at home to Southampton) ... If we can play this with confidence, and not just try to shut them out, we could get more than a draw from this. You're really selling it.
weller54 Posted 30 January 2015 Posted 30 January 2015 How much would you value Schlupp at? I.e. what would it take for a club to sign him? 10m!
SecretPro Posted 30 January 2015 Posted 30 January 2015 I think it's about how we start buddy. Go one nil down early doors, it could easily be 3/4. We have to shut up shop for at least 30 to give us a chance. No no no no no! We have ****ed up so many times this years shutting up shop with a 1-0 lead, against some big teams we have shut up shop at 0-0. Been OK in the FA cup however when we have shut up shop in the prem the pressure we have invited upon ourselves has been overwhelming and ultimately cost us.
yorkie1999 Posted 30 January 2015 Posted 30 January 2015 You expect Man Utd to score at least 2 goals, therefore we have to score 3 so we just can't sit back. Simple.
Bluetintedspecs Posted 30 January 2015 Posted 30 January 2015 With Carrick out for them and their fan base getting restless, I have a good feeling about us sneaking it tomorrow. COYB
AKCJ Posted 30 January 2015 Posted 30 January 2015 Had dinner with a United season ticket holder tonight. He's delighted that Carrick is injured because, as much as he rates him, United play too slow against the smaller clubs when he starts. He says that Herrera will play and we won't be able to live with them. Big, big test for the City midfield whoever starts really.
Clever Fox Posted 30 January 2015 Posted 30 January 2015 If we play Albrighton on the wing I think we could sneak it. Someone is going to have to watch Di Maria or crock him early.

dorsetboy Posted 31 January 2015 Posted 31 January 2015 this may sound weird but with united playing a back 3 they always seem to look vunerable against pace down the sides id really be tempted to go for 3-5-2 this game with 2 decent holding midfielders and speed down the flanks and a good link between the cam and the strikers -------------------------------------schzwar----------------------------------- ------------moore----------------wes-------------------was----------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- de laet--------------------------------------------------------------schlupp---- -----------------------cambiasso--------james--------------------------------- ----------------------------------nugent----------------------------------------- ----------------------vardy--------------------krameric---------------------------
