ujpest doza Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 What was our form like going into last years stunning victory? iirc we'd won away at Bolton and lost away to Liverpool in the preceding 2 games and had lost at home to WBA before that.

Optimistic Nut Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 I think Man U had just lost at home to Blackburn too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ujpest doza Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Looking back on dotcom we'd lost to Chelsea, Norwich and drew 0-0 in a dire game with Swansea prior to those WBA/Bolton/Liverpool games so we weren't on top form at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuy_O Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 I think Man U had just lost at home to Blackburn too. They had, which provided the usual media hysteria about how they never lose two on the bounce. Our form had dipped going into the fixture last season, with only the 0-2 at Bolton preventing our run from being shocking. We produced a performance out of nowhere for the 3-0, lets hope for another. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Actually think we'll raise our game for this. Not sure it'll be enough to win though, a score-draw would be my bet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Froggy Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Thread title I'm expecting a high scoring game to be honest. Our defence is worrying so I'm expecting to concede. I do think our attacking power will be too much for you though. I'll go 2-3. Ba with both your goals and Rooney and Van Persie sharing ours. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 A lot of these don't seem positive about this one.... http://www.redcafe.net/f11/newcastle-united-v-manchester-united-359864/ Have they not seen us this season? Also one of them thinks 'we'll be looking for a fast tempo from the off' ... Again, have they seen us this season? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 FWIW Redcafe is fairly worried about our midfield vs theirs and our front 3 vs their defence. Probably haven't seen us play all season though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Bumming is on the cards. Man utd are purring up front, with RVP and our favourite scouser hitting some form. Their defence is shaky but all they need to do is head the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzza Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 I can't see anything but a Manu win, we have been pretty shabby up to now and I can't see a huge change in us before sunday. Saylor is out judging by Pardews comments and williamson will get shat on by VP and shrek, I hope Colo is back and cabaye is fit enough and mentally ready! I would love Pards to revert to a 433 for this one, have jonas and Tiote a little deeper and cabaye with a license to roam, HBA and Ba on wings when Manu in possession then all out attack when we have the ball with Ba and Cisse all working hard but making lots of movement. Dream on! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Flash Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 I just hope we get beat. Badly. Judging by the posts in here you'd think we were playing someone unbeatable, despite them having lost more games than us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loki679 Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Kind of sums up football fans really, everyone thinks they're going to get beat. Geordies, mancs, redcafe, N-O, everyone thinks they'll lose Guess the natural state of the football fan is cynical pessimism three one to them by the way.
