I think we should be more concerned about how we play than wondering about how they will get on without Jose .We havent gelled yet this season and times we have looked all over the place . So some of our lot need to wake up and stop relying so much on 2 or 3 players within our team .Im going for a 2-2 draw I agree, seems a bit over the top to think this match is going to be a goal fest given our results thus far or Chelsea for that matter. Sure we might have an advantage given the situation at Stamford Bridge but they still have quality players who if they find the motivation to continue winning for the club might come out stronger than some seem to think they will. I certainly hope we can beat them, but it won't be a walk in the park. If we can score multiple goals then it would be a great turn for us; I think Fergie will get the players extra motivated for this one but I sense a 1-0 result for us.

its gonna be a hard game no doubt. What we probably have to our advantage is better preparation. If the press is right and the players are struggling mentally then its even better for us. Though remember chelsea might be struggling but the likes of malouda and shaun wright phillips are having good seasons so far and they still provide a huge challenge.

Yeah all this goals galore predictions are pretty alice in wonderland stuff if you ask me. A wounded Chelski is a dangerous Chelski. I will be happy with a win, any way, beautifull or ugly. Lets not underestimate a team full of classy players. Malouda, Phillips, Shevchenko, Essien, Cole - thats enough names to keep us honest. These guys will be blaming themselves for Joses demise since there non performance had something to do with his dismissal. They are not going to lie down and will put in a strong performance against Man Utd.

The interesting thing for me will be if they're trying to change their style of football already. If so i can see us dominating them a bit more than usual, maybe not in goals but in possesion.
Hopefully Drogba and Lampard won't play, could be Mikel's first game against United at Old Trafford i think, in which case he'll be in for a warm reception.
So they lost most of their coaches, their manager and the may try to play differently after 3 days of practice, will their hearts be in it?

^some of the players will work real hard, but i think every player still will lack the mentality and hopefully united can take that advantage.

They'll be, in a way, maybe even more motivated to beat us, but might lack the tactics and concentration. I say: United! United! #unitedbanner#

What I'm more curious about now is Shevchenko's role because I'm sure he'll feature more now that Mourinho's gone.

See...this is when we need the scoring system to tell the person responsible that his comment was dumb and not appreciated. I rest my case....temporarily, as other such moments will occur soon.
