man city play rivals united!

with united's poor form, maybe city can nick/win tommorow. or, it could be an outburst by united after crashing out of the champions league!

please post prdictions or team news or opinions in this thread.

my guess, 3-1 united.

henry is the best allround player in the world in a long time. van nistlerooy scores goals, nothiung else. scholes, giggs, keane make the goals, he just hangs around the net and tapos them in, just like Gerd muller. henry can do darting solo runs, long rangers and phenomenal link up play with pires or ljunberg. yet despitew this, henry still scores more goals than ruud.

Ya miss his goal at highbury last season then?

Van Nistelrooy istn a creative player, hence why his assists are low. But he gets his goals in the words of Roy Keane "he is the most selfish player i have seen!"

You're deluded.

Henry and Ruud are 2 totally different players. Let's not forget Henry started off as a winger for Juve and Wenger molded him into the forward he is now. Ruud is more of the predatory goal scorer ready to pounce on anything, more of an out and out striker. Henry is more of the flair player. If i wanted a proper striker i'd go for Ruud, if i want more of a forward to compliment an already great striker in my team i'd go for Henry

Okay, but you don't see it as often as Henry.

If Arsenal are playing badly, they can often rely on Henry to help them out.

If Man Utd are playing badly they haven't got anyone to rely on.

Fulham game??

Henry is a allround player, where as RVN is just a goalscorer.

You never see RVN taking corners, free-kicks and running from the halfway line like Henry.

Heh, he NEVER passes.

Probably because whenever he's got the ball it usually ends up in the back of the net, he doesn't need to pass the ball :-D
