City will be feeling extremely confident with Pogba out. A point would be a huge result for us in the circumstances.

They must be so relieved he's not playing .

[Black can man]

Sir Bobby still looks in good nick.

Not just on your side

Look how the City players press and rush United players. There’s at least two of them on every United player. Look how United let City run with the ball and pass it around with no pressure.

Poor from DG there.

And Linda. We are never alive to that one, two and balls into the channel and behind us. That’s been a problem all season.

Excluding Everton, United haven’t scored first in a game and gone on to win it since September. They rarely score first and that’s not a sign of a team playing well.

City are ripping them apart

United aren't showing much ambition are they.

Getting the ole's now.

[Black can man]

City stuttering.

[ORD]

Come on Utd! Back in this and just need to press on. City looked very shaken.

[ORD]

Never even tried to get the equaliser. Horrid last 20 mins. Lukaku? Really? He’s so bad.

[graylag]

Dead and buried. Shadow of a team, not even an attempt to try to equalise and taught a lesson by a far superior team.

[200Plus Club]

Defenders went walkabout. Thete had been a slim chance of a late equaliser but that's watching get for sleeping against top teams

[ORD]

Shambles, really. Mid-table side at the moment.

[selym]

Ole football.

[57Ford]

They’ve got quick feet, sharp minds & great movement. We’ve not really shown any of it today but what we have got is far less anyway.

[Alpinestars]

City are clearly a much better side but I think they were worried, and playing pretty defensively at 2-1. But with donkey up front, there was never much to worry about.

We’re terrible at defending through balls and the midfield doesn’t connect with the attack. End of a decent run.

[200Plus Club]

It wasn't anything other than where the two teams are at present. City are playing top quality and utd aren't but we weren't embarrassed and city were nervy toward the last few mins. Their passing moves for the 3rd goal were sublime tbh it was well worked and killed it.
Pretty much sums up the current difference in quality in the two teams, nothing new here for me.

Don't you go throwing toys out again it's a defeat nothing more. We've been getting better if you recall only a few days ago...
