Oh I agree. Seems to be wasted this season.

Pep wants them to dominate possession, recycle the ball and wait for the perfect time to strike and score.

This is why Haaland is struggling, he's stopped trying to find space in the build up because he gets the ball so rarely.

There was a point in the added on time against Arsenal where he lost his marker and would've got a shot away and Bernardo turned back with the ball instead of a simple 15 yard pass to him.

It baffles me why we don't mix it up and get the ball into his feet if he's in the box - he thrives on making a yard and shooting and if it doesn't come off at least it's getting him in the game.

this. we need more random stuff, not just the odd long ball from the keeper.

We play better without Haaland lol

job done in tricky conditions. now over to brighton, and (let me get my mouthwash ready) manyoo.

Strange how when Grealish takes people on and gets the ball over - not a cross, a pass - City often score. Just sayin’ like …

Come on United

given the action in the game, you have to take that.

if any of the 3 teams wins 7 out of 7 now, they deserve the pot.

I’m a United fan, but there aren’t many teams who can go to Madrid and do this. And that’s without really bringing Haaland in the game (though you could argue his presence causes space for others) and without KDB.

Foden is class which is good news for the England squad.

gvardiol has really come to the fore in this game. him and grealish on the left has been very good.

Cluckin hell.

The movement forward tonight has looked slow and plodding at times. Clueless even... .

That's the season in jeopardy.

3-3 at the berniebowl? hardly a disaster.

I meant Foden's injury.
