Man City v Man Utd

Does anyone remember when this game would be considered a big game?

yes, the year denis law scored for city and relegated united.

city will still be too strong for utd today. 3-1

Rashford dropped.Why would the drop their best player??

he's only their best player when he puts effort in. he's made his money, he's not bothered anymore

looks like utd manager took my advice from a month ago to ganacho either put a proper pair of socks on and at least look like a footballer,OR FOOK OFF
apparently the utd fan who ganacho told to get on the pitch and show us how its done a few weeks ago has just texted ganacho and asked if he can borrow his boots

Amorim has to go for dropping Uniteds star player,has he gone mad.

Ten HAG done the same with Sancho and got fired

guilt and shearer at newcastle

rashford hasnt been a star for a few years now.

Ifeel sorry for Marcus,all the great games he has played,and all the great goals he has scored,What a rotten club United are.

Carabao cup is priority, innit.

Antony on the bench ahead of Garnacho & Rashford.

I don't think the message could be any clearer

Rashford might be better going abroad

Christ. I had 50p on Mount to have a shot on target

Sorry SNC. I don't work on a Sunday.

A pity this

What ever happened to English football

Manager picked a side he trusts to put a shift in..man city look almost gone..think utd will wear them out..fkin crap game so far

Shockingly bad City , its beyond a bit of fatigue this

United are bad as well

Typical

Haha you can count on me to get things wrong

Kyle Walker a red for simulation?

It was embarrassing the way he went down. 100% trying to get a man sent off.

City have a massive weakness

...but the United management ain't sussed it

Jesus..de bryne set pieces sum the game up..

It's boring stuff. Pity the poor saps who bought tickets.

Mason mountain of money for nothing ..injured again..i did think he was a proper player once upon a time

Schar got sent off v Southampton, and folk said it was correct

Makes you laugh to see grown men falling down when touched.

But referee decides what happens next, and they support him until
caught making videos...

At least it's correct today.

ADMAH neen to the inzaghi school of how to stay onside, IE don't bother

INZAGHI once called the lino a cheat for saying he was onside

Never see haaland offside, or at least I can't remember seeing him offside

United too slow

Need one touch where they are taking two

“It would seem to be a very easy rule that anybody who simulates like Walker did should receive at least the punishment that they were trying to trick the ref into giving the other player,” suggests Adam. “So if you pretend someone headbutted you and fling yourself to the floor like a prat, off you go and have some time in the stands to think about what you’ve done.”

doku, nunez, current gundo and Silva wouldn't be within a zillion miles of getting in cities best team in last few yrs

its frightening and cant be all football based that GREALISH cant get a start in front of nunez,doku and current form of Silva

Grealish should be at spurs or Chelsea,

No idea why doku still on the pitch..is girlish that bad these days that this performance keeps him on his ass

Opta stats are the cause.

All the coaches,pundits,analyise these stats.so it boils down to 97% pass completion.
So players and agents suss,just play for the stats,don’t risk anything.let someone else lose possession.
No one now tries to create a goal,it’s just pass the parcel,easy game,not my fault.

The defenders these days are the only positive players,cos they ve no other options.

As you so rightly say comingup..i get so annoyed when there is an interception midfield..defence out of sinc and the interceptor chooses a 30 yard ball back to the defence rather than risk possession..football getting a  bit crap at times  now

Feck me doku even missed the foul

getting caught in possces,been fouled all the time like sila does now is a tell tale sign  of you've lost the little half yard even the slowest have at their best

United really are shyte

This is an awful City side , it's mid table as well

Shocking..

Get in

Bruno the immuno

United came to not be embarrassed.

Be hilarious if United won it imagine Peps face

Double shocking

no idea where they got him from,how much he cost but been saying it for months that Nunez is worst player I've seen in a city shirt since pep arrived, no idea what he,s supposed to be doing

Anybody else sign Amad for fantasy football team this week

I've just had a wa*k

You beauty

Fook off Pep you tongue swilling loon you

They bought him from wolves

nunez just been absolute **** at winger,right back and centre back in 90 secsw ,that must be a record,

Pep will need a strait jacket if it stays like this

Well done Utd but f**k me the likes of Haaland and Foden truly confirming they are dog5hit flat track bullies. Take Rodri etc.. out and any urgency and these 2 clowns cannot step up to the plate.

Fancy leaving 5 minutes before time...

Haaland giving it the big one how he likes staring into space on ling flights. Guy is a grade A c**t imho

Literal goal hanger with no other ability.

JOB DONE

JOB DONE

Jack Grealish swings in the ball from a corner on the left, but it is nowhere near a teammate.

Sums his whole career up. Guy is total w**k

Spursey Citeh

That really was like waiting for a bus.

Wonder if Pep will be proud of his players...

Seems to be his safe answer at the minute

Hanging on at 1-0 v citeh and going for it on 80 mins
has been a holy grail for Premier League teams for years.

Citeh strugglin...

How can City be this bad, six months after being unbeaten in the league for almost six months last season and winning the CL? They are missing one player ffs...

Because it's an effort based system, take away the incentive to get
back to super high levels and the levels are gone.

Plus of course it takes so much out mentally and physically to have
had 2 epic battles in past 2 years to win title and sometimes you can't get
back there for a while

Anyone know what price United traded at before their first goal? Thanks

5/4. it was City

because city play on the edge,keeping the ball,back their passing right from the keeper if the confidence goes throughout the team ,it collapses easily and quickly.city played more hopefgul 60 yds punts today than they played all last season,they can only play one way so not easy to see how the confidence comes back
bog average players like doku,noonez, Lewis,GREALISH,kovavcec, gondo { now  think their going to get carried by fodden,kdb,Alfie,Silva etc ,instead their having to try and carry the stars at the moment

At one point I saw united at 55

100/1 for pennies and 95/1 for £3 odd
