United dish up negative rubbish until City score then they expose the frailties of the wondrous City side in minutes. United are pathetic to play defensive football with all their attacking riches. What is the point. I hope it's a draw and Spurs show them how to play next week.
Too true. With the pace and movement of Rashford, Martial and Lingard and the power of Lukaku, why be afraid?
The first time Utd attacked them, they looked very vulnerable.
 
Both sides make a sub at half-time. Doesn't happen very often and they're both due to injury, I think.

I expect the Pochettino staff will study this game exactly
as they did for the first PL clash with Citeh last season.
The supposed "attacking" sides Dortmund/Madrid/Liverpool
soon got the message.
 
Jesus subbed off for Mangala. Fernandinho back into the midfield, I guess.
Bit early to have made two subs. Will that come back to haunt him?
 
United playing to the strengths of City. I thought these guys were supposed to be amazing managers?
 
It's all got a bit filthy. Lots of players leaving one in, leading with the arm and diving.
 
2-1 FT. 11 points clear and it's a long way back for anyone to challenge them.
Everyone above us apart from them dropped points this weekend, though. That's decent for us.

Back to how it was for us awhile ago when us and City were winning plenty and the others were all slipping up.
 
I suppose they deserved it.
But their goals had a bit of good fortune.
The officiating was s****
And the tactics were wrong. They have weaknesses. Teams have to be brave enough to take them on rather than try to contain them.

EDIT: Oh - and they earned me three points in the prediction league :confused:
