    Would we have won?

    In the final third, especially the 4 on 1 with him on the ball we would have been more clinical counterattacking and maybe scored more.

    But city would have had more time to build from the back without Willian's harrying and Ramires. Hazard tracked too

    We'll never know the answer to that one! All I would say is I was seriously bothered when it was announced he was going to MU! Tonight however I feel less bothered!

    No, doesn't work hard enough.

    Team was set up to work hard off the ball but have quality on it too. They have a similar dilemma with Silva as shown by the goal.

    Wouldn't have played, and wouldn't have been as useful. Can't fault the team barring a striker today sorry.

    I think last night showed why Jose sold Mata
    great player though he was for us he just wasnt right for the team that the special one is assembling
    the work rate and high power performances of Hazard Willian and Ramires something for all his skill Mata would not be able to achieve
