    City break down parked buses every week in the league. Why do we set up like this?
    We set up like this in every big game that Mourinho manages. We concede first every time and then start playing since his starting tactic never works
     
    We won 3-2 last year by taking it to them in the second half - so why would you start the game in such a defensive mindset. all our results recently have come from going behind due to being too defensive and then being forced to go on the attack (where we play a lot better and then pick up the result). No brainer to then focus on being an attack is the best form of defence side.

    We will probably play better now that we are behind.
     
    Not sure why anyone is surprised after Pogba was ruled out. Toothless without him.
     
    Terrible tactics, park the bus and hoof the ball to Fellaini. Huge gulf between the teams.
     
    Why does everyone blame Jose when it's the players who've always constantly done the same shit of not turning up the first 30 mins of every damn game.
     
    Have to begrudgingly admire the way they play both from an attacking and defensive POV. Guardiola is a great coach.
     
    I've been wishing that for a year now, but no matter what happens Ed ain't moving. It's disgraceful. Nothing influences the upper management.

    feck ed Woodward and feck the glazers for leaving him in charge of footballing matters for so long.
     
    That midfield today is very weak. Martial keeps giving the ball away too in daft positions.

    Where’s Pogba? Been out of the loop last few days!
     
    No leaders, cowards all over the pitch and no one seems to give a shit.
     
    Does everyone want Mourinho sacked again?

    (Serious)

    Why on earth would recent results have changed a well-reasoned persons mind? We've barely deserved a win against Bournemouth. We should have been hammered by Juventus but got away with it.

    The performances aren't good enough no matter if we fluke wins or not.
     
    Ok, you have a right for your opinions but I feel Pogba has been very childish in his united second stint here. He is either missing or awful in 80% of most important games and specially derbies. Doesn't know how to manage himself.
    What?:lol: I was merely enquiring as to why he is missing from the squad.
     
    Not sure why anyone is surprised after Pogba was ruled out. Toothless without him.
    Exactly. He's our most gifted and best player (shout outs to De Gea and possibly Martial/Smalling).

    We aren't good enough to lose our best player and be competitive against the best team on the league.
     
    It's getting very uncomfortable hearing my commentators talk themselves into a group orgasm over how good City are.

    feck off.
     
    This City team are so annoying. As a bunch of individual players and I just don’t see that much quality in there yet they storm past teams.

    Aguero, David Silva and Fernandinho are clearly world class. The rest I wouldn’t be that fussed with them being at United. Obviously KDB if he started.
     

    20 min

    A bit more possession for us the last few minutes, taking some of the heat of City's fast start, but we haven't made any inroads going forward yet.
    We've settled a bit now - I can see us getting back into it. Just hope the defense holds up.
