Manchester City 4:1 Manchester United

FrankDrebin · Mar 6, 2022

Fixing United is going to take atleast 2 campaigns though. I mean Mata and Jones are still involved in the squad :lol:

.
Going to take just as long moving on Maguire and such, especially with our laughable owners.

Wish we had a manager over the past 7 odd years that would have the balls to tactically set up in the same way like city do. Beek and lingard in midfield with matic as the holding mid and a front 3 of elanga, bruno and sancho

Ten Hag, so soon.

Two of those don’t have time on their side.
One of them is a criminal.
One isn’t good enough, and the other is out of form.

I know all of that. But, considering the optimism that we had at the start of the season and the wealth of attacking talent we had, it's disappointing that we've ended up in this spot.

Commentators always gush over Foden

He's English and brilliant, hardly a surprise.

We've had the easiest run of fixtures by far. Let's see how many chances we create against real teams over the next few. I'm not optimistic

Yea it’s a shame Rangnick can’t slot in as a striker to finish off those chances.

M Bison · Mar 6, 2022

Excellent defending from Maguire.

kouroux · Mar 6, 2022

Shocking from Pogba there.

48 hours · Mar 6, 2022

Maybe we could try something unexpected and actually mark KDB

It was AWB getting beaten too easily and Lindelof allowing the goal scorer all the space in the world, only reacting when he realised his mistake.

The Maguire blame will happen either way. Even if it's bullshit.

Ah, it was all of them.

None of them did anything right.

Deery · Mar 6, 2022

No comparison between DeBruyne and Pogba.

Anustart89 · Mar 6, 2022

Just the three or four fouls from City there as we tried to break out from our half

Woodenlung · Mar 6, 2022

Nobody is picking up De Bruyne. McTominay and Fred aren't shielding a thing

Pscholes18 · Mar 6, 2022

Progba, muppet.

Barring the goal it’s not been a bad start.

goal itself, I’m not sure who should’ve been marking KDB, but either Telles or Fred would be my guess. Maguire has to go over to mark Foden, not his fault this time.

AWB I think. There's far too many players over there but nobody except Lindelof is pressing
(and that's a problem because it takes him out of position).

Shows you the type of fouls City get away with normally, they're totally aghast if anything goes against them.

Walrus · Mar 6, 2022

Ref is really not giving us much at all here. Typical of Oliver.

Turnip · Mar 6, 2022

Are we allowed to say that was good defending by Maguire?

Murder on Zidanes Floor · Mar 6, 2022

Pogba every time.

First, that’s not saying much. Second, City are toying with us.

They absolutely aren't. We've had most of the decent play. But defending was a joke on the goal and you can't do that against City

laughtersassassin · Mar 6, 2022

Looked a penalty to me

Just stayed strong and stood up. Never a pen.

Irrational. · Mar 6, 2022

City are so fecking boring to watch.

sunama · Mar 6, 2022

By our standards are playing really well.
The problem is that MCFC are still beating us when we are having a good game.

tyunited · Mar 6, 2022

De Bruyne is always in space

MayosNoun · Mar 6, 2022

Maguire very lucky there. He’s very clumsy.

Hester_manc · Mar 6, 2022

De Bruyne is the biggest difference between us and them so far. He is one of the 2-3 best in the world as I see it - and I hate him.

German commentary adamant that's a penalty

Jones played one game and actually really played well but he was not given another chance.

Football can be a funny game. Derbies even more so.

I always think back to when we were good and City were, well, City, and the derby was still always a battle. Can't recall any easy games against them. So I get you, but I'm finding it hard to have any faith right now!

I hope your prediction comes true!

James35 · Mar 6, 2022

Maguire using the Smalling playbook, when severely lacking in ability just grab the fecker and hope.

Foxbatt · Mar 6, 2022

Isn't it the fault of Lindelof?

acnumber9 · Mar 6, 2022

Two defensive midfielders and De Bruyne still manages to be unmarked constantly.

Annihilate Now! · Mar 6, 2022

Not a foul on Maguire, but not a pen either... Both had each others shirts

mu4c_20le · Mar 6, 2022

Maguire manhandling someone again :lol:

some people actually said he would be good under Pep

M Bison · Mar 6, 2022

Turnip said:

don’t be daft, only when something goes wrong (whether it’s Maguire at fault or not..) are we allowed to reference him.

Judas · Mar 6, 2022

It's amazing that no coach has ever told Pogba to give it a rest with the excessive shielding of the ball instead of passing it.

Greck · Mar 6, 2022

On the replay of the goal from the top angle you can see our midfielders just ballwatching while City overload our box.

Sassy Colin · Mar 6, 2022

I thought Maguire did well there, but the replay made it look like a penalty.
