Actually glad it's been a damp squib, shows up Sky and their relentless push to hype up any game with incessant promos.
(Apparently Chelsea Leeds is the next classico)Good half from us. City extremley negative with their 2 DMs and over recycling of the ball. This isnt poor as Gary says, Its by design. Pep is shit scared of countersShit game, both teams scared to commit anything. Hopefully Fred is fine to go on. Might be tempted to put Martial on for Pogba, push him to the left and Rashford right to have more attacking threat.Happy with that. Think we look good.
Reckon City will up it 2nd half.Dunno about anyone else but I'd take this at FTI think we may live to regret not testing them a bit more.
They played with very little intensity and I can’t see them coming out for the second half as flat, Pep will surely get into them and make a change because they’ve been relatively poor.Fairly even game, very much like when Chelsea game a few weeks ago. It’s a game neither can lose but a draw allows you to fight again another day.
If we sorted our passing out, we’d have been in a few timesNot a bad half, shame we’ve not been able to capitalise on a rather tame looking City, but they weren’t going to go for the high line considering what happened last season. Need to seize the initiative though, weve been a bit lacklustre in attack, not fully committed.City were crap that half but still cut us wide open. Think we’ve got a chance here though we’ve been okay.United is dominating the game. Negative posts to positive ones proportion 10:1.If only we finished one of our chances.
We miss cavaniExpecting City to up the ante in the second half, just a matter of whether we respond in kind or go to pieces.
His bottom level is asleep mate.I'm happy with that. We have been terrible in first halves so far so nice to just get through without getting ripped to shreds. Need to show a bit more of a goal threat second half now.Watching AWB and McT try to play out of press is just something else.
Only a win for me.Is Rashford aware a match has broken out? He’s about as lively as a dead treeDecent half from us, we have been the better side. Ole needs to tell them to come out like they're 1 nil down! They're there to be beaten... they're nothing special really.Fred has been great. The rest, not so much.
City are certainly trying to test the idea.
It has draw written all over doesn't it.Even game. We've maybe shaded it with an extra shot or two.Its been the kind of game many of us expected us to play midweek: careful, deliberate, a little slow. City have only really caught us on our heels a couple of times. If we get our set pieces or final ball right we will have a chance to nick this. However, its important to manage the game come what may. A draw today is not fatal.Cagey half but that probably suits us. For once we haven't sleepwalked through the opening 15 minutes, and our corners have been surprisingly decent. City had the best chance though.
Bruno's weighting of his passes is a bit off and a couple of promising moves got away from us because of it. But not awful so far.
Fred doing the Zidane turn at the end
Good first half from United in terms of shape and discipline. Passing from the centre backs has been very mixed. First goal will be very important.I think Gary Neville is being a bit unfair to us. He’s going on about how poor City look when I think we’ve been solid, good shape and pressed well. Nullified them. Both teams a bit cagey but it’s understandable for us. It’ll open up after the hour mark and it’s anyone’s game really.Bruno will be happy with that. A good halftime talk from him will help while Ole collects the power bar wrappers.First halfs this season have been a waste of my timeWould like to see Cavani on for Rashford.City are as shit as we are
Little hyperbolic on my part.
Should have been dropped for today regardless. Doing decently today thankfully.Atleast we're not losing. We tend to lose at this ground.We are playing well. Not giving ManCity to many chances wich is positive. Good at corners wich is something new. Keep holding the ball and try finding space behind their midfield.
Feels like chess game.Bare in mind we're usually shite in the first half. So i'd take 0-0 thus far.That was an interesting half. Both teams negating the other.Need quite decent. Means little if we cinceed first and don't win thoughShould have played this team in midweek and we would have still been in the CL.Decent half. City had the best chances, but United looks more stable and comfortable. If city was more clinical, they would be ahead.- Status
