It goes to show that all some players need is a chance. Many on here were shouting for him and Young to be sold. At the end of the day it's all down to the manager to put faith in the players. I remember one manager saying he'd never drop a player if he's doing well in training but playing badly in games.

Rojo's not as good as Blind going forward and other than a lack of pace, Blind's the better defenderBringing on Rojo for Blind wouldn't be such a bad idea imo
It's shocking how badly Mata and Fellaini were mismanaged by Moyes. Fellaini was from Everton too, that's just shocking. Credit to LVG for bringing the best out of both.So far so good, need to keep the level of intensity we finished the half with in to the second. There is more goals in this game I feel though.What is the odd of a red card now?
He has been much better since his shambolic start to be fair. Was probably a smart move from them.
Kompany was a doubt for this game initially I think. And I'm almost certain I saw him checking his hamstring near the end of the half, think just after the 'tackle'? Him being on a yellow and potentially carrying an injury makes it a no brainer
Bit unfair to Fellaini and YoungRecovered well from a poor start but playing well now and Kompany really should be off. More of the same please.
Looked like he injured himself when lunging at Blind.
Fellani not too far behind...Hargreaves is a pretty shit pundit. He's been talking lots of nonsense.City will pile forward for the first 15..hope we can keep them out
Herrera has been better than Fellaini but Young has been the best player on the pitch.
Their dissatisfaction that we'd scored...you could hear the agony in their voices. 'He's gotta back into him, he can't let him get in front of him'
They really need to have Yorkie or Ole in the studio on days like this. A Scouse legend and a City legend as pundits..? May as well give Gerrard a guest appearance!
Exactly. He only does things for attention, it's like he's a baby at times.City to fly out the blocks second half, need to sustain them in the first 15mins or so. Valencia and Jones look dodgy. Hope they don't cost usIt was then I knew I had to be a footballer...LvG have made great use of Young, Valencia, Smalling, Fellaini and Valencia. Funny since I wanted them all gone last season..
6 of one, half a dozen of the other. It MAY have been a red but it's a clear yellow. The ref went with the lesser of the two evils.Start to the 2nd half is going to be important.. If we can hold off their push, we can go for it at the end with Di Maria coming on vs tired legs. I'm very sure that players are going to be knacered by the 65th-70th minuteIt's glorious that Kompany has been bleating to the press this entire week about the game and now captain kangaroo is being subbed at half time for being reckless and shit. Fantastic stuff.It's a shame Komany's coming off, I was sure he'd get sent off today.
That's what makes me laugh. Moyes already had Fellaini as a player for years and he almost destroyed his career.
Very close between those three (for the first half) but I would go for Young. A goal and an assist, hard to argue against it. Fellaini on the other side won everything in the air and scored a goal, while Ander is running the midfield and schooling City players every time they're near him.Awful start but we grew into the game. Kompany should have been sent off but to be fair to Clattenberg he consulted his Linesman and he was told it was a yellow, City have taken him off at half time now to stop him being sent.
We CANNOT afford to start the 2nd half like we did the 1st. come on lads!Not sure I wanted to see Kompany off. Think back to Liverpool.
ThisYeah just like I said. Something went in his thigh.
Skating over the tackle again...We will score more. City are a bit clueless at the back.Kompany subbed off. Inevitable. Just like Bellerin who should have been off when we played Arse.
Probably but FIFA says that refs aren't privileged to the benefits of a camera review.
That's what I was just thinking. We'll have to match it.Does anyone else hate the live table? Game isn't over yet.They showed the tackle yet still don't mention it. DickheadsKompany off second half
That was you wasn't it! It gave me nightmares
Hoping for a similar second half! 4-1 UnitedSubstitution for Manchester City
Half-time change, Kompany replaced by Mangala. Looks like his injury has flared up.Fellaini has been absymal before his goal, I wouldn't call him best player on the pitch. Herrera and Young has been great, De Gea of course too.- Status
