Really hope Harry is ready for Saturday. Without him in the League cup we were torn apart for 45 minutes. Great thing is he is willing and able to play through the pain barrier..unlike some CBs we have on the books

Man Utd 2:0 Man City
Very good tonight, once again.
A proper captains performance. No he’s not world class but he’s a great team player.
Proper defender this guy. He is a great signing.
First half wasn't immense from him. Picked up in the second half. I wonder if he really was injured but played through.
If only he was a little bit faster. Decent enough performance.
I thought he was immense today.
Had a couple of poor moments, but overall that was great
Thought he was the weak point in our defense at times. Still a good performances.
I thought he was our motm. His last ditch tackle, clearance & header. Spot on. Bissaka was great today while Martial showed some great moments not just the goal but I thought Maguire was the key for that clean sheet today.
Bar couple of moments, he was very good.
He wasn’t that great today. Poor in the first half. Better in the second. Not sure what game everyone else watched. Perhaps a little swayed by the result.
Difficult start, Aguero was provoking errors from him in the beginning, then after Martial's goal he was intercepting almost everything.
Immense yet again. He's become exactly what we hoped for when we signed him. A wall defensively, and very composed on the ball. Love him.
Think he was a bit off in first half and made some small unusual mistakes and mistimed some situations, but stepped up to normal top class in second half.
A couple of dodgy moments in the first half but grew as the game progressed. Came out with the ball well a few times as well.
Hope his ankle doesn't swell up tonight.
That was Williams. No comparison.
Imperial.
If only we had signed him a year early, Mourinho would still be our manager...
It’s difficult to underestimate just how important it is that he can play every single minute.
He wasn’t moving very well today, he was pulling lots of in-pain faces, like he was playing with an injury.
He led the team from the back, he was important and its no coincidence that we keep getting clean sheets with him in the team.

He was my MOTM today. His positioning is spot on all the time. A true Leader and defender.
Bar a couple of moments he was immense.
I think you could tell this was one of those games he pushed through a bit of pain to play. A trait necessary in a leader like that at the back.
A stand out in our 3 man defence. A few dodgy tackles, but he made up with being good in everything else. It is pretty obvious he needs a fast and imposing partner to match his all action style.
He is a big boss. Great defending, leader and great with the ball at his feet.
Shades of Demichelis vs Rashford in the first half with that challenge on Aguero. Done well after that.
Felt he had quite a few sloppy moments first half. Giving the ball away or weak on the tackle but 2nd half more than made up for it.
Good in defense - had a sloppy moment in 1st half when he got nutmegged.
2nd half he missed with 3 unnecessary long passes when we were under a lot of pressure, and just had won the ball back. It was really annoying that our captain didn't keep his cool and kept passing the ball more around. All three times - there were no chance of us counter-attacking - as we had passed it around for 4-5 passes before he decided to play it long when he had short options, and he was not under pressure. Good think City didn't do much with the ball today - but giving it away for nothing is generally a bad idea.

Thank God we waited to sign him then.
I agree, I expect he might sit out mid week, but then again hes also a proper warrior so he might still want to play on.
Was he really an injury doubt? 
Absolute imperious at the back today. Kept Aguero quiet and dealt with anything that came his way. Yes a few of his passes did go astray but overall he was as solid as a rock at the back.

I thought he was really sloppy with his passing today and had a few uncharacteristically poor defensive headers.
Think his best performance was almost the post-game interview with MUTV, where he says the fans deserve it for the support and atmosphere, and that they deserve the three points for when they go to work monday morning and have the bragging rights.
What a humble man he is.

I thought he was crap, scuffed nearly every clearance, some awful passing as well. Lindelof was immeasurably better than him.
Almost certainly was carrying the injury, and would have give him a lot of pain, but he appears to be old school in where you play with and through injuries. Hope he has a rest Thursday.
He had a dodgy first 20 minutes or so but recovered well. Overall, I'd say he had a good game. He has had an exceptional month or so overall.
He was stretching and looking after his leg(s?) almost throughout the entire second half so it was obvious he was carrying something.
So much over rating of Maguire on here. He is good in the situations he feels comfortable in but take him out of his comfort zone and he is a calamity waiting to happen. Have no faith in him going forwards, hope I'm wrong but I grit my teeth every time someone runs at him or in behind him.
Nice lad, and obviously a model professional though which is great to see. Just needs more pace which unfortunately you can not coach.
