Crud game. Our shape was good all game. We looked well drilled etc. Atkinson is an absolute bellend of a ref. Fellaini naive? Yes, but that was the softest red you'll see all year.
 
Cons: Biggest domination we have been at the receiving end of that I can ever remember. No joy in watching that game what so ever. Although with all the shots and possession, City didn't really have any very clear cut chances.

Pros: 24 games unbeaten. Our team, regardless of the ever changing back 4, are the best in the league when it comes to defending.

Could've won it with Miki and Herreras chances.

I'll take 1 point all day.
 
It is becoming boring to be so much defensive against our biggest rivals. In all four matches against City and Liverpool, Mourinho has shit himself.

Lets also hope that Fellaini convinced Mourinho today that he should not be trusted and with some luck we saw the last of him for us. A totally pointless player who offer nothing unless you play long ball, and who is a twat of highest order in the pitch, and who can leave the team down any moment.
 
I'll take this. Tactical masterclass from Jose. Knew he had a team decimated by injuries. No way we could go toe to toe with City. The bus had to be parked and hit on the break. Could not afford to lose this game and we didn't. Next game.
 
United doing what away teams do at Old Trafford. The word Neville used a number of times of United's performance is resilient.
 
Worst game of the season. No appetite at all.

Clearly injuries are hurting us, but even still that was terrible.

I guess Mourinho figured a draw would do and conserve the players, or simply we are just not good enough and missing key players.
 
Won't have 11 players available by the end of the season if it carries on like this...
 
Good defensively, nothing going forward (though 2 clear cut chances were missed). That happens when you miss players like Ibra, Pogba and Mata though and you're playing away to a ground we are always shite in.
 
Happy with the draw but feck me, this wasn't worth staying up so late for. Good result though. Fellaini's a moron btw.
 
Ref stole 3pts from us in the first game, this was a battle.. Cheating works better than playing these days..
 
We were rubbish but plenty of injuries and a busy schedule. Good point.
 
considering the amount of money we have spent our squad is still wild average. woodward gotta have a look at this.

I mean, we had a 36 year old, fellaini and darmian starting a game of this magnitude. rashford and martial are good talents for the future but i also don't think they should be leading the line just yet. blind isn't even a CB, and even valencia could be upgraded.

that's 6/7 out of 10 outfield players that i don't think should be in our starting 11. so yeah, squad lacks quality.
Its almost like we have 6 first team players out.

We do need another top quality CM though.
 
Fellaini killed any chance of us nicking the win. Too old to be naive like this.

Disappointed in the players in that they weren't good enough to keep the ball at all in the second half.
 
I'll take the draw, but I really hope we don't see this type of performance again in the future.

Only 3 shots. 31% possession. No attacking intent.

We're not playing 2011 Barcelona. We showed them far too much respect.
 
Poor performance, but probably not an awful result in the end considering we could've easily lost.
 
Big point for the top 4 chase and thats all i care about
 
I'm looking on the bright side, we gained a point on Liverpool and with in 2 now plus game in hand.

Because fellaini is a dick and got a straight red we won't be seeing him for 3 games.

2 positives from an otherwise awful game
 
I'm happy with a point but it was a little pathetic for us to virtually sit back and defend against City for 90 minutes.
 
Fantastic point. I cheered that final whistle.
Beat Swansea on Sunday and really put Liverpool under pressure on Monday night.

Completely ignoring that we have a massive injury list including at least 4 players who probably would have started the game tonight...

Tell me another team who would go away to City without there top scoring striker, top scoring midfielder, most balanced midfielder, and two of their best 3 CB's and then moan about the squad after earning a point?
 
Pogba was badly missed, the game plan was good. Atkinson and Sky were crap.
 
Mkhitaryan was a joke today. Wondering how we could spend near £30m for a player of this quality with 1 year left on his contract.
 
Horrific performance, but great result. I honestly don't know how we got that point. Genuinely thought Jesus scored which would have meant watching that shit for 92 minutes and not getting anything...
