Unbelievable. As controlled as I have seen us for a long time.

Even when we were ahead we didn't continue to try keep pressing high like we have recently

Unashamedly lost the plot when Amad scored

 

[ThinkTank@Cafe]

penalty exaggerates XG but nonetheless we were the better team

 

[moodyred]

MOTM is Nunes. His assist to Amad for the first goal was brilliant!

 

[Sandikan]

How on earth have this version of United just come away with a win there? Unreal sport at times.

 

[Redfrog]

One of the most pleasant thing is us not countering them and having as much possession as Pep’s team.
Amorim is bulding something. You can see it on the pitch.

Amad is made for that for that 10 role.

 

[antohan]

Absolutely buzzing.

Game was a bit shite and we know we are toothless with our wingbackless wingback formation, but at no point during the game did it feel like they deserved to be winning it.

What a pass from Licha and what a game from Amad. Outstanding.

 

[December_16]

We beat them today, comprehensively. They didn’t have any good chance outside of the setpiece goal, we missed a few good ones. Damn, never thought this was possible even a short month ago.

 

[engie92]

Stay humble eh...

 

[Ronaldo's ego]

We can thank Amad for that win but it’s two moments of individual brilliance. Attacking unit’s lack of quality is concerning, another overhaul job.

 

[Who's Kissing Cameras?]

Felt that Neville was unduly harsh on us. I actually felt our performance in the second half by and large merited something - we were by far the better side.

Agreed. He always leans away from praising us. We were very good in the second half. Shown by the xG.

 

[fps]

A terrible match. Great performance from Amad, and some others really put a shift in.

 

[Jazz]

YEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

 

[Raoul]

 

[Get In Scholesy]

I laughed out loud at 2-1. feck me that was great.

 

[Get In Scholesy]

The audacity of this man.

 

[r0663664]

Amad needs to be in the final third, his timing of the run was perfect. It was a great pass from Martinez, I wished our CB can make more of such pass.

 

[Irwin99]

Amad - 10
Every other United player - 1

Every City player - 0
Nunes - -1

A bit harsh, man

I thought quite a few of our players put in some decent shifts today (Ugarte, Maz, Martinez,) but it's just the attack is so blunt. Still I can't remember a game where we had so much possession against City. Says more about them at the moment that us, but still, I'll take it.

Amad is the star though.

 

[Zlaatan]

A late comeback against those cheats is a fantastic way to end the weekend. GET IN!

 

[cj_sparky]

GET IN THERE!!!!!

 

[Daily_Blind]

Amorim has introduced much more disciplined structure into the setup which will mean we’re unlikely to see the high scoring drubbings we’ve taken in the last few years. The key will be finding a way to score within the structure and while still keeping our shape. We pulled it off today but I think we’re going to need to bring in a few more quality players before we can consistently do this.

 

[Who's Kissing Cameras?]

Brilliant. Top 6 side away from home and we deserved the win. Big development from only a few months ago.

 

[Redfrog]

This victory is a big Feck you to Rashford and Garnacho. Thanks god we won without them.

 

[R'hllor]

Great win, weird game in general

 

[Who's Kissing Cameras?]

penalty exaggerates XG but nonetheless we were the better team

Only by 0.68 so still won overall.

 

[.Phil1968]

Wow
Just wow

 

[madzo2007]

The audacity of this man.

Audacity?? He is obviously still a supporter of the club whether hes in the team or not.

 

[hellhunter]

The audacity of this man.

How dare this man be happy for his team to win

 

[clarkydaz]

How on earth have this version of United just come away with a win there? Unreal sport at times.

You have a whole team playing for each other?

 

[Houdini]

First away win against a TOP 6 team in 3 years (since 2021 TOT). And it has to be City

 

[TsuWave]

Amad, Ugarte, Lisandro and Maguire put in great performances

 

[moodyred]

Almost 50% possession
XG 1.99 vs 0.91 (City)
Win 1-2 away.
Progress.

 

[December_16]

This victory is a big Feck you to Rashford and Garnacho. Thanks god we won without them.

Hope they pull their socks up and work harder, just like the lads on the field today. I still have hope for Garnacho, but not holding my breath for Rash.

 

[Chairman Steve]

Weird game to watch. We looked competent but blunt. City looked punch drunk.

Probably did deserve to shade the win. Amad, Ugarte and Mazraoui the standouts.

 

[Poborsky's hair]

Sure, we were a bit too cautious with the ball, but kept it well, and attacked when matter in the end. Along with great pressing we had the game under control. No more hoof the ball up when under immense pressure against top 6 oppo.

Even if we didn't win we showed we don't want to be a counter attacking side. Hope I am correct on what I am seeing in Amorim.

 

[hellhunter]

Almost 50% possession
XG 1.99 vs 0.91 (City)
Win 1-2 away.
Progress.

We actually had a slightly higher passing completion % than them

 

[RDCR07]

 

[Superden]

Add in the fact that we had nailed on pen not given and city didn't have a shot on target in the second half, that was a great performance. Some of you need a reality check expecting us to rock up at City and steam roller them. I thought Maz was awesome again, and his run for that Bruno chance was something else.

 

[crossy1686]

Thought they were crap
We were slightly better
Amad a class above
feck EtH for no playing him as well

They were poor, looking to scrape a 1-0 win at home. Their xg was 0.98, ours was over 2.

 

[Crostien]

Credit to Amorim.

Managed to not panic and got subs right. We played really well tonight and I think deserved the points.

Refused to get myself too huped up after EtH but Amorim has impressed me so far.

Keep it up!

 

[ThanksBoss26]

Always sucks you back in! A great day!

And the win sends a message, don't put the work in, you're out. No matter who you are.
