It's clever. There are many times I wish our players had that intelligence to just kill momentum of the opposition.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran are here to talk about a frustrating 2 points dropped at Crystal Palace. They then discuss the regeneration of Old Trafford. Finally, Nik is joined by special guest Michael Statham from the Football Oranje podcast - who gives us a more in depth look at our EL opposition FC Twente, and then runs through the (many) Dutch connections currently at United.
Arsenal will crumble here.
Was that a heat stoppage in the rain or something? 
Read that as epstein for a second
Based on nothing, of course.
Was that a heat stoppage in the rain or something?
Goalkeeper faking an injury
Looked like a pen
I'd forgotten how sh!t City fans are when they aren't winning...
Doku is actually a horrible player to watch
Arsenal's regularly scheduled fake injury and pep talk, of course.Was that a heat stoppage in the rain or something?
Wish we had this level of fight, it really is impressive
Just seen the goals, but how was Arsenal's corner not ruled out? Martenelli wasn't even looking at the ball and blocking Ederson, am I missing something?
A polished adama Traore
He seems like a slightly better version of Adama Traore.
It is impressive but they also get away with a lot…like this “dirty” tricks of getting timeouts (keeper goes down) in a game without timeouts
Bit of a one trick pony. Also missed a glorious run into the box as he was doing his trick.
Don't waste wishes on this level of tumescent antics however awful we are actually playing.
A natty Adama Traore
Arsenal have had a few chance to pass but they are intent of defending only and clearing the balls out. It’s going to come back to haunt them
Pep making the perfect sub
He's both a real threat and an absolutely terrible limited player at the same time.
They do this every match and it never gets called, not sure why
As much i don’t like City and Pep, I just can’t stand Pep lite.
Timber would have been so good for us
Pep should have taken a defender off at HT for Foden. They're the ones taking the shots at the edge of the box
Arsenal’s fitness levels are clearly a level above us. If we tried to defend like this, the players would just tire fairly quickly.
So a slightly better Theo Walcott then... while in a much better team that makes the threat part look more threatening?
What a poor touch, should have killed the agme
Walker is trash.
City still struggling to create anything.
One problem for City is that Walker finds himself touching the ball way too much on the edge of the box and we all know he's really useless on it
It's odd, it's not even subtle
At the moment, Arsenal is the only team in Europe I would back to defend a one goal lead with ten men.
Teams need to start appealing for it more, it’s why they score so many set pieces
Sky commentator desperate for a big city goal, every half chance is met with such enthusiasm “DIASSSS”. Pathetic.
Feel like I'm watching Test Cricket
I'd rather watch Traore.
Arteta has picked these shithouse gamesmanship tactics up from Pep.
Calafiori has a bad injury record doesn’t he?
If the trophy is on the line they would bottle.
Nope, White used to hold the keeper, etc. Now Martinelli comes in from behind and turns his back while another player blocks the other side so the keeper can’t move
