Ole beating Mourinho and Guardiola in the space of a week, who'd have thought?

It's kinda weird to see all of the player ratings in green (well, the starting 11) :D

We need some proper control with the ball,though.
Feel like I've been saying that for sometime/

Got to give it to Ole here. Completely neutralised City. Fantastic!!

So far so good. Now purchase, so we don't have to bring in Pereira or Young (nothing against him he actually did his job).

Fantastic first half an hour when it could/should have been 4 nil.
Dug in after that and still could have scored again.
What a freakin' turnaround from Sheff U and Villa.......buzzin tonight

Annoyed that I’ve seen us concede off another corner. We are clearly a very good attacking team, the improvement from last year in that regard (if we have players fit) is phenomenal.

I’m a bit of a perfectionist so maybe being harsh. It’s just this team (albeit young and dripping points) are exceptional.
I saw the Jose defenders claiming we are just as bad offensively as we were last season. It’s night and day for me

Excellent tactical masterclass by Ole. Great defensive discipline by the lads throughout City’s onslaught which lasted about 60 minutes.

I don’t care what people say about AWB’s ineffectiveness going forward, he’s a defensive beast and that’s his primary and most important job.

Get in! Have we turned a corner? Let’s kick on from here into the festive season.

I am so tempted to make fun of the "incompetent Ole" comments - but it feels rather unnecessary. I Think he has proven once and for all that he is a rather smart manager.

Brilliant performance from the lads.

Fan-fecking-tastic get in.

I think City should be deducted points for their fans behaviour. Absolutely shocking.

What a game! We have Pogba to comeback. Hope this is not a false dawn and we finally start to move up.

Fantastic 4 days. Noone (even me) thought we would get 6 points out of these 2 games. If we can just get one player in, a better player than Lingard/Periera for the AM/No10 role in January, we could still make top4.

Agreed with this.
But today isn’t the day for this!
What! A! Win!
Everyone put in an amazing effort.

Damn what a game!!
First half performance was exceptional, second half was a case of hanging on.
De Gea at fault for the goal but kept us in it with a great save.
We look electric going forward.

Did not see this coming at all..!! Well done Ole. However I still think we need Poch and move Ole up to the DoF position!
Anyway, just enjoy the win now!!

Fantastic result but we made it much harder than it should've been.

Brilliant performance... Well done to the lads.

We need to back this up now with a good performance in the next two games and hopefully go on a decent run

We got them well prepared and oiled for Dinamo clash. :D

That was fantastic. That was Manchester United.

5 points of top 4.

Scenes at the end. Players still clearly playing and turning up for Ole. Absolutely loved it!!
Was thinking this during the match. No doubt the players are behind Ole. Let’s hope the owners get behind him with some support for new players to strengthen a few positions.

Fantastic performance! Predicted a draw but I'm not disapointed.
A little bittersweet to give the scousers the title, but it was always inevitable :rolleyes:

Well done to all the staff and players.

So nervy at the end but the lads dug in.

Sir Alex happy!:drool:

Fred and Wan Bissaka were great.

Very thankful for the win.

We just need to be consistent!

Great performance. Jittery at the end but understandable.

It’s a shame that denying City the title means nothing (positive).

Just seen those City fans cheering when Fred had projectiles thrown at him from the crowd.

What utter scum.

I wish we could play teams dominating the ball every week. We are unplayable against these teams.

I have no throat left, I might have caused some injury to myself actually from all the shouting! Unbelievable win, the first 30 minutes is the best I've ever seen us play, it could have been 4-0 easily!

@Wumminator I can't wait for the threads you are about to create, mate.
