I’m not watching, but my app says Sheffield have an XG of 0,00. That’s impressive in a way :lol:

United minus the Glazers
Pity we aren’t more clinical and have midfield issues amongst other problems. This seasons title is definitely for the taking

That Sheffield defender had grealish where he wanted him, then just let’s him cross the ball?

Crowd at Etihad will be halved next week with one of their fans getting arrested.

You can't shoot, let alone score without having the ball.

There's more of a chance of City winning 38 league games than us being anywhere near them

Watch Doku come on and immediately look like the finished article under Pep. You just know it's not gonna be a Sancho or Antony thing where the player needs time. Pep will have Doku looking like his flying lap from the first minute.
Quite a few of the wide players he's bought have taken time though?

The level of control and suffocation City have is just….I honestly cant imagine playing against this as a weaker team.

Feck football. We need to do everthing we can to make the Glazers poor or United will NEVER win ANYTHING. That's their only kryptonite. Not one cent.

You can talk about tactics and coaching all you want but Man city’s players are just on a different level individually.
How many times do they do daft things in the ball, I barely see any of these cheap flicks, shots from 40 yards blazed over that have no chance of hitting the net etc? Simple football, heads up and make a decision.
Another reason they control games is the number of duels they win. Almost every 50-50 ends up with them.
It’s depressing how we can’t seem to get hold of the basics and these feckers do it effortlessly. I’m at a loss.

Look at how City control possession 1-0 up versus how ww struggle to keep our 3-2 lead. City will continue to dominate for years to come. I doubt anyone can touch them in the next 3-5 years.

Did we struggle? Forest had one chance that was barely a half chance
