Hands down the best team in the Premier League. Haaland looks incredible already.

it's driving me mad but he remind me of someone (and no not his dad). Maybe it's a larger version of tore andre flo...

City's players are technically so good, but the effort they all put in to win the ball back or make runs off the ball to keep possession. Night & day difference with our arrogant lot who lack any effort.

Watching City play compared to us is night and day, we’re miles off of them. ETH has an absolutely massive job to get us anywhere near their level. A job that’s made 10x harder by the fact he’s handicapped by our parasitic owners and incompetent board.

we are as far off them as they were from us in the season they were relegated (was it 20 years ago?)

1st GW and I am already rooting for City, what an absolute mare Premier League has become for Utd fans.

Not getting all the praise for Haaland’s performance at all. Looks clumsy out there. Watching pundits analyse his incredible run that led to the penalty. Seemed a straight forward 10 yard sprint followed by a clumsy challenge from a keeper to me. Personally I think City look a lot more predictable with him in the team, and technically he’s not at the level of his team mates.

He’ll score goals and City will blitz the PL, that’s what a brilliant manager and a couple of billion in players will do for you, but they don’t look a better team with him in it. No doubt it’ll improve with time.

“There’s an air of majesty about Declan Rice” as he completes a five yard pass.

Still find it hard to work out how people don't rate Declan Rice.
He's quality. I used to be indifferent towards him but he is very very good and rarely gets into trouble physically or technically. He would be perfect for us in games like today where we had no discipline in midfield.

I wouldnt be against us breaking the bank to sign him. Offer west ham Fred, Scott and Rashford and 50million.

At least we beat them to Ronaldo last summer so that they needed a striker this one instead.
