Didn't see that coming at half-time! City could and should have been 5-0 up before we scored. But we were OK for the first twenty minutes and for the second half, it was just that 25 minute spell in the first half where we got hammered. A great fight back, real character shown and another brilliant save by De Gea at the death. How many times have we come from behind to win 3-2 away to City?

That game epitomises the romance of Manchester United; I'm totally buzzing. The first half was one of the worst I've ever seen from a United team; it could easily have been four or five and was a mis-match.

Second half was the United magic: back from the dead; character, team spirit, skill and attacking football. I don't know what to say; I'm totally buzzing.

Title party ruined; City's first home defeat for seventeen months; Pep put right in his place, along those toothless simpletons who were dancing at half time.

Magic, magic, magic. This is the buzz of supporting United we used to feel so regularly. :cool::cool::cool:

I am not even angry or worry when we are 2-0 down and wanting to post here to ask someone who wanna bet with me that we will win 3-2. I should do that :angel::angel:

Nervous came when we are 2-2. Funny.

Glory Man United !!

Herrera was my second man of the match after Pogba. That chest pass to Pogba for the first goal was brilliant. Not to mention the number of times he irritated City players.
God, I would hate him if he played for the opposition :lol:

Well 2nd place looks really likely now. If we can show that character against Spurs in the cup we could still make this a decent season

Surely the game of the season. Relatively inconsequential overall but what a fecking match, great entertainment and a real fighting spirit about us.

Listen back to Neville’s depressed reaction to our goals, the guy is a bellend.

Then listen to him when Sterling hits the post.

Not great to go 2-0 down and be outplayed by a weakened side but it was worth it for the comeback.

Wouldn’t be surprised if City lose to Spurs as well after going out of the Champions League midweek.

An epic second half which ranks right up with there with some of the top back United comeback wins over the last 25 years.

They did it to us 5 years ago. They spoiled our party back then. It's our turn, now! What a second half performance that was! After a horrible first half, the character that we've shown is what Manchester United is all about!

No worries
YEEEEEEESSSS!!!!!

How the feck did we win that?! So, so happy right now, especially as I thought we were guaranteed to lose before the match started.

First half we were pathetic, but second half we showed incredible fight, much like we did against Palace. Pogba and Sanchez stepped up when we needed them to. Really happy for Smalling as well to win the match after his mistake acted as the catalyst for City to dominate the first half. A moment of redemption for him. Herrera was great as well.

feck off Pep!!

Kompany reckoned (with that smug grin on his puss) that some team will win the quadruple some day.
Well where’s your quadruple now? No?
Triple maybe? No ?
Always remember One UNITED

Taking the next corner instead of Jones!
The title's on!

The City bottlers will definitely lose to Spurs at Wembley
Then Swansea will chase them back over the border without a win
West Ham will man up and Chicherito will pound them
They might manage a draw against Huddersfield at home at the start of May
Relegation threatened Brighton will see them off …
before Southampton hold them to a draw at home

In the meantime we'll win everything because of Paul Pogba's hair!

First have was disgusting and embarrassing to be honest I nearly left the pub.

Second half though, unbelievable. I'll criticise the players when they deserve it but also praise when they deserve it.

Made my weekend after nearly ruining it.
