Wish Pogba played. If he did we would have won imo.
If both teams continue to average the same until the end of the season they'll have a GD of around +100 greater than usMan united goal difference -1
Man City goal difference +31
We massively rode our luck against Juventus, and City didn't need to get into top gear today.Somehow I am really surprised by the results we get.
Winning away against Juve and losing 1:3 at the Ethihad (something that can happen to any team) would suggest we are not too far off the elite.
However, watching us getting dominated without any chances created from open play speaks a completely different language.
Not sure if it’s just Mourinho or the (missing) quality of our players as we have been playing that badly for 5 years now.
What did Smalling do wrong? He defended everything that came his way and none of the goals were his fault.Shaw, Lingard, Young, Herrera, Matic, De Gea, Smalling. All P**s poor today. You dont win games and claw your way back into the top 4 with 6 players playing so bad
Yeah unfortunately it is they have scored 36 and conceded 5. Only positive from the game is that we scored a goal against them. Sad to see that is the only positive from the team today and it’s all down to the managers tactics. Dull football from a dull manager. Didn’t learn from last season that when you have a go at this city team you have a better chance of winning. Sit back and it means our defence has to concentrate for a full 90 minutes, and as we all seen, we have been punished. Juve exposed the defence multiple times yet Mourinho doesn’t learn from this and persists with negative tactics.31? That can't be correct, surely?
As for this match, we need a change and its evident once again. Mourinho needs to go, he is simply unable to build the team we need to be. And I'd say that Woodward has to be removed form footballing matters as well.
Today isn't the day for any Jose out stuff.Yeah same, people are furious but the game was actually in the balance there for a period of the second half and had we equalized would people still be screaming José out? Still though not nearly good enough overall but that’s a different matter. As a one off game we could have got something from this we just lacked quality when it mattered. Don’t know what people were expecting from this to be honest
Exactly! That's what pisses me off. Not losing, but the cowardly set up and lack of fecking heart! In front of Sirs Alex and Bobby as well. Bloody shameful.Embarrassing really. Fecking get stuck in, foul them, press them, whatever... But don't just let them pass it around with so much fecking ease.
44 passes? Embarrassing.
Was thinking the same. Reduce him ffs.Why did no one 2 foot Sterling at the end.
Last stat must be completion or something?Embarrassing really. Fecking get stuck in, foul them, press them, whatever... But don't just let them pass it around with so much fecking ease.

And we should be -3 by the end of the season, just hope it doesn’t go to goal difference for europa league placesIf both teams continue to average the same until the end of the season they'll have a GD of around +100 greater than us
Shaw was awful and hasn't been great since he signed his nice big contract, funny how that happens.Outplayed and outclassed.
From that starting lineup, only DDG, Shaw and Martial should start games for the club of our size
They had that many passes leading up to the last goal.Last stat must be completion or something?
They were playing a different sport to us and what's worse is the feeling of being only one goal behind for the majority of the game yet having the feeling we're not competing or still in the game. I've never felt that before.Guardiola is on a different planet to Mourinho, that's the reality. Nobody is surprised to get completely outplayed by City. The scoreline flattered us if anything, and that says it all. This wont change until Mourinho is gone. Give us Kante, modric and De Bruyne as our midfield 3 and they would still outplay us and dominate us in midfield, and that's due to the managers.
