Fantastic!
Cred to Ole, got the plan spot on for this team. Beat Pep again. Spotted Williams struggling (obviously) and changed it. Ighalo is very useful, solid player.

Ighalo is appearing a Larsson like signing. Fantastic endeavour from Martial and James a proper stable of midfielders and rock solid defence. Er, great!

Best thing about today, we played like a proper team, everyone had each others backs. When one player messed up another was there to help out.

Good performance.

AWB was immense once again in a big match...par for the course at this point

Fred and Matic also had standout days handling City's midfield quite well.

Was pretty cool seeing Pep giving Williams a shot after the match, he put in a solid shift.

The Bruno and Martial partnership is going to lead us to CL football it's feeling like

Superb result. The resilience the lads showed under pressure. Every man did their job perfectly. Foundations are being built here. Great to get the icing on the cake at the end. That felt BIG.

Superb performance City dominated but done nothing as the shot stats show.

Fair play to ole 3 times he's outdone the bald one this season.

Get in!!!!!!!!!!!

It’s time for all United fans to admit that Ole is the match 1vs1 against Pep Guardiola and cut “amateur coach” bullshit. Those who still insist that Ole is not up for managing this United are letting themselves down.

For all City’s possession it could have easily been 4 or 5 nil with better decision making.

Ole has Pep's number, then he screwed up the paper it was written on and wiped his beautiful Norwegian arse with it.

They only had a couple of decent chances, and if we had Rashford on instead of James I'm sure we'd have scored another.

2-0 to the good guys and a league double over City.

The Rag conspiracy theorists will have a field day on Blue Moon whilst ignoring Dean's refereeing.

fecking brilliant performance and win. Everyone put in a great shift, completely shut them down from doing anything, threatening on the break, could easily have been more with better decision making on the break. Deserved 2-0 in the end. They created absolutely feck all and it's amazing watching Wan Bissaka shut down Sterling yet again :lol: Shaw also brilliant. Same with Maguire. Fred and Matic have become a brilliant pairing, but Bruno fernandes have really given us that world class talent we've been missing as a #10.

Absolutely Fantastic Win. For the First time since Sir Alex retired it truly feels like we're a team on the up. Ole is building a fantastic young squad full of determination, you heard it here first.

And we thought Martial couldn’t or wouldn’t put in the leg work to defend...

Great dogged play, spoilt their possession based play
