0-0 is ok but in the context of being knocked out of the CL it is kind of crap.

And we didn't even go for the win in the second. A team with no ambition for sure. Playing with fear of losing is frustrating.

1 win in 6 home games is it?

Technically we are inferior but I was happy to see our side put in an honest shift and seemed to care, especially Pogba.

Zero fecking ambition. Was more than happy with a draw at home.

4 games at home against rivals, 1 goal scored.

He talks a good game about United need to attack, should run more than any other team etc. He's all talk.

Shocking performance, he made no attempt to change it.

I've had enough of him.

Borefest of the highest order. Either our players are tired or Ole wanted to keep his job so badly he just didn't want to lose

Defence played well, also mctominay, everyone else rubbish. Shame Rashford had one of his 2 out of 10 performances.

A tiny bit above 'meh.' City weren't at it, and we did not fancy losing after midweek. Back 7 were all very good, front 4 not so much.

Terrible game. They had the 2 better chances but they didn't really go for it either. Deserved 0-0, one of the worst games I've seen in a while.

Home form has to improve dramatically. As do our results in big games this season. 4 games at home, 2 0-0 draws, 2 defeats. 1 goal in those 4, 7 conceded.

Happy enough with the draw. If you were a fan saying we would lose etc and complain about this then give your head a wobble.
Also Peps heart isnt in this anymore. This is his City side this season, this isnt a 1 off. They are as dull as dishwater

If city were more clinical, they would have won. We barely created nothing. Either way, the game was as boring as the Chelsea game. I doubt that city will look for a draw when we meet them at their home.

Repeat of the Chelsea game. Absolute bore fest with two sides who don't give a shit about trying to win.

Neither side will finish in the top four this season, pin it.

And from United perspective we're clearly going backwards. Much, much worse performances against all the big sides compared with last season.

Finally kept a clean sheet. Wasn't the most entertaining game but even if Spurs and Liverpool win, we'll only be seven points off top with a game in hand and just under 75% of the season left to play. I'm fine with that. There was no need to go gung-ho today. I just wish we'd have been this defensively sound in Germany a few days ago...

Both teams were happy with a point and were too scared to try a win it, don’t know what was worse the match or Sterling’s hair

Our results at home against the "top 6" this season:

United 1-6 Spurs
United 0-1 Arsenal
United 0-0 Chelsea
United 0-0 City

It really isn't good enough.
Abysmal, I'd say.

City were there for the taking, once again the fear of taking the next step strikes again.

Ole is mediocre at best... but I never thought Pep would play for a draw against a disjointed United. Fraudiola indeed.

Booorrrring. United are so much better than their league position. You can see the flashes of brilliance, but it's just so fecking inconsistent.

Also, why dont refs book divers. Sterling does it every match.

Atrocious game of football. Disappointed in us. We set up like a relegation threatened side side and our only real attacking threat was from corners which we are awful at.

Horrible. Completely dull.

Van Gaal would be proud.

Don't give a feck about City.

But when are we planning to actually go out and win games. It doesn't seem like we do at all anymore unless we're in the shit.

No problem. Draw all over it.

Little bit irritated about passing in our backline. We put ourself in some wierd position sometimes.

Two happy team, I would guess.
