First half was promising enough. The second... well I managed not to fall asleep which I'd rank as one of my better achievements this year. City's technical superiority in that second half was a bit depressing, if not unexpected.
What I don't really get is that in a half during which we struggled to get the ball to our attackers, our only sub was a striker for a striker. It felt a bit pointless: we couldn't get the ball to Greenwood and Rashford, why would it be any better with Martial and Rashford?
Bruno should have been brought off. I understand leaving him on, he's our best player, can always pull something out of the hat and he had a couple of efforts at the end - but he looked to be flagging badly and was uncharacteristically sloppy.
