Football really needs to introduce a minimum ball in play time.

City don’t look at all like their normal self , not very fluid , slow passing , Utd controlling them with ease at the moment

I'm happy with you saying that, my fear is that Homer may say the same.
That'd be the kiss of death!

It certainly looks like Rashford's done for the day.
Garnacho time?

Always a good day when the squirrel has not made an appearance ( yet).

Very impressed with Utd, look really organised. Where as City still look very sloppy. And that’s why I still have Arsenal down as title winners. I can see Grealish coming on for Foden.

I think a draw would make Newcastle and Arsenal very happy.

I think it speaks volumes that TH would sooner play Luke Shaw over Maguire as centre half.

I'd be happier with a City win. Newcastle are not in all seriousness competing for a top 2 place.

We are in the fight for 3rd-7th so any loss of points for the other teams in those places is a bonus.

There's something about KDB that just scares me, he's just so good.

It was coming - Utd were starting to sit too deep allowing City to get into a groove and giving space to KDB

Now we'll find out what United are made of.

The frustrating thing is, Utd have no one up front who can just take and keep the ball. Nothing sticks, so with City they just keep getting it back, and pushing and pushing and pushing. Martial was terrible in 1st half.

I'd bring Garnacho on, right now, for Rashford.

This is going to be interesting as Rashford is offside but Fernandes isn’t - should be a goal

Right decision by the rules, rule is an ass

Thank you.

Is it? I was surprise ...if rashford had stopped I would agree but ran with the ball. Potentially distracting a defender

How on earth is that not interfering

 

[nickjdavis]

How can Rashford not be classed as "shielding the ball" ????

 

[Slime]

Thank you.

You're welcome.
