Unfair that.

They were trying to blame it all on Wan Bissaka.

Micah was saying why is Fernandes getting a free pass? He did less than the other player but doesnt seem to get criticised.

He got hammered for the 1st goal.

I really didn’t understand Micah’s point.

He’s a lovely guy and a good personality but they picked the wrong ex City full back for the Sky gig, should have been Nedum.

(Or both).

Mondays MEN
City fans may be over the blue moon with Saturday’s scrappy Derby win but stats prove the REDS are still top dogs. In the last decade United have racked up 197 wins in League and cup games at the theatre of dreams compared to City’s paltry 11. Proving that while City are improving they still have a long way to go to rival the all conquering Redz.

Who’s he? Norman Whiteside’s disturbed incestral lovechild?
 
Despite their huge, multi-billion pound squad, oil-funded Manchester City struggled to a narrow win over a gallant Manchester United side owned by the Salvation Army and with a team made up of amateurs and free transfers. United's loyal supporters in Peckham and Ealing celebrated their team's brave showing long into the night.

Just watching the replay of the game on sky, Silva scores and you could hear a pin drop at the swamp. Sky had obviously switched off the microphones at the City end. Absolute twats, so happy that their cash cow is dieing.

It reminded me of that Liverpool game in the 2014 season when they went over the top at their games and to say our goals got a muted response is putting it mildly.

I'm in a minority here but I find him irritating. He doesn't ever say anything original or interesting, just the usual well worn football cliches. Earlier this week he was on about Ushited's decline being sad as they were good when he was a kid. He even came out with the "this is Man United" shite after the game. Not sure who he really supports but I don't think he is particularly bothered about us.

Oliver Holt had to shoehorn City secure '1st win against United in 5 attempts' into the headline.

He couldn't just leave it at slick City win against (top 10) rivals United.

Agree with some of that, he’s a personality rather than a pundit.

Ready for some abuse here but Carragher is a proper pundit, even though he’s a scouse ****.

Micah is the man you have on for entertainment, not to help you understand the game.

However, he definitely does care about us, a lot as well. Seen him defend City numerous times.

the “it’s Man Utd” bollocks is just him trying to come across as impartial.

I think it was more the fact that everyone was a bit puzzled what was happening as it seemed to happen in slow motion.
If you see the goal again there's a couple of seconds pause then the realisation it's gone in, even watching it on TV it took me a bit to realise it had gone in.
And I'm not in any way sticking up for sky here, I can't stand them one bit either.

Watched the game on sky with my lad. At first we both thought the ball had skimmed the side netting and gone behind. My lad realised a couple of seconds later it was a goal and started cheering. Stupid old me was still not sure where the ball was...
 
MOTD as expected not a word about the penalty incident. Wrapped under the carpet as the VAR did as Oliver did.

And it would be decent to highlight 2 or 3 moments from the 2nd half where we bossed them around. As it would reflect how the game was. At highlights should do.
