Neville now Murphy saying should putting tackles in! Don’t these thick fuckers think when a player goes to close us down or a tackles we pass the ball or do they want all the players to go all in on mass?!

Would be interesting to compare his touch/passing stats to some of the rag players and see how many of them can be classed as spectators.....on second thoughts dont bother, they were all spectators yesterday.

I did bother - and you're right :)

According to whoscored stats, Ederson made more passes, was in possession longer, and had a better pass completion than ANY United starter yesterday! The only one who beats any of his stats is Lingard who completed BOTH his passes - but then he only played for a third of the match!
 
Delaney, Panja and the rest of the foolish journos are really squirming and trying to use the derby win into "evil" UAE help Russians etc.

Have a feeling they did not enjoy the game yesterday. :))))))))

Caller after caller yesterday saying “x player isn’t a Manchester United player” and “come on, this is Manchester Utd we’re talking about”…. And?

You’re a football club, competing with 19 other clubs in the division and 92 in the football league in total. You don’t deserve anything unless you work hard and work smart to get it. United as a club aren’t entitled to the best players and best managers and trophies because you won stuff under one man for 20 years in the past.

City aren’t entitled to win stuff when Pep leaves, not unless we are incredibly clever and replace him with the right personnel.

United are no more entitled to win stuff than Newcastle or Burnley, that’s the beauty of competitive sport. you’re quite correct in saying their arrogance is part of their downfall. They sign a player on huge wages that City have vaguely been interested in and presume they’re going to score 30 goals a season or get them 15 clean sheets. It’s madness but long may it fucking continue.

I hear off rags less and less these days, they’re quietly depressed.

Neville said on sky commentary that's ' it's that time in the game for a two footed tackle lunge from united

While that was a ridiculous thing to say, every one of us has urged a City player to "get stuck in" or similar when the team needs a boost, a really crunching tackle to fire things up.

They just couldn't get close enough to try it.

True but there is a huge difference between us fans shouting that, be it at the stadium, the pub, at home. A commentator saying on nation tv possible in many other countries. Shouldnt in my eyes be wanting one player to possible seriously injury another player.
Two footed tackles are banned for a reason

We saw one of those from Fake Ron the first time he played for the Rags 'n Steve Bennett showed him a red card, at which point Stevie B was surrounded by almost the entire Rag team. He must long for those days when the Rags had a bit of grit!

And they seem to have forgotten that the Rags were flown around the place by some airline from, er, where was it now? Aeroflot! Where are they based?
 
As we know, we are not state owned. If we were, and were being held to task about abstaining a UN Security Council resolution, it might be interesting to know that, just two days later, they voted in favour of a UN General Council vote to condemn the war and demand Russia end it. Here

Did Tariq or Miggles mention the score in their match reports or was it all just the geo-political implications of Maguire's defending?

Kev might beg to differ. They cleaned him out twice!
