I think one big thing here was that Utd played this 'low block' thing - two lines of defenders playing deep.
Teams do this to City and did for a lot of last season. It can be difficult to get through.
No-one much did it to Liverpool last season, but some are this season, as they've finally worked out that Mane/Salah and the fullbacks are neutralised a bit if there is no space. Like City, they don't have a tall target man to aim for.
