Their goal was a bit of a fluke. But City haven't played well. I don't think it's a very strong team we have playing, and United's tactics with 5 defenders have made it tough.

Up front - Wan Basanga is a great player, and has Sterling in his pocket. On the other side I'm not sure Foden is a winger. Shaw is a little tubby but quicker than he looks.

Defensively - this back 4 scares me. Fernandes is creative, but besides that United are weak up front luckily. Martial can find goals, but James doesn't scare me. Zinchenko is not a left back, Fern is not a center back.

In the midfield - City have held possession. But I think we have 1 shot? No creativity. Bernardo has gone missing, and Gundagon and Rodri are not as attacking minded.

Bring on Jesus at 60 min. Still think City win 2-1
 
It’s a shame really. We have such a good squad and we are literally pissing away a derby.
 
We have been diabolical , and yet the only time they have managed to score Ederson threw it in the net , hope Pep really lays into them at half time , we can still win this if we can show the same commitment as that load of workmanlike shite.
 
Back 5 is smothering everything we are doing. Wide players so wide that Sergio isolated. And, even when we get it wide, there is not penetration, either from midfielders making a run in behind, or from the wingers beating their man and getting in a cross across the 6 yard line.

Ponderous, predictable, playing with our back to goal upfront. They are all speed, direct, take em on, and putting us on our heels.
