United (H) Post Match Thread

Maybe he just likes seeing United get stuffed then.

Who doesn't

And to think, nobody brought up the fact we played Liverpool either side of them in the Champions League last season.

Loved Walker's aggression. He tread a fine line at times but was always eyes for the ball.

Has been off boil this season but that's the intensity we need from him. Perhaps he is one of the lads still playing catch-up after the World Cup.

Stones and Laporte are like a couple of Rolls Royce's. They sit on the driveway, you take them out once a week and let them remind you why you pay for class.

I thought Walker had a cracking game yesterday. He had an opponent who offered a threat and it brought the best out of Walker defensively.

One of the best derby days I have experienced. City were magnificent and I cant wait to watch it again without the angst.

Ederson - 6
Walker - 9
Laporte - 9
Stones - 9
Mendy - 8
Ferni - 9
Silva B - 10
Silva D - 10
Sterling - 9
Aguero - 9
Mahrez - 8
Sane - 8

Pep - 10

It's all bollocks isnt it!

Pep inherited a team of ready made players
There again...
Pep has spent money on buying the team he wants.

Emotion -v- Logic/Reality = Bullshit

Leave them to it, the longer they keep tying themselves in knots looking at how City have gone about their business the longer it will keep them going round in circles and being total denial about their football team which turns over more money than anyone else in world football but finds itself sat in 8th 12 points behind a team that was in division 2 20 years ago.

They had an advantage long before Guardiola and Mansour rocked up, they got complacent and thought no one would challenge them. Leave them to it.

The highlights on the OS are useless. Our third - one of the great goals of any derby anywhere, at the very least, coming at the end of a sequence of 44 passes - is reduced to 3 passes. It's as useless as the season review where we get the commentator enthusing that "that was a truly great team goal, but all we see of it is the ball rolling into the net.

Anyone know if you can watch the full match anywhere preferably sky coverage but any other will do. Normally I record the game and watch bits day after etc but forgot to do it for Sunday. Any sites or does sky have a catch up where I can watch the game? Cheers

It’s on sky football at 1pm shortly

Someone could make a fantastic piece of art chronicling all those passes on a canvas.

Have to say the atmosphere yest was mint, but still seeing people leaving early just don’t get it . Only get to play them a couple of times a season and the leave early when we are winning !! Fuck the traffic leaving 10 mins early dosent achieve anything anyway , we had a 125 mile trip but stayed as long as we could . The atmosphere at the end was priceless with the music blaring and the Blue moons on the screens .

I suspect it was more Guardiola being concerned a United player would clean him out and injure him than feeling it was in some way disrespectful.

Possibly. I wasn't really talking about what Pep said more the general attitude towards it and Mata shouting at him at the time. I have just never got why it annoys anyone. No different from nutmegging a player etc, if you have the skills to take the piss use them. The thing that confuses me does relate to what you say though. If Raheem does that and some big dirty **** like Fellaini goes in on him and injures him as retribution, I am confident you would have had plenty of pundits saying Raheem deserved it and that Fellaini was in some way entitled to do it because showboating is so out of order. I honestly just don't understand it and never have. But then it doesn't surprise me, after all we are talking about a sport where some people view spitting at someone as worse than stamping on them.
