No offence, but he really, really doesn't.

The Derby isn't our cup final anymore. It's theirs.

Still not nice going to work tomorrow with them fuckers singing in our ears . I know I it’s there final but anyone apart from them plz

Very concerning for the CL.

Our mentality when we go behind is very questionable and our qualities aren’t really suited to chasing the game.

Take one example (and I can choose many): Rodri; he is the perfect player for us when we’re winning and want to slow the game down and keep the ball ticking over; but Rodri is the sort of player who is fucking hopeless for us when we’re chasing a game.

Hitting teams on the break: only Foden and Agüero have a counter attack in them. All the rest of our attackers want to slow down and turn inside to get some inane passing going like we’re 4-0 up, when we’re trying to chase a game.

We will have to score first in the CL to have any chance of winning. We will not come from behind to win it.

Our mentality going behind is awful as you said our style is not suited to when we fall behind.
Rodri was completely out on his feet come 80 minutes today because he's used to picking the ball up deep and playing the game at his pace when we are chasing it he's like a deer in headlights. Fernandinho gives us much more in games like today and he much more clever stopping counter attacks Rodri still has a long long way to go of learning the dark arts.
Foden caused Wan Bissaka more problems in 10 minutes than Sterling has in 3 years!
We need to improve dramatically in the Champions League.

Utd lost it from 8 ahead with only 5 games left....further complacency from City, like we saw today, should not be acceptable

This is my worry, today was not just a derby it was an opportunity to close out the league

Feel like i want to eat cake, lots of it.

 

[give it to gordon]

Of all the teams in the league why do utd have to be our bogey team ?

 

[WestGorton]

Shit show.
Could tell it was going to be "one of those games" 10 mins in.

I could after 30 seconds!

Even on an awful day, he made 8 key passes and had four shots.

He gave the ball away 5-6 times too. For him, that’s awful. He had a couple of brilliant crosses. Our expectations of him are very high, as they should be. As with West Brom, this can be a motivational match/result/performance.

KDB should not be starting in this side, he needs to earn his place, rather than just being a guaranteed starter

Politics at play ?

I recall Kevs interview when we went out of the CL.....quite edgy and maybe suggesting errors by pep in selection and tactics (iirc).

Good goal Luke.

Very similar to our win at OT in 2008. They were much the better team but we won on the day. Bragging rights for a Monday morning but they won the Premier league and the Champions league. Let's just have a few beers, get it out of our system and move on

We will be champions and they are no closer to us because they won the Derby
