When you "win" the second half

Lol!

Not closing down Ake was fatal for Utd.
Ball down the left flank to KDB or Grelish in space or a raking ball to the right wing or a ball down the centre for KdB or Gundogan or Haaland to do a wall pass with another City player. Or a surging run into central midfield.
Take a bow Ake the archirect of our win today.

I personally think our two centre halves today are now first choice in big games.

Question (two, actually) for @Gary James....

1. Last City player to score a hat-trick against Trafford's finest in a competitive game? Did Franny get one, back in the Fred and Wilma Flintstone days?

2. Have we ever had 2 hat-tricks against them in the same competitive game (no testimonial or friendly nonsense)?

1. Franny got one in December 1970 in a 4-1 away win. (I was there so less of the Fred and Wilma!). The only other was Horace Barnes in October 1921 also in a 4-1 win at home.

2. Not to my knowledge.

You've got to be a footballer to get in a Pep team, and Ake and Akanji can both play some!

Never had you pegged as an FOC. You learn something every day.

Phil reached 50 goals today and he's got another 7 months before he turns 23.

Foden?

One each!

We’ve not had one against them in the league since 2008

Buzzer is going to extend his normal life span watching what is being served before him. And Skip will be the same.must be fantastic for them to watch is happening these days. I know skip pretty well because he lives in Sale.

Where abouts? I used to live there ..off Framining road.
