Gordon had a better season than Kane, Rice, Saka etc?!

Hmm top 3 with Gordon and Saka, wingers that is!

 

[manic111]

Don't worry lads, Forson and Amrabat on.

I think the latter was going to come in and be one of the best midfielders in the league? Should be fine, then ...

 

[Tombstone]

I would say good effort but they went into defence mode too early really, was always going to be doubtful that they would hold out for that length of time

Ah wingers. Got you

 

[the wopster]

Foden currently best england player next to Gordon

Problem is Safegate will still pick Rashford and sterling over them

Tbf they had no choice. Utd can't live with City and trying to play vs them would have resulted in a far quicker turn around. Their only chance was hoping that City just find a way not to score.

Love that Rashford has scored one of the goals of his life and still been shown up by Foden

Well, I'm somewhat impressed our shoddy defence has held out against City this long. Could have been a lot worse.

Would have been worse if City had bought Nunez rather than that big blonde joker

Southgate fuming that Foden is having another blinder

To be fair, Rashford showed himself up after his goal. Had a couple of chances and also gifted City their first.

and play Foden at left back

Said as the TV pans to an unhappy Southgate

Garnacho picking his nose and eating it. A man of culture.

What’s with Foden’s PF-47 celebration?

He came to watch Rashford and Mainoo. Doesn’t know who Foden is, does he?

Has he ever playing under Joachim lowe ?

Came to watch Maguire and in his head he’s been MotM.

 

[Ayahuasca]

@bingham67 no McTominaldo post today?

 

[Tombstone]

Well, looks like we'll just have to do the job ourselves next weekend then

 

[Calpol]

It's fair to say that United are weakened in defence but ten Hag really shows no sign of closing the chasm between these two teams. I still think we are three seasons away from being closer to a title challenging team if City are the standard. The contrast between De Bruyne and Fernandes is stark and so much of what United do goes through him. Oh well, we expected a shallacking but looks like we might at least avoid that. 2-1 does not really tell the story though.
