Worst Utd performance I have seen, didn't get a sniff at goal, could have played all night and not scored, cannot believe they have thrown away an 8 point lead like this, City deserve to win the league, but an away game at Newcastle is not an easy game.

Not at all surprised at that result. I'm disappointed by the manner of the defeat though, we were sloppy in possession, crossed the ball poorly, and I can't remember Hart having to make a proper save. Now we just have to hope that City drop points against Newcastle. It's game over if they're still ahead after that match.

Looks all down to the Newcastle/City game then, can't see QPR getting anything in the final game at the Etihad even if they are fighting for survival.
Wasn't surprised to see 5 minutes of stoppage time. Should I say Fergie time?
What a joke... there were pretty much seldom stoppages and only 1 injury and that was Hart's minor one after the 5 minutes were put up. More evidence that officials favour United!
Anyway, this is a great result for the title race. The spark would have died immediately after the match should United have scored.

I know, it was a disgrace.
Good result for the neutral, keeps things alive a bit longer 
City still have a tough run-in though - still though if they end up on top (with a win against QPR on the last game of the season) they'll finish with 17 wins and 1 draw from 18 home games which is a pretty impressive record.
Tbf though you'd have to prefer Swansea and Sunderland, both teams with absolutely nothing to play for, than Newcastle and QPR with everything to play for respectively - as such I think Utd still have to be slim favourites.
Basically Yaya Toure > Utd midfield, whoever it is they scrape together on any given week
