    It's going to be interesting ? has everyone done their SKY 6 A-Side teams ? just a reminder..
    I had Mata in my team for this match,but he's not starting ,so i stuck in Fellaini,a gamble because he gets booked a lot but he can score from set-pieces.

    My prediction United 2 - 1 City

    1-0 City !!!...problem is i had money (only a pound on each) on either Ibrahimovic or Sterling scoring the first goal - at 5-1 and 14-1 odds...bugger

    You couldnt pay me to be a Man Utd player in that dressing room with Mourinho at half time,he will go ballistic.....if you are 0-2 and playing ok then so be it,but yep,they are really bad...im very surprised...but hats off to City...Pep's tactics are spot on,and his players attitude as well.

    United response and passing is slow just not got going at all, Rashford has to come on United need to start asking city questions.

    This game is going give me a heart attack, United not finished yet. Agreed Ibra needs to sit on Bravo when he can.

    Wow great game United lost it in first half Jose got his tactics wrong, good fight back in second half from United. United should have equalised, City were the best team today onto next game...

    Someone needs to shut down this pathetic cry baby of a coach! Yet again he blames the referee for a defeat where his team was outplayed, yet again he criticises correct decisions. And those who claim there was a penalty need new glasses. It is a completely fair challenge on the ball.

    And those who question Claudio Bravo's abilities will soon have to eat their words. He is world class and has been so for years.

    TBH though @jobo ,Bravo did take out Rooney,with both feet off the ground,a definate penalty...but i'm a Gooner,and we are shit all the time ...

    Anyone know what all the fighting was about at West Ham? I mean the West Ham fans were fighting amongst themselves.

    I wouldn't bother, mate. He's not even a football fan. Beckham shagged his wife back in the day and he can't let it go.

    No. TBH I disagree completely. They both go in for the challenge. Bravo gets the ball. It is not a penalty. Neither is the handball ball which according to "Mr Special" they were robbed of as well. But he has demonstrated several times through his career that he never watches replays before commenting on referee decisions...

    @RC7 I understand it has been a frustrating day for you, but if the fact that I point out that Mou has nothing to complain about (as usual) offends you so much that you have to resort to juvenile insults (as usual), its your problem only <:-P
