Man Utd Thread:

Smalling sending off the turning point of that game, his side might have drawn that game if he wasn't so foolish.

City were by far the better team even before the sending off and could have been 3 up and then should have had two stonewall penalties.
United only got back into when City started to sit back.

Its OK though as United have more likes on Facebook....

Good luck on Tuesday, mate and his son away over, thinks its going to be a great game lol

Not expecting anything from it but sure it's nice to be in it all the same.

That's good, at least you're an honest spud

Two good saves DeGea made however for his quality they were expected saves. The Manchester United defence was more makeshift than normal when City scored as Rojo also off injured. I doubt city chose to sit back against ten men however their form hasn't been good in recent games and were just happy to hang for the win at the end.

In fairness Manchester United can take some positives out of the last two games as many including myself thought Manchester City,Chelsea would have healthy wins.

Lowest points total after 10 games for 28 years, not sure what positives you can take from that

You are aware of Liverpool fans who they'll get a result?

Bollocks!

Depsite being 2nd best for a lot of the game we could've and should've grabbed a point. 2 decent performances in a week though so signs of improvement.

The Jon Jo Shelvey lookalike LL better get all of his hilarious quips in soon as I would place any amount of money that he chooses that we'll finish above them this season .

City could and should have had a couple of penalties.  But yeah, credit to United for not giving up late on.

Apparently Van Gaal's a genius and he's got the team playing well but it will take time to implement  his "philosophy" totally.  What this philospohy is i don't know because all i can see is a defence that looks totally disjointed,a midfield that passes over and back and then just hopes Di Maria does something magic or else somebody boots the ball up the field.

Van Gaal is lucky that he had a reputation before he came to Man Utd because if this was any other manager he would be getting slaughtered for such a poor start to the season after spending £150million. Moyes got far more abuse and he had relatively little money to spend in comparision, yet got similar results. Take away the new big shiny signings to give the fans some hope and the big name manager, and Man Utd have been very disappointing this season. There is a perfect opportunity to make the top 4 this season given the mediocrity outside of Chelsea and City and yet it seems that Utd without the distraction of European football are doing their best not to finish in the top 4.

Rogers has spent 215 mil since 2012, and they are doing their best to stick with Utd

They aren't far behind although they were coming from a much lower base than Man Utd. Man Utd have spent similar money to a team that were League champions whilst Liverpool were 6th or 7th. Man Utd have better players than Liverpool but are around the same position in the table and that is a poor reflection on the manager. The big glamour signings have worked in terms of appeaesing the fans but the results have not improved.

Moyes rightly got stick, he inherited the champions and turned them into the worst team we've had in over 25 years. LVG has completely changed personnel and the way we play. There are plenty of signs of improvement, a good performance last week and a strong finish with 10 men against City today. This time last year we were getting hammered by City, Liverpool & Chelsea.

Results & performances have improved against the better sides have improved. That is obvious.

What about the results and performances against the weaker sides??

Jesus wept! City were comfortable and only for the ref would have been out of sight. Chelsea again were comfortable last week only for a last ditch set piece. If Moyes were in charge of this he'd be gone without waiting until the end of the season!!

Looking forward to the LVG must go banners after Christmas. Your defence is terrible and now with Smalling and Rojo out for the foreseeable it's only getting worse. . . Arsenal look like a banker at this stage!

I'd fine that bollix Smalling a months wages for that first yellow card. Stupid fcuker!
