Terrible from Lukaku or totally unlucky can look at it both ways.

Nah it's terrible. If you're clearing a ball 6 yards from your own goal, get some height on it.

Lukaku nearly scored an o.g last week defending at the back post and now this slice.

sligeach

More comical defending from United.

Bring on Zlatan

thats really not a neutral, a neutral would want a premier league race, not a stroll

certainly the game is better (and was) if City are in the lead. The league is likely already gone.

Very un Jose like goals to concede today.

No manager can legislate for individual errors.

He can't be any worse than Lukaku and he'll always make one chance out of nothing in a game.

Looks like no Aguero today!!!

Attacking wise, he's been given poor service. Difficult enough to do well when the ball is being hoofed up everytime, like watching Ireland play. Albeit, everytime he has got it, he's been poor enough

Defensively, he's assisted both of City goals

Rossi IRL

All the talk of City being a great passing team...... they have had to rely on 2 set piece goals.


Now the most defensive sub that can be made has been made by guardiola....... where is his criticism for going negative.

United gave been poor

Rekop dog

Silva false 9 now. Pep you hipster fu*k.

To Alcohol

City are a different class and more goals in this for them. Lukaku a liability.

City have cut open Utd in the first half from deep with some good passing.

Pep also took off a CB at HT for a CM to go for it and has now balanced the side again.

I dont think hes gone negative but reset the balance of the side.

Definitely individual errors in that city defense if united can get at them.

They'll still largely control the game and do most of the attacking, it's hardly a park the bus job.

Oliver..

This game is like a repeat of the Merseyside derby. Very similar pattern of play.

Same time on the goal too. Now watch United get a dodgy second-half peno.

Yeah, Bar the fact Everton were away from home and have not spent hundreds of millions building a team that sets up to defend at home,
Its a terrible Indictment of Mourhino

Brain dead comment of the thread goes to you sir.

Oliver is dreadful

niallo27

And they say Lukaku doesn't do it in the big games. 2 assists today.

Rossi IRL

I'd bring on Ibra soon

sligeach

Yellow card for Rashford seemed unfair. He just bounced the ball in frustration. He didn't kick it away or shout any obscenities.

AidoEirE

2-1 down, lukaku needs help up there, ibra surely to come on soon

Its a show of dissent, its a yellow all day.

PhlegmyMoses

Is Oliver jot booking Sterling there? What the actual ****

martyos121

Clever foul from Sterling there.

Rossi IRL

Oliver.........

GavRedKing

Thats another good save

No booking again
Pathetic from Oliver again
****ing disgrace

GreNoLi

No yellow?

Nothing clever about it obvious and cynical Oliver is just an infraction

irishman86

Its like watching Peps Barcelona where cards were mostly never given

AidoEirE

Oliver is a fkin joke

ctrl-alt-delete

Looks like Silva gets away without a yellow too.

*He gets it in the end

GavRedKing

Theres not many players that I cant stand more than Herrera.

Hes a wannabe hard man that goes down like hes shot once hes touched. Its embarrasing.

Skylinehead

Someone needs to tell the crowd what "advantage" is.

Oliver is the worst of the worst

Unearthly

Oliver having an absolute Clattenburg

Not meaning to stereotype but I watch a lot of Spanish football and there is a lot of that in every game.

I hate to see it, even more as a United fan

I mean, if this is about the Silva incident, he played that one perfectly. Let it go on, book him later. Crowd is stupid.

Are you actually being serious?

martyos121

Martin Tyler reckons a United win is still on.

Hilarious as usual, I see his bias hasn’t softened over the years anyway. A draw is the absolute best case scenario here and they’d really have to pull the finger out the even manage that.

No, hes done it three times today, Silvas tackle was hardly crucning, he went down screaming, didnt get the free and was up straight away.

He goes over and exaggerates tackles all the time.
