Sanchez looked disgusted going off.

Jose brought the wrong bus today

Should a player ever look happy to be substituted? I don't get it.

Directly involved in all 3 goals, still 9 mins of official time left. I think he thought he could get one himself

1 goal and 3 assists in his last 2 games. :eek:

Last year I had to listen to all the **** about how United can't beat top 6 sides. This year we have beaten City, Pool, Spurs, Arsenal, Chelsea. I was told that we never come back from being behind and had only done it once in X amount of games. If today teaches us anything, it's to not take those anomalous stats seriously and watch the progress. We were ****e first half. We improved second half immeasurably, which has been a staple of our start to 2018.

A 96th minute equalizer from Pogba would be superb.

I know we want to win but I would love if they were celebrating the league title and we snatched it in the last minute! Leave them totally flat for the pool game!

OMG the gloating going on in the pub, you want to see the place after the second half :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

So buzzing

Seems most people think Young on Agüero was a definite penalty and red?
Looked a really unfortunate bounce off the ball up onto Agüero’s leg. He didn’t go in really high or anything.

Ah it was a reckless challenge, who cares though, City put in plenty of dirty challenges

City displayed all the hallmarks of a guardiola team there toward the end didn't they, how many of them were booked in the end?

Feel he got the ball point blank against aguero and it popped out the off aguero, but still a wreck less race that took a lot of the man so if it was given as a penalty I'd have felt it the right decision..

Yeah but it looked a complete accident to me. His foot bounced up off the ball onto hiis leg.

Yeah I can see how it could easily have been given but I would think him unlucky.
He didn’t go in high at all and got there easily before him.

Going by that, Aguero looks high

Kinda looked high after he won the ball tbh. Need to see it again though.

Great tackle from Young

Abnormally high levels of testosterone would make anyone angry tbd to them

That match thread though. We may very well win nothing this season but the change of tune over two hours was class.

I know we will go out and stroll around against West Brom next weekend

Derby days are always worth it, what ever the position of the table may be. Doing it on their patch after our first half display is even sweeter.

So since we've now gained some points on City, does that mean they might not be able to win it next week granted we defeat West Brom or does a win against Spurs for them still clinch it.

It's inevitable I know but the longer we poop their party the better haha :P

Thought jose's interview after the match was brilliant, humble to city after a derby match and never let the questions focus on one player, but answered the questions shreeves didnt ask like our cb duo fratalities in the first half.
Think shreeves is horrible at those post match interviews. Nothing insightful, doesn't ask the right questions and sounds like someone who just watches highlights of a game when interviewing

A result and (second half) performance to be proud of today. Worrying how poor we looked in the first half after a positive enough start, but the players showed real fight and character to recover. Hopefully we'll see that more often and hopefully it's a sign of things to come for next season. We have the players to hurt any side we come up against when we have the right attitude and gameplan.

To be fair to shreeves he probably has the hardest job of all tv. Imagine having to do them interview as and ask same stupid questions over and over again and he probably hates most of the people.

Paraphrasing...
“Chris it must be satisfying to make up for the mistakes you made here before, including the one in the first half where you let Kompany go”

Such a dickish way of interviewing.

I know it makes sense to want Spurs to drop points v City so we can secure 2nd more easily, but I would love Spurs to get something from the match. A few more dropped points would take a bit of the gloss off City and perhaps take the edge off the (at times) hyperbole. Sometimes they have been fantastic this season but I don't think you can talk about them being one of the greatest ever teams yet like many have.

Would love us to finish out the season with 6 wins - all matches are very possible to get max points from, and if we managed it it would be a decent points total.

Where is Bangkok?

Come on lad, come out and tell me how good city are please
