The blueprint has been there for a long time.

Don't let City dictate, press cohesively, get on the front foot and pressurise the back 4.

You just have to be brave enough to execute, and play well.

It also helps when Pogba shows why he should be a dominant, gamechanging player more often than he is.

City should've had a penalty, but meh. That 2nd half performance deserved for them to lose.

A penalty (singular)? Agree about the second half performance. We obviously thought the job was done.

City must be the worst ever greatest ever team...

To see easy to say meh. They should have had two pens and for some reason young could do what he want.

It's too easy as well just to blame the referee. You can't control what a ref is gonna do (and Atkinson is one of the worst) but the referees aren't going to get everything right and everyone should just realise that. Sterling should have scored, City shouldn't have collapsed. They're things City can control and they didn't. (the Aguero non penalty was a shocker though.)

Yeah, i just don't buy that at all. They have to prove themselves over a couple of seasons at least with silverware. Guardiola's team can get there, but not yet. You can't put them over the likes of the Invincibles of 2004, the 99 Man U side, Roy Hodgson's Liverpool to name but a few.

Not having the first pen tbh. Hand normal angle not intentional. They were stuffing us first half anyway. It's not making a difference.

Young tackle was a pen and a sending off. But **** it, United rinsed City in that second half and are now in a dominant position for 2nd. Delighted

Ya that's fair enough, city did hit the crossbar and the post and de gea made a great stop though, so utd did ride their luck a bit. On the first pen he was lying on the ground and his hand stopped a definite goal so it has to be a pen for me.

Kyle Walker tweeted the same thing after the game. It seems that every week, the talk is about the latest howler from him, or him, or him. They are very poor.

That wasn't actually the City Player Kyle Walker you know?

City will still win the league with ease. Today was a cup final for Utd, but not City.

Amusing to see their defense **** the bed again though :pac:

Fair shouts. I can see the arguments for the first pen either way. We defo rode our luck and were poison first half. But there is a resilience on that United side that is great to see. Loads of fight and it's the first time since Fergie that I've felt that level of excitement and expectation from a United side.

In fairness I was reading the utd thread during the first half and the abuse in there was worse than on here, so your own fans were just as bad.

I didn't actually see the tweet, I saw it mentioned by A.N.Other on Twitter (no link though, and I couldn't find it). Serves me right for taking something at face value, particularly on there.

You see the way Man U played the way they did in the second half because they had to, you see the same away at Crystal Palace a few weeks back. If Mourinho allowed his team to place like this as a norm and not as a reaction to going behind, Man U would be playing Bayern Munich next week.

I've no idea why he plays the way he does as manager of that club with the players they can attract. The loss to Seville was needless. If they had tried to win that tie, they would have.

Yea it was just some random guy called Kyle Walker not the City player.

I think I saw the same tweet your talking about though.

That they will, which makes it even stranger to see City fans in tears after the game. Jesus, some of them looked old enough to remember the previous Man City. Now they're crying because they lost a Derby that just delays their title win? Perspective, lads.

Martin Atkinson really is horribly shíte.

City on the wrong end of most of it, but honestly, it's just a roulette wheel of shít with him. It just depends on the day whether your team gets lucky or not.

Calm down.

I've already said Utd were brilliant in the 2nd half, and it was deserved.

I'm also allowed to say a ref is shíte. Utd can deserve it AND be on the right end of Atkinson's shìteness. Relax.

We had a shocking first half but after half time we were a different team.
Otamendi has cost ye twice in two games, wheres the 50mil john stones gone, is he injured? Over 200mil spent of defence and the weaknesses are still there.

Paul pogba was immense second half and Herrera got seriously under some of the City players skin, loves it. Jesus and Sane lost their cool.

De Gea pulled off an unvelieveable save.
Sterling was seriously wasteful and probably played himself out of the team for tuesday as with Otamendi.
Brilliant to see McTominey come on for such a big derby, for a coach who apprantly doesnt play youngsters from the youth system but he's put that to bed, no empty chair in the sub bench.

I call it a big derby as i guarantee all city supporters would have loved to 'win' the title against united and united fans would want tge complete opposite.

Tuesday nights pressure just got bigger for ye mentally
