Incredible performance from them, the chance came and they did not choke, kept on grafting and churning out the points. It is one of the reasons I have such contempt for Spurs, it could be years before they get another chance to win a league title, such a soft press for them in a year when they have missed an incredible opportunity.

Even at Chelsea and Liverpool, managerial changes didn't do much to improve their league position. Something deeper.

We talk about Utd lacking strong personalities, but it is also true of our main rivals. Who are the leaders at City/Arsenal/Spurs/Chelsea, the strong core who hold these teams together?

Too much money in the game, teams looking to spend their way to a solution rather than adapt and improve more organically.

Fergie left old trafford after 25 years and didn't so much as have a wobbly lip.

Shows you the characters of the men

Yeah, now Terry is leaving Chelsea it's tough to see many proper leaders at any of the big clubs.

United need to build something intelligently. Don't have much faith.

Next season ruined already if we're in the group stage of the uefa cup.

Was class that, especially after missing 2 sitters just before. Fair play to em

Why are Chelsea & Leicester both playing in blue?

mike dean is still a @#%&! then.

Don't think I've ever seen anyone love being a ref as much as him, tbh. Seems to be getting more and more arrogant as time goes on, also.

Inept time keeping is a pet hate of mine. Yesterday adds on 3 mins, City make a long protracted sub. Blows on 92:59. Complete @#%&!.

That and obviously denying a clear penalty for Swansea for a foul he was looking at, obvs.

Loves a good push does Mike

£#%&!ing state of Swansea. Turned it off as soon ad Mike Dean (Wirral) chalked off Swansea's goal for nowt. His refereeing, in any game that has anything to do with us is appalling. Another last day where a team playing City decides to treat it as a testimonial and not try and win. £#%&!ing joke.

Like West Ham, if anything like this happened to Liverpool, it'd be in the High Court already.

But let's be honest, LVG and Ed absolutely ruined any chance we had of top 4 by not doing the decent thing in January. Anyone telling me Jose wouldn't have done better can £#%&! off.

Frustrating thing about the game was Swansea came out second half and looked bright. Felt like it was going to be a tough half for City. But after giving it a go for ten minutes they soon retreated and spent half an hour playing for a point.

United have no right to feel hard done by, but I can only imagine if they'd done that on the last day to Leicester's title rivals or something. The press would be up in arms. That @#%&! Guidolin is on my list. Batters West Ham away but cba to beat city. #@&%!.
