Manchester City v Manchester United - PL 03/03/24 3:30pm KO - Official Match Thread.

Like a third round fa cup tie between a plucky non league team who somehow managed to fluke a goal, but just couldn’t hold on our because of the gap in class. We’ve got everything we deserved. Embarrassing. Say for 80 odd minutes without a shot on goal.

hojlund and martinez.

Amrabats PR during the summer was world class. Thought we were getting Robbo 2.0.

Top four ffs. Let’s try top half.

It was done when we lost to Fulham. This team isn't capable of maintaining a run of wins.

Half a billion quid our squad cost, can’t string a handful of passes together or run for 90min.

Some truly woeful performances, not least the coaching or complete lack of it - just another load of toss on the pitch. Such little fight, less quality on the ball & aimless approach once we retreated into the worlds most expensive Sam Allerdyce tribute act

Isn’t capable of completing a run the full length of a football pitch with the ball.

We won the first half and they won the second. Honours even.

Thank £#%&! that's over.

All things considered, it's not the worst performance. EtH got it right tactically but once it started going wrong he had no answer. It was compounded by some crazy substitutions.

The season is over. We need to be ready with a new manager an targets for next year.

Title is still mathematically possible. We’ve just got to dust ourselves off and win every remaining game.

Immediately takes him off and surrenders the game. Unacceptable

It was a dreadful decision. ETH has terrible hand to play but he’s made it far worse with shit like that.

Anyway, I thought it was going to worse than that….

Does that mean we get a point?

Rashford’s goal was class though

Still, good news about the F.A. Cup.

Liverpool have been excluded?

The counter broke down mostly due to Rashford going missing. However by keeping that left triangle of Dalot, Mainoo and Garnarcho there was a slight chance we could still do something.

Too surrender that immediately was a joke.

Do we have an obligation to buy Amrabat? Or can we just dump him? He doesn't appear to have any sort of talent whatsoever.

Followed up by the most brain dead act I’ve ever seen in a game balanced that way.

Kick the @#%&! out tonight. Give him a vid of his goal and celebration as a parting gif.
