      I have been saying this for most of the season, but, then I remember one season under SAF, we were really badly hit with injuries and played Michael Carrick in defence because we didn't have any cover, we still finished second only one point of the eventual winners Chelsea, with injuries, with a lot of key players missing, but, everyone played out of their skins that season they'd have run through a wall for that man. I don't get the same feeling with a ETH side, what a few injuries again next season and we can look forward to another 8th place finish? injuries are a part of sports It's how you and your team deal with it that matters and ETH made it his excuse for our poor showing this season. Maybe give him another season but rn I'm not 100% sure about him.

This is basically ten hags first game with an almost fully fit squad and he managed to beat city convincingly. Sure, they were awful in the league, but so was arteta when he first took control of Arsenal. Give ten hag at least another season and then if he doesn’t get Europe again then sack him.

    I'm in agreement about Amrabat, he got some horrendous balls pinged at him and he managed to control and distribute well and did some fantastic disruptive work against city's playmakers.
    I remember hearing/seeing someone talk about the ball in behind when Leicester went on their terrific title run and Vardy murdering defenders with pace and I feel the ball in behind tactic is often dismissed in modern football and incorrectly diagnosed as being boring/route one football and is tarred with the English managers who've used it in the past with big target men (even Mourinho used it with Drogba) and ETH has absolutely done Guardiola with it today.

    What we did so well is playing from the back. We absolutely destroyed city's press with top quality passing and counter attacks. That is why you need your first choice centre backs. Martinez was important in ball playing. That playing wasn't possible if our centre backs were injured. That is why ten hag deserves more time. No manager will do well with so many injuries.

After that first goal though United looked much better and then after the second goal they looked the best maybe all season. After half-time Pep changed some things tactically and City took control, created some chances but were a bit unfortunate until the 87th which was too late to actually make the comeback. United defended deep and well. They were hoping for a City mistake in the transitions and capitalised for the first goal then capitalised on the momentum for the second.

    I think you have to look at our manager history the past 10 years and do something different. He has won us trophies. He has had the worst injury record in the premier league to deal with. He has brought through two very important players in Garnacho and Mainoo. The biggest criticism is honestly the signings and the direction they go with them, something INEOS themselves can address and should be focused on more than sacking Ten Hag.

AWB I personally am not the biggest fan of, however, he was fantastic today. Didn’t give Doku a chance one on one. I actually think AWB is an average/poor attacking defender, but his tacking and marking is second to none. He is almost a TAA in reverse.
    Mainoo and Garnacho showing why we have hope at United, the youth is of the highest quality. Rashford in the first 45 played well too. Fernandes is the engine in the squad. Honestly, ever player put in a 8/9/10 performance to me. UTFR

    Tactically it was fantastic the whole first half city seemed clueless how to break them down while looking vulnerable to be hit on the counter attack and even in the second half their only attacking plan for the most part was giving the ball to Doku. They were restricted to actually just passing the ball about and not having space to move in to and if it wasn't for Onana's tiny mistake it would have been perfect. Not many people will give Ten Hag credit for it as they only think good tactics involve holding onto the ball and passing it around and many were more interested in trying to get him fired after than actually praising him.

  • @PTG44

    I thought a mistake Manchester City made was not committing enough players in the wide areas. The narrow shape was good but they were vulnerable to the ball down the line and at instances in the final 5-6 minutes when City did commit players in the wide spaces a lot more especially down the left Wan Bissaka, Amrabat and Garnacho were pulled our of shape giving space for the center half's to progress further up the pitch and to give Rodri more impact on the game. More of those overlapping runs from Bernardo Silva or Gavrdiol would have been helpful

      @caoshuan748 You don't get my point if they had Foden receiving the ball wide left in the first half and Gvardiol was on the overlap. It would have made Manchester United commit players out wide and open up space on the centre where Rodri can slot in to receive the ball or make a quick switch over to the other wing. In the second half, Pep did do that but Doku was the lone man receiving the ball out wide and if they had a midfielder or a defender making overlapping runs it would have opened up space in the centre of the pitch where a Foden or De Bryune could have had more time on the ball to do something rather than swarmed by 2-3 red shirts everytime.

    Was a typical Goliath v underdog, and thats football! Sometimes the underdog wins and thats why we love football! Also felt like man utd clearly wanted it, city didn't care

      They definitely cared. Pep got it wrong tactically and United capitalised on City’s mistakes then defended well and got a bit lucky

    This video is a brilliant breakdown of how Manchester United were able to win this game and how Ten Hag outsmarted Pep. Thanks for making it, it was a great watch especially as a Manchester United fan.

    Ange did this with spurs a few weeks ago, they had a brilliant 1st half performance agaisnt city. Problem was home fans weren't supporting them and their final product lacked
