I'm loving this. If Mourinho gets shafted tonight, he's gonna lose his head. You already know he is gonna freeze out Mkhitaryan and maybe some other underperformers if he looses this match.

Classic jose team in a big game btw. Absolutely no press resistance or pressing themselves and no creativity.

Ibra is the typical PlayStation player. Usually a top 5 player in videogames, because he loves to score against small sides. Lost two huge chances in the last minutes of this 1st half.

What the fuck are talking about 😂

Yeah no creativity from Mourinho team. He always needed a big time striker to bail him out. Ibra right now is what Drogba used to be. 

But it's clear that Pep has a game plan for city and it's slowly coming to effect. 

Thank god we also have a man that has a game plan for us as opposed to what we had.

Disagree on both points. Besides being more powerful, what does Pogba do better than De Bruyne? Nothing. KDB offers much more to a team.

Pogba has incredible box to box qualities. We haven't seen anywhere near the best of him yet, and I think part of it has to do with him playing in a double pivot.

Man City playing absolutely orgasmic football, but it's not just that, they are so good at putting pressure on the Utd players.

Man Utd very lucky to get that goal, Citeh should be out of sight now, big half coming up!

Is Pogba a box to box? His defensive contribution is pretty crap.

He's obviously a world class talent but clearly needs to be played in a specific position to show his best. He looked useless deep in midfield for France at the Euro's and is lost here as part of a "2" as the box to box. He needs to be played further forward.

De Bruyne on the other hand can play on either wide position, as a #10, or as a #8. He's more versatile.

If Chelsea could sign either player I'm taking De Bruyne back.

Man City were so dominant in that first half - loved it.
