Lukaku with a second wonderful assist

Requiem for Mou.

[Milan 17,835]

Lukaku certainly upgraded his game against top 6 teams. From being an invisible man to a key man assisting the opponent.

Watching Lukaku right now makes the criticism (albeit mild) of Morata look silly.

Pool failed to win against Rooney.

Pep always does this strange things. Aguero should be on the pitch now to end the game

Lukaku's show

So at the end of the day, even with our disastrous lose the weekend was not so bad after all. Everybody around us dropped points, except Spurs. Maybe the people who though we had a chance to catch City are the most disappointed.

[Milan 17,835]

So much pressure from United!!  Embarassing, but on the other hand City did extremely well and the final 6 minutes were tactically spot on.

Lukaku MOTM

Pep was not even our opponent last year, Spurs were.
It shows that he did a brilliant job in the transfer period.

City's title

[Jase 43,479]

Not liking the fact that City are probably gonna break our league records (most wins, most points etc)!

[positivefootball 195]

Pep is the best. Amazing.

Jose destroying United ... Enjoying it ... hahahaha!!! From being notorious in attack under Fergie to parking the bus sorry the correct term by "United fans" playing "counter attacking football" they are going in the right direction. Keep going, Jose. 

 

P.S. United & Chelsea ensured that Delep is a world class player because both never exploited that left side. 

[Milan 17,835]

One just has to admire what is happening there - 16 games played, 15 wins, 48 goals scored already, 11 points gap, consistent performances with some late winners. All that while playing attacking minded football. No contest whatsoever this season. It would need a massive, massive blip to let other teams racing for the title again.

Watching Mourinho fail again is a wonderful thing, that must be said.

City winning the PL is hollow and meaningless to me personally, so more power to them. If it's not us they're the most palatable club.

Really, really don't want them to win the CL, though.

[Panic 57]

I only watched the second half, but City weren't that impressive and the game seemed to be up for the taking. Granted, Manchester United actually had to play football to do so.

[El P. 1,354]

It is not them winning the league that I hate. It's that they'll probably break all kind of records, maybe even be new invincibles, and even more important - they have a team which can dominate in England and Europe for a lot of years to come..

They could win most of the leagues in upcoming years, maybe even UCL. And then, they will be about leveled with us in the number of important trophies. Their project just screams 'longevity' and ours actually never did. And they will have this really good football, people will always admire that.
