De Gea saved them today but just like against Spurs, United won another big game because of the opposing team's mistakes. Can't win if they don't make them (e.g. vs Liverpool and us).

On the other hand, Arsenal are complete idiots. 30 minutes to go, only one goal in it and they decided to go full on gung-ho and leave themselves open to be countered. :doh: The decision to put 4-5 players in the striker's position was a farce as well. So many players forward but all did nothing. No variation, no nothing. All just stood in straight line. :doh:

Same here. City are already out of sight so another win means nothing. Going above United is my preference.

25% of the ball and only 220 passes completed for United against bloody Arsenal.

Arsenal with 33 shots against United's 8.

Look at all the tin pot clubs when playing away at Barcelona, PSG, Bayern etc. and you will find the exact same stats.

Diabolical for a club that has invested that much money to be completing only a little over 200 passes together away at Arsenal. Bare in mind this was not Barcelona, Madrid, Paris, Munchen etc. really difficult grounds, it was bloody Emirates.

Deluded United fans turning more and more into Liverpool fans with each and every day say it was a Mourinho masterclass, but who the hell buys into that? They have De Gea to thank for and no one else.

Mourinho did not outclass anybody tactically, as a matter of fact this was the most dominant Arsenal I've seen against United in many, many years. 

Think March/April is where Mourinho is going to fall out with everybody again. They will be out of the title race and humiliated in Champions League by a big club. These disgusting tactics will work from time to time against Arsenal and Spurs, but not against Paris or Barcelona. Imagine United going away to these teams and playing the same way they did last night. Wow, can't wait for that.

This is getting annoying how lucky City are. They are the best side in the country by a landslide but this is still more luck than they deserve

I don't know. 

 

De Bruyne makes that pass 9/10 times. Especially with no pressure. 

13 wins in a row. The league is all but won.
