Good win. Another tail of "possession doesn't win football games". Everyone played very well.

People might talk about the free kick we scored from not being a foul, but 10 minutes later Martial and James go 2 on 1 and Fernandinho falls over and the ref gives it... so swings and roundabouts.

Really City lost today because United defended superbly. There was a great moment in the game where AWB tackled Sterling. Both players then went to recover the ball before AWB, realising Sterling was only going to try and beat him again, decided not to bother.

Let's not hold our breath for the media to criticise a really poor team selection by Pep Guardiola.

AWB is a brick wall. Fantastic option to have, completely locks down a side of the pitch almost by himself.

Big thank you to Ederson for the 2 goals, but we really should've had a pen in the first half as well - instead Fred got a yellow! Mike Dean man.

Love watching United when we play like that - unbeaten in 10 with 8 of those being clean sheets. Hopefully the corner is turned - but I'm betting we'll torch Spurs this weekend, waltz past LASK twice and then Norwich will probably take points off us, seems to be the way at the moment.
