Always feel City will need at least another goal or two here because Utd always manage to get back into these games.

Different game with Donarumma, unreal keeper. Game changer

I said to my son today that Bournemouth v Brighton game was a 3rd Divison (South) match when I was a kid. Some of their older fans must think they're in Dreamland.

Tidy goal

 

[Rorschach]

How?

 

[DubSpur]

Has to be three there. What were Utd playing at?

 

[Rorschach]

Top strike and save

Ain't he just.....unreal signing for City

 

[DubSpur]

That's brutal from Utd

 

[Rorschach]

I hate city but this is the one fixture I have no problem parking my distaste for them

Amorim reminds me of Ange, stubborn fudge who won't change no matter how much evidence that his sytem won't work

 

[Kandi1977]

United once again proving they can beat anyone.

Blimey we must have been cut adrift at the bottom after 27 games?

 

[Jurgen the German]

Good. The only other team winning it are the Goons, so long may this continue....

Yep. I don’t understand why people are annoyed when Liverpool win. It’s in our interest that they keep winning.

 

[Robspur12]

my money is on Glasner replacing Amorim.

 

[Bedfordspurs]

I've seen nothing yet from any team that makes think they are league winners in waiting, no one has really got going yet.

So far it already looks more like previous seasons and not last
The lesser teams look more inferior and the few better sides look much better
Pool are top and have been pretty average at best. I don’t think that can last but they are also bedding in players which may be why… but they are still top
Arsenal to me so far pool like flat track bullies but we will see how that pans out. They are of course the only team suffering injuries too

It seems to me to be more about him being such an abrasive character. He's made half a dozen players train away from the first team in less than 12 months, he's called his team crap and said he wants to quit a few times. I'm sure there's a connection between that personality and his stubbornness in his tactics, but to suggest the troubles are all down to playing a system that many teams play is very short-sighted imo
