the front trio of D James, Martial and Rashford were going pass the City backline with ease.
but also much thanks to the 3 VAR decisions which went in Utd way.
Fred this time looks better with McTominay n Lingard alongside him.
also credit to the back 4.

Good job!

what a derby game, nail-biting until the final whistle

man u had a blistering 1st half with counter attacking play, rashford is in hot form and could have scored more. he is more suitable to be deployed on the left than martial. 2nd half was all man city as they tried to get back in the game, they were incisive but their finishing cost them and man u had DDG to thank. good work rate and defending overall and man u was lucky with VAR calls

some gripes though:
ogs is still insisting to play out from the back, they couldn't pass their way out of city's high press and kept conceding possession, lindelof got caught (heart attack moment ) but wan-bissaka bailed him out. mctominay sometimes stray out of position and created holes in midfield, fred is still lightweight, lost possession at the D (another heart attack moment )

the team needs to improve their defending on set pieces, wan-bissaka let otamendi got better of him


ogs has to continually work on cutting out mistakes and improving consistency (against teams outside top 6), in time this young team will mature and challenge for BPL/UCL
