Man City vs Man United standings

Manchester City entertain neighbours Manchester United at the Etihad Stadium. Rodri is out injured for the hosts, while Marcus Rashford is fit to start for ...

Silva hangs up a cross for Haaland, his header is blocked, De Gea thwarts De Bruyne from the rebound and Silva has his own strike blocked in the goalmouth. He has the luxury of being able to field a winning team once again with the minimum of fuss. Marcus Rashford netted twice in the Arsenal win before being withdrawn due to a hamstring injury. Rashford then takes his turn to give the ball straight back to City, Foden runs Malacia and both United full-backs are now on yellow cards. A combination of Eriksen (!) and McTominay certainly didn't and his near-post header was over the line before Malacia intervened. One of the things to recommend about this United display was they were keeping Haaland quiet. Varane, who left the pitch and returned to the eye of a hurricane can do nothing as Haaland slides in behind him to extend City's lead. De Bruyne storms through midfield threads it down the left for Haaland, who arrows a ball back across goal for Foden to finish. He's sort of in that right channel he likes but it's still a pass he has no right to make. United's threat on the counter-attack was supposed to be a factor today and they've been ripped apart by one. Gundogan sends a lively backpass to Ederson, who volleys the ball skywards. Silva slides a pass for Haaland, who thumps into the side-netting at the near post.

"It's like the game is too big for United. Like some of the players have been overwhelmed by the occasion. Pride, personality, they are not showing it.".

“If the club just depends on Pep then the club is not doing really well in this period. “If you change managers and players a lot it is more difficult. Said Guardiola: “When a club depends on one person they have problems because the club is not solid. The foundation of the club is why the team is solid. “The club knows exactly what is the target and the next step,” said Guardiola. He was recently filmed walking down a street by a United fan who told him he had moved to the city’s wrong club and had a shop to Sainsburys documented by a national newspaper. The challenge facing Manchester United is still considerable but there's a lot of disruption there to be spine of Manchester City's team. City with a dangerous thrust down the left, the ball is crossed. That is just how it is in my world now, and I can’t complain about anything.” There's the big man sliding it at the far post for a nicely controlled finish and City have their third. Goes through the United defence like a knife through butter, cuts it back for Phil Foden, whose shot is wide. Grealish, in the inside left channel, is given the ball by Haaland and should probably have shot.

Not a single celebration from Manchester United as bringing the match within 6-2 isn't anything that the team should be happy about. Pep Guardiola will be ...
