City were far more dangerous than Chelsea I thought and walked away with the 3 pts. Ok home vs away match but still Chelsea had 1 attempt on target in the 1st half. I still think they will take the title but a long way yet.

Agree with Urban, United are still building their squad

It takes time, first he had to do damage control, he's managed to get some amazing players, if someone told me Di maria would be playing for United i'd have laughed.

And started building a team he wants. And its starting to pull together. I would have scraped Fellaini ages ago, but hes managed to get him playing well. Come transfer season United will have better center backs. And should make the top 4 in Premiership.

I wish they have bought Vidal, think he would of added some strength to the squad

Yes, and there is no way Moyes could have attracted guys like Di Maria to United.

Wow is that correct, makes you think when you see it layed out in front of you.

Saying that Vaal Gaal has a good reputation of success so i think people are more confident with him in charge. To be honest i think Giggs would have done a good job, but he would of needed time.

And man u have a reputation to uphold. So they need wins asap

But think he will make a great future captain

It would be deserved after Rodgers besmirched their proud European heritage by throwing the towel in on Tuesday night before the game even started.

Good find Aaron

"Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has angered Christian fans by dropping Jesus from the clubs Christmas nativity scene, insisting He be kept fresh for Easter."

Lucky on one hand but should have been 3 without Di Maria trying to copy Rooney!

Agree with Brun, lucky on one hand, but if Afc play like they did then they're ripe for the counter and they got what they deserved.

McNair looked quite fragile at times but Smalling looked slightly more reassured at Centre half.

An interesting fixture tonight, should be a good battle what with the "History" between the two managers.

If it wasn't for rvp we would've come unstuck there. Fellaini done nothing but give the ball away, and McNair looked out of his depth at times. Glad to see rvp looking more confident again and really wanting the ball. Not looking forward to Liverpool, but the fixture always has a little extra to it.

Fellaini's done well so far this season I think, especially when you compare to last year.

Fellaini has done loads better this season, but was so poor last night. But he wasn't the only one, Rojo hasn't been amazing this season and was poor last night, i've not Rojo fan, don't think hes good enough. Man u player need to be consistent.

Rooney is good up front if he has a decent player to supply him with the ball. And the best 2 supplies are Rooney and Di maria.

Form books out of the window time Can't seeing us getting anything better than a draw without any decent stirkers though

TBH the form book has always meant nothing in this fixture, I remember the all conquering 80's team getting turned over by us and when we hit the heights in the past 2 decades you'd always do well against us.
