The Manchester United Thread

I wonder what was said in the dressing room at half time. It has definitely had the right reaction is all I can say.
 
It's a shame City have so much of a lead, if this wasn't basically a glorified friendly it would have gone down as one the best derby games of all times.

******* cracker of a game... loving it.. :)
 
Maybe United should start every game with a ****** handicap. Going 2-0 down seems to bring best out of United players.
 
De gea so good he makes decent saves look world-class. Use your left-hand mate, no need to show off to the cameras.
 
Couple of comebacks like that really build the team spirit.
 
I bet the away dressing room is bouncing today I'm sure Jose would have told the team to enjoy themselves ;)

Amazing comeback, Jose needs credit but we've got to address CB and FB and CM in summer.

Never in doubt :P How fitting for Pogba to produce that after Pep's attempted mind games involving the French superstar prior to the match.

And here is where we will differ, I watched the City game, and for 45-something minutes couldn't believe how badly wrong he had got it. We looked plain awful, huge gaps for City to exploit and but for the fact Sterling couldn't hit a thing we would have been 4 or 5 down by half time.

Superb comeback, granted, but from two nil down against the best team in the country not a 'success' as we had to fight back from said two-nil down.

Results are good against the top six BUT, how many of them come when he has to switch from Plan A to plan B? The top managers get Plan A right the first time.

Only time I really felt Mou got it right first time was against Liverpool, with the long balls over their high press but even them, 2nd half we looked 2nd best because he changed things.

Yes, it was a fantastic fight back against City, one of United's finest, but I am hesitant to give Mou all the credit, as I feel, and am hearing, the players were the ones who fired themselves up - Young, Pogba, Herrera in particular.

It was Sir MAtt who once said "Winning isn't everything, winning in style is what matters" and I just don't see Mourinho as 'United'.
