Eras come to an end.


"I admire them both, Man City and Liverpool. They play fantastic football. But eras come to an end." said Ten Hag.

Manchester is red and will always be. I love you, Ten Hag.

Every player stood up when we needed them and played for the badge. We had City in our clutches for most of the game, restricting them to one shot on target. A tactical masterclass from the boss.


City was dominating after the break and looked like they would secure a goal one way or another, which they did, but the team showed resilience and did not let the setback affect us as we grabbed two goals in the space of 4 minutes to complete the turnaround. One of the important things the team lacked in recent years was the mentality, and it has improved a lot this season as we did not let a setback that is City's goal affect us in any way and pushed for the win. As Bruno said, we used to be a group of individuals, but now we are working as a team, playing for each other.

I don't care what people say about Bruno's goal. They can cry me a bucket. Bringing on Garnacho changed the flow of the game as he was more effective than Antony, with Bruno returning to his preferred role too. Amazing assist from Garnacho. 


Rashford is inevitable. A goal in 9 consecutive home games, a record dating back to 1959 for a Manchester United Player. Fred was phenomenal as he had De Bruyne in his pocket for the majority of the game except the one time he was baited by Maharez and Silva, letting de Bruyne to get an assist. Casemiro had a good game and came out with an assist while also making crucial blocks in defence. Malacia had Maharez in his pocket. Wan Bissaka who was in the transfer list entering January has secured his spot in his team as he redeems himself every game.

The atmosphere was electric and passionate the whole of 90 minutes. Old Trafford is finally becoming a fortress once again under Ten Hag. We have beaten Liverpool, Arsenal, Spurs and now City at home. 

Is the title race on? It's still January, and we shouldn't get excited. We still have to work on certain departments, and we go game by game. Martial had a stinker once again. We signed Weghorst at the right time. Perfect player for the team. Next up, Palace and Arsenal. If we win them both and Arsenal lose against Spurs, the title race is going to be three-way between Arsenal, City and United.

Imagine if we have this team under owners who genuinely want the team at the top challenging for the title every year. 

GGMU.
