    I don't watch much Premier League football. In fact, this is only the second game I've watched this season.

    But I'm ironing my shirts for the week and for my holidays next week.

    But why is Gary Neville on comms for a Utd game. He's not making any attempt to be unbiased.

    He keeps saying the penalty is a soft one, when it's as stonewall as they come.

    now I’ve never particularly been a Neville fan, but I’d say he is being pretty fair overall with his comments and he did say it was a penalty.

    See I'm the opposite, I don't mind Neville usually, but I'm finding his commentary a bit one sided. It's like watching MUTV, he's making comments about Man Utd and how poor they've been, but not passing too much comment about City.

    He did say it was a penalty, but with every replay he gave another reason why it was a soft one.

    I guess we all see things differently.

    Man U deserve to get beat. Leaving Haarland unmarked and all on his own for that second goal.
    That is Sunday league stuff.

    Personally think Neville is one of the best pundits in the game and says it how it is .

    How have Man United spent the money they have and got a starting XI so bad?

    Man U getting worse and teams around them improved and got better there’s no way they’ll finish in the top four.

    Ordinarily I'd agree, but I was getting a bit fed up of him going on about those first 7 minutes when Utd looked alright.

    Wouldn’t say he s being biased. More that as a fan he’s just angry at how poor they are. I’ve heard him praise City a lot in the past.

    I thought he was very unbiased it was a soft penalty but was complimentary to city and pointed out man u captain was a disgrace and should have walked for losing discipline.

    If I was the Man Utd manager I’d stop Fernadez’s wages - channelling all his efforts into being a wingey g*t and doing nothing constructive for his team.

    Great to see Man U get absolutely totally stuffed.
    As for Antony and that moaning arse Fernandez, they are both a disgrace to the game.
    Stonesy was so so impressive. One of our own.

    Ten Haag's got some big problems there... out of possession they chase mildly, in possession they all stand still.
