    CL semi all over again this. A billion passes but not going anywhere. Then a moment of madness from the Jordan Williams school of central defending.

    Expect Man City to come out fighting second half. I’m sat in a pub full of Man Ure fans in Menorca and they’re getting a bit excited. Wouldn’t mind them shushing a bit second half.

    They've been shocking have City. Rodri and De Bruyne misplacing plenty of passes. Just getting done out by low block and passing with speed out wide with long balls. Uniteds second goal was fantastic!

    Never thought I'd one day be cheering for United over City but here I am. Hope they hold on.

    Master stroke keeping garnacho away from Walkers pace that first half. Subtle change, made a big difference.

    Agreed, I've switched allegiance during the match too. It's also given me an idea as to how to fix the Prem - let City et al. spend as much as they want but for every £100m loss a team makes they have to give the opposition a goal start every game. Far more entertaining than points deductions.

    Where has this United team been hiding all season. They are playing very well.

    Gave up on it, thought it was a poor game, Utd with everybody behind the ball most of the time, and City just constantly passing the ball about with no idea where they are going.

    Could do with a city goal here to make the last half hour or so interesting

    I don’t think I’ve ever seen a top player bottle the big occasion as much as De Bruyne.

    Never seems to show up in finals.

    Dragged off again & rightfully so.

    ETH looking like winning a trophy before he's sacked.

    Never thought I'd be hoping for a City comeback but if it keeps Egos United out of Europe then so be it!

    Not sure. Work to do now they have conceded at their near post. I thought I was watching Roberts.

    Awful goalkeeper. No way is he an improvement on De Gea.
