Underdog Football from Manchester United

 Underdog football sums up Manchester United's abysmal performance at Old Trafford last Saturday.

In the second half the defence was poor and the attack was firing blanks. City, on the other hand , were showing their superiority and looked like the home side rather than the away side under pressure. Whether you believe that United are the devil's team or not, they played like middle table mediocrities badly in need of a radical overhaul.  

The United goalkeeper, Andre Onana, played magnificently and made some world class saves, beautiful to watch.  He is the best player in their squad on current form, though Rashford shines from time to time.

City are a quality side, which the Red Devils cannot match at all this season, perhaps for some time to come.

It is unlikely that Erik ten Hag will be there for much longer, but it's a funny old game.


Manchester United 0  Manchester 3.

Oh dear, it's December and United are still firing blanks, playing mediocre football.
