Add Bruno Fernandes cos he is likely to leave too.
Hmmm... Bruno might yet be convinced to stay if the squad truly improves this season with him playing a key role in it.

I really feel for him. He needs at least one reasonable trophy to be proud of.

Guardiola was surely high on something today. How can you start with that kind of experimental backline in a derby... Foden should have played that left flank instead of Doku. Start Foden bench Doku, bring Doku in second half, he's more dangerous that way. Then, what kind of manager subs EPL best striker for a rookie huh This man no just well at all.

Angelfrost:
He has to... That's wisdom.

You can't leave your best and only viable midfield player that long when ahead by 2 goals.

Just reason am na... What if he gets injured or carded. Casemiro is prone to the latter.

If not for red card, Shea Lacey suppose come in to properly trouble City.
Yes ooo

Bye bye City. Arsenal or Aston Villa takes the trophy.

True. That's why I stay away from predicting Man Utd matches. They are way stronger than they display in most matches but whenever they are up for it that means big trouble for their opponent.

Thanks to Ruben Amorim, he got us some good players but got himself sacked because of tactics

Anthony Taylor is a wicked referee, cancelled 3 goals just to favour man city but God pass am.

GGMU.

He did really well. The only time I've seen united play with this kind of morale this season, was the first game against Arsenal. I hope things works out well for him. He defeated Guardiola hands down in this game.

Honestly, the title might just be decided at Emirates next weekend if Arsenal wins today.

Arteta really can't believe his good fortune cool
No team has deserved good fortune more than Arsenal, years of ridicule will end this season.

Still too early to know if Carrick is the right man for the job...but this WIN will be appreciated for a while 🙂
You're right but you know he did well before Amorim abi the other bald headed guy was brought in.

Carrick spent years with Sir Alex and he understands the club's history and the way they play.

He allows the players to express themselves which brings confidence.

I now agree, arsenal has won the league. It looks highly unlikely that they will bottle it this time around. With the way they are playing, it is almost impossible for Man city to keep up with them
If Arsenal win today and win next week against Man United, then yes, the league is over. Until that happens, it's game on

Devil still dey wound? I thought it's usually the lion😸.
Honestly ehn, Arsenal fans are as delighted with this result as United fans, if not even more so.
That scorelines was just flattering. This game ought to have been 4 nil. Just within a very short space of time, see the effect that Carrick has on this team. When you're good, you're good.

Even without featuring Sesko who suddenly rediscovered his scoring form, they were able to pull it off.
Well, City gatto go get Guehi now o, coz this makeshift defence aren't getting them far.

Angelfrost:
2 Nil!

This game is done! That's if United's defense don't go to sleep.

Arsenal, over to you... Get your 3 points before these "Wounded Devils" visit Emirates next week. lipsrsealed

Re: Manchester United Vs Manchester City (2 - 0) On 17th January 2026 by lagonovo: 3:44pm On Jan 17
In fairness, Ole was going good until United decided to hijack Ronaldo's transfer. It was a gamble that failed but United never needed Ronaldo at that point. Ole was going in the right direction but his squad dynamics changed with that decision.

Honestly speaking, and he has said it before. That if not for loyalty to Man United he would have gone elsewhere and gets many trophies

Lol... They officially signed Guehi yesterday. grin

Hopefully he helps sort their defense.

I was expecting a far better performance from City's front line.

When I saw that line up, as a Man United fan I just lick my lips. It would have been a disaster if Man United had drawn this match talkless of losing
