    If I supported anyone other than United, I would loathe Herrera.

    Yeah he's one of them players, can see why Utd fans love him though.

    If United score first I'd worry they'll be able to shut City out for the remainder of the game.

    Herrera is an easy target for most teams. He is rattled now.

    Why?

    If I was the ref and saw an extra minute of this sh?te was being called for, I'd say f?ck that and blow it up.

    This is putrid.

    He has a shorter fuse than Ronnie Pickering to be fair. Easy to get into his head.

    Considering the ref won't give a bloody foul, despite City already having missed out on two bookings, maybe there is a need.

    Jaysus phb blast from the past!

    He gets worked up too easy. He missed a simple chance two minutes later then because he is worked up.

    Good news is United aren't losing. Bad news is a draw is not good enough. Have to win this game for the rest of the PL to be of any interest.

    What's it have to do with Liverpool? Herrera clearly has a short fuse, he has moments like he did with Fernandinho quite often.

    Well when the ref is clueless it doesn't help. Fouled about 3 times by toure, then Fernadiniho comes in like a big mowler on his tractor and the ref does nothing

    Annoy anyone

    Poxy game. City without Silva don't have enough to break down United's defensive set-up and Mourinho will be happy to let it play out like this, hoping to nick one on the break.

    Not at all impressed with the ball rotation of Toure and Fernandinho. Too slow, too passive, should be finding one of the front 4 between the lines more often. Sterling, and particularly Aguero have missed big chances.

    Man Utd rely heavily on Fellaini once City get into a shape, when they counter they are looking to Martial and Rashford on the break but City's shape has dealt really well with that so far. Guardiola will be delighted about that, but may be less delighted to not be a goal ahead and to not getting their patterns right in the half spaces.

    Ref isn't great tbf, but you can't ignore the fact that Herrera has some temper. The type of player you love when he plays for your team, but everyone else absolutely hates, like Costa and Suarez.

    You would never think this is a derby game. Lacking that bit of fight from both sides

    Pogba has had a very quiet first half.He really needs to up his game in the second half.Just not good enough from him so far.
