To be fair Zlatan did score almost 30 goals in about 53 games. Not a bad strike rate for a guy in his mid-30s. Only Kane and Aguero exceeded that.

The mistake was to believe that a 36yo could come back from a career threatening cruciate ligament injury and be the same player.

That was Mourinho's own Schweinsteiger/Falcao.

We didn't expect a lot and all we can do is thank Zlatan.

just found this gem regarding the 0-0 at Anfield

Hopefully Jose will beat City to delay the league title .Can he do it like Klopp did today?

Man U players and the coach are LAZY. They can only beat City if Pep decide to field a C team They are just there to do fashion parade.

reluctantly agree

where are those who will fight/die for the jersey

Off the top I'd say these will fight for the jersey: Lukaku, Herrera, Bailly, Valencia, Young, Rojo, Jones, Rashford

depends on Mourinho thinking on match day, if he says, lets go for broke and attack, attack, attack, City will suffer, if he decides his cautious approach, united will get beaten

actually he did not. he passed the ball

2-1 and we scored all the goals

"He passed the ball."

we need Bailly to stay fit, easily the best central defender in the premiership

We need to fix our defence next season, dont care if we won or not, these things are glaring

and United must be sick of WBA

WBA have lost only one of their last 6 games at Old Trafford.

That was a tepid, limp, pathetic "performance" from Man Utd. They could not even raise their game after WBA scored.

Funny enough the last time Man Utd lost to the bottom team in the EPL (Blackburn in 2012) - it caused a ruckus in the team that led to Pogba leaving in frustration to join Juventus. That was the (in)famous game where Man Utd had an injury crisis and had no fit senior midfielders. Pogba thought SAF would pick him. Instead SAF picked Fabio da Silva (a full back) and Phil Jones (a CD) to play in CM ahead of Pogba. That was the last straw for Pogba who thought if he could not get a game in CM (his position) ahead of defenders, the end was nigh...

Non-prominent Zinedine ZePog nowhere near Team of the Year. As foretold. #ColourMeBad.
