this game just showed what absolute pretenders MAn City are. They talk the talk but when its time to stand up and do it on the pitch they play with the small time mentality that they're all about and go for a draw at home. Utd much better team on the day, pleased with the performance. |

kinda in two minds about the game. United were the much better team on the pitch so nicking a point is good. That said our defense was solid. I was however really dissapointed with the midfield going forward and the forwards. everyone woked their socks off but there was just not enough of a creative spark best I've seen united play in some time, so tops to the defense

Ha ha City you bunch of bottlers. United the better team without doubt and could have won but few options for us after the two injuries. Fergie would have planned to bring on Obertan and Chico otherwise. Scholes was simply class as usual, absolutely ruled that midfield

Didn't see the whole game. Not that impressed with either team tbh based on what I saw. City not ambitious enough, they really have to go for it more. City started the game wanting to win but scared to lose. United show much more spunk in a derby. They looked better in parts but still couldn't get past City, so it didn't mean a great deal in the end. |

United just didn't have the cutting edge up front, apart from that they put in a good performance. Without the injuries Park would have been off, he was awful in the final third. Kept giving the ball away around the City box. Without our best players we still outplayed them and that will give the whole squad a great deal of confidence (and the fans too). At least we had the right mentallity. |

Yeah i'd have liked to see Obertan come on and run at one of their FBs. Shame we couldn't raelly change the game cos of the two forced subs. |

Bit surprised with the Berba swap although I can understand it he wanted to nick a goal at the end and chico offered that fox in the box. I would have preferred him swap Park for Obertan, Berba was playing well. |

United always have the right mentality in these games. City were playing like they were afraid United were gonna sting em again, United looked stronger. I think they were missing creativity, Johnson and Balotelli probably would have given them more of that. Wouldn't really say United outplayed City either but then, I didn't see enough of the game. Who were you missing, apart from Rooney? |

Rooney, Giggs, Valencia and Anderson the main ones, but Evra and Rafael going off was a big blow as we lost most of our attacking down the flanks. We had no real width after that in midfield, even Nani who was on the left came in field. |

Meh, you probably did better without half of that lot United will always be the better team until City rely on more than Tevez's energy. Yaya just made me laugh today.

What day is it?
|
what game where you lot watching? You make it sound like united where great, it was 2 teams today who where both happy with not losing. Also the best 2 chances of the game fell to us!! In my 15 years of having a season ticket at city that by far has to be the worst darby match I've had the misfortune to watch |
