It's quite funny. Everyone was talking this weekend about nobody wanting to win the title this year. Before yesterday's games Chelsea and Arsenal are on the same points as they were at this point last season. Man U are +4 and Man City +13. I think it will be close between the Manchester clubs. Man U have the tougher away games left but City had a difficult festive period and are struggling to break teams down at the moment. City also can't write off the Europa League like Man U as they need to do well to improve their seeding for future seasons in the CL.

Neutrals? There are neutrals watching this? GTFO Red card may be harsh, but life is tough and the first goal came against 11men

Holy shit the outcry and hissy fits if this was the other way around. First goal did come when they have 11men, but counting Man city out when ur only 0-1 is silly. Anyways Ive turned over to the golf now, as u'know for neutrals the games over.

standard lol I was going to say - an awful lot of 'neutrals' don't seem in the slightest bit neutral. If I'm a neutral in any game I want to see lots of goals and action - I'd have thought this game would fit the bill pretty well

Unfortunately after 10 minutes this was never possible.

Quite surprised by how many people were writing off Man City's chance once they went a man down - it seemed a lot less likely when they'd conceded 3 as well; but most people seemed to be writing off their chances after 12 minutes

(A night when I cheered on Liverpool for probably the last time ever)

Probably also in the (un)neutral camp and I thought the red was fine. Annoying it possibly spoilt some entertainment but the ref's not there to make it entertaining.

Yep. Joke decision. The guy took the ball. Perhaps we should just make football a non contact sport and have done with it. Man Utd had a blantant penalty in second half too that he didn't give. Foy is an embarassment.

Good game in the end, thanks to the 2nd half. Congrats Utd. Fwiw as a neutral to these two sides I couldnt careless who won, just wanted to enjoy the match, which I did in the end. Still a ridiculous straight red, imo.
