City falter and United… also falter? My current perspectives of the sworn enemies, and do we need Rashford anymore?

City falter and United… also falter? My current perspectives of the sworn enemies, and do we need Rashford anymore?

After a raucous late 2-1 win at the Etihad on Sunday, United fans such as myself were in absolute jubilation. It was a different kind of performance, one which we haven’t seen in the past from United against City. They tried to control the game. They tried to have possession against City, rather than hitting on the counterattack at every given opportunity. Now, against a strong City, this approach would inevitably be bulldozed, as was seen when Gvardiol scored the opener for City and the first half ended without much energy.

And then…. Amad Diallo, you little dancer. 🕺🏻

He won the penalty for Bruno’s equaliser, and then scored a fantastic winner....
