Good win for United, but I really don't see this brilliant football they're supposedly playing.

This match is much more funner.

I only saw the first half hour, they had a lovely move where Pogba had an effort well saved after about 3 minutes and their goal was really well worked.

Mourinho presumably had words at half time.

Tipping Spurs and United to finish outside the top 4 of the 'big 6'. Spurs are nowhere near as good as everyone thinks they are.

Liverpool's bench today is strikingly dire. Bit less depth in the squad than I'd thought.
Notable they didn't make an attacking sub despite chasing a goal for the whole 2nd half.

Looking at Chelsea's next few fixtures and the fact both Arsenal and Liverpool are playing City before the end of the year, Chelsea could start to run away with it a bit. Obviously still early days though.

Long way to go, but you'd always take a nice cushion going into Xmas

I genuinely don't know where I think the title will go. I tipped Chelsea for it this season about Feb last season but have thought it very little since, until the last few weeks.

I certainly wouldn't be ruling City out.

Chelsea are looking a good shout at the moment and they've got an opportunity to pull a gap because IIRC they've got a pretty kind Christmas fixture list.

However, Conte's benefitted from being able to name a settled XI. Will be interesting to see how they go if they get a couple of injuries, particularly if Costa's hamstrings go again.

Never really thought about this before, but it's massive nonsense that Real Madrid came 2nd but can't draw either of the best two sides in pot one because they're from the same country. You know they'll get Leicester.

Leicester will have earned their cushy draw on the pitch then, rather than through ECA lobbying

Yeah, it's why they won't win the thing for me. Can make similar observations about Spurs as well.

Arsenal's depth about be tested too with Mustafi out. Gutted that he won't be available to play against City, but at least Aguero will be out for that game as well.

LOL Arsenal ****ed as usual. They'd have been ****ed even if they finished 2nd, since PSG are facing Barca.

Can't remember the last time Real Madrid had a challenging last 16 draw. They faced Man Utd. once in Mourinho's last season there, and benefited from a weird red-card.
