good result but still not the greatest performance in the world.

Having Scholes on the bench shows how weak our squad is and is almost a death nell to the career of Pogba who is meant to be a decent player but clearly Fergie prefers a player who's retired to a younster who could be the future.

Never a sending off and shows what the game has come to where a decent tackle, where the player wins the ball , makes no contact with a player but gets sent off

I thought it was a definite red card. Two footed and high, he could have very easily broken Nani's leg/ankle. Any other European league there would be no complaint with that decision.

LOL. The post match Interview with Manchini is good, he isn't helping the interviewer much.

I seen Giggs do a two footed tackle afterwards...same tackle..no card.

Referee had an agenda,..which he delivered

My guess is that he was asking about the stonewall pen that the ref missed.

I think that the game of City v United was ruined by the farcical red card from Foy, and Rooney telling the ref with hand signals what he saw.

No way was it a red card, hinged on a yellow but not a red.

I think the game to watch is Posh against Sunderland, Posh are a good side and think they can pull off an upset here.

I could do with a pair of your glasses now and then

SAF was complaining about the amount of time that was added on.

Micah Richards on twitter - 'We lost today but in our heads we won'

I suppose he scored that overhead kick he completely missed in his head as well. What a tool.

Apparently city are going to appeal the red card. Hopefully the FA uphold it and he gets the 4 match ban, which will be a massive blow for city.

l am sorry but it is a injustice that Kompany now has to serve a 4 match ban for what at most was a yellow card offence.
