In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
This is reminiscent of a lot of City games this season, dominating but not turning that into goals or a result.
City's passing and movement is immense. The only thing they can't find is the net...fair play to Soton
Crazy how City just can't put the ball in the net. Not sure how much longer Southampton can withstand this amount of pressure.
Ederson's reputation now preceding him. If you knock out one of your own guys to clear a ball, it sends a message.
He jumped over the clearance. He should have got there
This right here is why we got caned by Liverpool over the season, profligate in front of goal, other teams burying their chances that they get too easily. Great in between both boxes put poor actually in both.
De Bruyne trying the Pogba pass. 
Shame he doesn't knock out KDb for a few weeks
Long on, game over.
Meh. That goes without saying.
He is going into his last year so apparently will cost around 30-40m.
The Real game will be interesting, can't afford to miss many chances against them.
Comments like this would carry more weight if City hadn't absolutely shit on the league for 2 seasons in a row with that style of football.
Saints at home won't be easy if they play with this tempo. They've had to rely on their keeper a bit but they have worked their socks off.
Any, I'd say
BBC's crowd noise seems a lot better than the others', more in tune with the game, good level.
Always a tough game Southampton.
Even when we beat them it's always really close.
A lot of 3-2's it feels like.
KDB having a shocker after coming on.
Yeah it's a tougher game than it appears at first glance. Their away form is surprisingly brilliant.
Our front 3 are better than the City front three (in this game at any rate).
They've earned the scoreline up to now though. Let's see if they can hold on
I think he's pretty reliable...... but for a mid-Prem side like us.
Pombal Bruno and De Bruyne
Yes, that might be good
Yes, that might be good
Soton are defending fantastically well.
Watch City score now.
Watch City score now.
They shit on the league because their midfielders and forwards are better than rest of the league, and not because Otamendi can pass the ball better than Matip.
Even when they were at their best two seasons ago they conceeded awful lot after defensive mistakes, but their forwards made out for that. That's why they are dominating English football and not European football. And their defenders pretending to know how to play football instead of actually knowing how to defend is one of the main reasons why they are 20 points behind Liverpool. Btw, that same Liverpool shat the league by playing hoofball, so there's that too.
Makes a change
Thats not a bad price, i heard you might re-sign Stones too, what are your thoughts?
super defending
This match is a good reminder that we must not be complacent and avoid rotating too much. It's why I want us to go full strength for all our games and sub players off if we're in the lead!
You guys need to cut this out when you play us.
Terrific work rate from Danny Ings so far...
Reckon City will score in the 85th and then in the 93rd. It's the "Southampton Way"
Zinchenko has got great first touch
Then an Ings double in the 96th and 9th
Saw he was playing Manchester, forgot it was the blue lot not red.
I agree with this. Love watching us play but not surprised that neutrals prefer the watching City play.
Klopp was criticised a lot in his first couple of seasons here for playing entertaining football but ultimately not winning anything. He has changed rhe way we play and made us incredibly efficient in both boxes which is why we've won so many games.
Jesus always looks like he's about to burst into tears
Yes.
City can rotate, they have nothing to play for in PL, and have good bench. Who we gonna rest in a must win games and every one is for the rest of the season and who to put on the pitch? Andreas, Jesse, Diogo, Calamity Eric, Mata?
Only Fred, McT, Ighalo and Williams. Rest is meh.I think you’ll hang on. You’re defending like beavers.
