Man Utd getting absolutely demolished by Man City here. Brightly though Arsenal have started, I wonder if they can keep pace with Man City for the season? Be interesting to see if Spurs can stay up there too. Early doors, but very much looking between those three just now, although much may depend on injuries to players at the World Cup.

An absolute doing , didn’t expect anything less. They will be judged on Champions League success , thats what Haaland is for !

He's breaking all sorts of records in that too. Some player! Ripping the PL apart like nobody I've ever seen. Hard to believe he's only 22...

A game of two halves that. City won the first one and United the second.

After City took most of their best creative players off!
Ronaldo must be pissed although he’s being paid millions to travel across town to sit in the sun/rain

Even if City hadn't scored in the second half, they'd still have won 4 - 3...

I mixed up GMT and CET, and settled down for the kick-off of the second half!

From what I saw United won

They edged it on goal difference.

City weren't the only side to put six past a Utd team.........the future is bright, the future is blue and white...🤣

New Manager time for the Wolves, let's see which Mendez client we'll have next.

At least Costa had a run out and looked reasonably fit.

Such a shame the Utd fans left at half time and missed their triumph.

Happy Days!

At least they will have been in plenty of time for their trains back to London.

Wonder if altering the points system would encourage better matches generally and give the fickle supporters a reason to stay.
Double the current points system for the final score and award the current points for each half so Man C would have got 9 points and the rebranded Newton Heath 3.

I was at the London Stadium on saturday and i don't think you should have any worries from what i saw of Wolves.Plus you still have some quality players to come back from injury.

End of season scenario:

Anytown rovers need five points from their final game to win the league and Othertown United need three to avoid relegation.

Not for a second am I suggesting games would be rigged, but...
