The heavy loss of Man United players to Man City made their chance to land in the Top 4 now like a wind lights up. This was a match that disappointed many Man United players.
Wan Bissaka made silly mistakes. Captain Maguire, as usual, still shows a very bad face. The central defender's miscalculation was also a factor in the Red Devils' first-half goal.
Elanga was like a rare light in Man United's gloomy scene at the Etihad Stadium last night. Although the young striker's efficiency is not high, his fighting spirit is something very luxurious for many Man United players at the moment.
It is easy to understand why one of the legends of Old Trafford was sockened by his former team after last night's match. Former midfielder Roy Keane said: "There are 5-6 players who should never wear the Manchester United shirt again. I can forgive for my mistakes, but not forgiving them for not running back to defend and not blocking the ball is unforgivable. I only care about what you show on the pitch, not about other garbage."
What MU needs right now is the fighting spirit of the players before thinking about winning a title.
Sir Alex sat in the stands and witnessed everything. After the reign of Sir Alex, Man United has spent a lot of money in the transfer market. But almost no one is brave enough to carry the DNA of the Red Devil. From Van Gall, J. Mo Mourinho, Solsa and now Rafl Rangnick, they have all been unable to revive a Man United side that has lost identity.
This defeat is certainly not the biggest nightmare for the Red Devils fans. Maybe one or even many more years, if they do not change completely, they will still be overshadowed by the noise of "neighbors".
