A staggering win for City... they were always going to win it but 6-0? :O

Shame it was so one-sided for most of the game, Watford started out well but fell apart when De Bruyne came on.

Now our hammering by Arsenal 4 years ago is nothing more than a distant memory :| Deano Deano Deano

Looking forward to United's "Treble reunion" game this weekend... Fergie managing a team of veterans including Ole, Scholes, Beckham, Sheringham, Schmeichel the Nevilles, etc.

Then all we need to do is hang onto them for next season :D

Dortmund were quick to finalise the deals to bring in Brandt, Thorgan Hazard and Nico Schulz. Others should take notes instead of these prolonged transfer sagas spanning entire transfer windows.

Getting rid of Sarri after one season in which he's finished third, reached the finals of the league cup and Europa league sounds like such an odd move. Though with the looming transfer ban and Hazard potentially leaving it might be better for Sarri himself as he's rumoured to have several pursuers back in Italy.

I think Sarri was over all let down by having absolutely awful strikers, Giroud, average at best and Higuaín just never settled at all, missing a sitter in his last or 2nd from last game which led to Chelsea fans singing for Tammy Abraham, that isn't exactly good for confidence!

Also I'd like to point out Tammy Abraham is not the answer, I like him at Villa, he scores goals, hes done a good job for us, 1st bloke to score over 25 in a season for us since Andy Gray I believe (1977) but he also misses a lot of "easy" chances, I'd be more than happy to see him at Villa next season (should we get promoted) but hes a long long way of being anywhere near good enough for a team near the top, that said Tyrone Ming isn't, I love that bloke and is our best loan signing in my life time, maybe along with Jimmy Milner back in the day

Heading down to Wembley tomorrow, well 4 miles away got a hotel booked for tomorrow night and Monday night, hopefully to celebrate, can't explain how nervous I am, the though of suffering this heartbreak 2 years in a row isn't bearable, more confident this year than lost though, as I'd seen us play Fulham in the league and get stuffed, where as Derby we've stuffed twice this season, although of course its still a 1 off "cup" final.

Worst part of losing is the thought of losing Grealish and the highly unlikely chance to sign Tyrone Mings and then potentially losing John McGinn!!

Quick mention too the Newport fans, although they should be in the welsh leagues!! too lose like that today, I can't even imagine Deano Deano Deano

Really enjoyed the United treble reunion, definitely a case of showing the young 'uns how it's done ... reinforced by a goal from Ole to get things started, followed up with a 5-0 win.

Yeah I know it doesn't mean much in the real world, but it put a smile on my face and raised a lot of money for charity.

"Solskjaer has the same amount of goals this season at Old Trafford as Alexis Sanchez."


Derby giving Leeds shit for bottling promotion when they're known for doing the same as well. Seemed only fitting it ended this way - congrats to Villa.
