The all-encompassing TV thread.

[Gerontophile]

Berba: serious question: who do you want to win the Manchester derby?

I like City, but if Zlatan is playing, then he wins.

[Gerontophile]

3-1. In either direction.

[Jah Womble]

Kenny Dalglish always looked knackered after about 4 minutes? Kevin de Bruyne always looks freezing.

Yes, one doesn't get the impression that there are many types of climate that would work for Mr de Bruyne...

[Gerontophile]

I have to mention yet again, that he looks like the Prince ginger.

[Gerontophile]

There is a thing about City... there is the possibility that they will rip your heart out at any second.

[Gerontophile]

11 minutes, and United look like the away team.

[Jah Womble]

Jesus, Oliver really bought that dive from Walker. Probably should've been a second yellow. (Which in turn could've proved a useful suspension for next week's visit of his old paymasters...)

[Gerontophile]

WELLIE IT! JESUS!

[Mr Beast]

Man Utd running after the referee every time they're tackled, which fortunately isn't as often as it should be as they never have the ball. And every time they do get it Rojo bangs it sixty yards straight to a City player.

[Mr Beast]

Lovren will be out in January, you'd have to think. His inability to fucking concentrate is a bit of a liability.

It should have been several January's ago. The longer it went on at 1-0 the more I found myself agreeing with Hobbes.

[Gerontophile]

WELLIE IT! JESUS!

OK, not you Nicolas.

[Gerontophile]

Oh, please fuck off Rojo.

Well, I retract that quite heartily, if that is blood. Sorry.

[elguapo4]

I have no idea what Thierry Henry was just talking about

[Gerontophile]

I've got Lee Dixon. I think you win.

[Jah Womble]

'These games are always fantastic spectacles', the media tells us every season. Well, the only aspect of this match that resembles 'spectacles' at the moment is the scoreline.

It sort of works if you think about it. I doubt I'll open with it, however.

[Gerontophile]

Depends, really. You could probably get 5 minutes, with Stephen Fry's accent.

[Gerontophile]

You bald headed genius, who is not Iniesta, you.

[Gerontophile]

FOR FUCK SAKE.

[Jah Womble]

Depends, really. You could probably get 5 minutes, with Stephen Fry's accent.

Yes, perhaps. I think I'll hang fire and rework it in 2020, however, when my cleverly-observed optician material will be at its most relevant.

[elguapo4]

That's a gift

[Satchmo Distel]

All that dominance thrown away. But a draw is not a disaster for MC.

[Jah Womble]

City back in front. Life will find a way.

[Third rate Leszno]

Lukaku appears to be performing some sort of Dejan Lovren tribute act. He's really nailed it, I have to say.

[Gerontophile]

Zlatan is in the vicinity.

[Satchmo Distel]

Can't recall two such sloppy goals being conceded by a Mourinho side, and at home.
