Shaun, Dale and Brian digest events at the Etihad, the frustrations of Marcus Rashford Rashford, an FA Cup quarter-final with Liverpool and, of course, your questions. The sheer thrill of Marcus Rashford’s stunning opener after 8 minutes led us to believe we were on the cusp of a magnificent victory away at City, but the Reds couldn’t keep their rivals out in the second half and we ultimately proved to be second best as many expected. We discuss the performance as well as Erik ten Hag’s gameplan and the many wild reacts that followed on from the 3-1 defeat. Some players, such as Casemiro and Jonny Evans, were unable to sustain a 90-minute performance against a team of City’s quality. There’s also a few who are simply not good enough. United did not have the quality on the pitch, or squad depth, to make Pep Guardiola’s side as we slipped 11 points adrift of fourth-place Aston Villa.
