I'd be tempted to swap Martial for Rashford, since we know Rooney isn't being dropped.

Based upon form thus far, you swap Martial out first before Rooney.

Rooney defends better than Martial -- especially when we can safely anticipate City owning possession.

I'm not sure about Rashford's defending.. although neither am I about Martial's.

So how many quid of transfer money is going to be on the pitch tomorrow morning?

I don't know the total, but on twitter someone (maybe Premier League) was saying the most ever.

Wow. Thanks!

City: £289.25
United: £328.1

So...more than the GDP of some developing nations.

The reason I picked City to win the League is I assumed De Bruyne would be healthy all year. What a player, perfect first touch and beautiful finish. City dominant so far.

Of course Bravo has a gaffe in his first game, and nearly two gaffes. That was a wild half.

Rashford has done more in 45 seconds than Mkhitaryan and Lingard combined in 45 minutes.

My goodness Bravo is having himself an adventure today. Probably should have been a penalty.

Hartless is obviously guaranteed to be in many of them.

Probably should have been a penalty on Bailly there. Rashford has to start from here on out, his impact is undeniable.

Game kinda ran out of steam in the final 15, but overall an entertaining match, even if Bravo was the reason it was so entertaining. City's ceiling if they can get a fully healthy team is scary good.

The lineup still isn't right / Rashford is so obvious, Smalling should be in as well. Pogba isn't doing enough. They were still right there with numerous chances to score but Jose needs to sort out his best lineup.

City deserved the win, United were very poor in the first half. De Bruyne was excellent.
