Manchester City 2-3 Manchester United: 5 Talking Points 

Manchester City v Manchester United - Premier League
The script was written for Pogba to steal City's thunder

#2 Manchester City corked the champagne bottle and cursed their luck

So cl
So close Pep! So close!

Pep Guardiola's side have been, by some distance, the most dominant force in England and one of the most in all of Europe right through the campaign.

Their Spaniard master-tactician has got his side to play some of the best football to come out of the club. Ever.

On the night though, a game of two halves saw the Citizens get terribly busted while United had a couple of aces up their sleeves - Sanchez and Pogba.

This, now, to add to the near-perfect run of results which saw them go unbeaten for the majority of the season in the League ending brutally at the hands of Liverpool and then some more Liverpool-dealt heartbreak in the Champions League in Europe which has almost certainly ended their hopes of progressing any further in the competition.

After such a stellar showing for so long, Pep and his team of relative youngsters marshalled by the men with wisdom have slowly faded away near the end of the campaign.

What could have been? A treble, an unbeaten season or the title against United: take your pick.

All that has come to fruition is another league title and some League Cup? That's not how Pep does it though, is it?
