We're still in with a good chance, City have been so patchy this season, especially without Aguero.

Credit where credit's due to Solskjaer, last night's performance was mighty impressive against strong Everton side, this could yet be another false dawn but feeling somewhat optimistic ahead of next game at King's Power.

the team is starting to gel. Hopefully Vardy is out for the match cuz he is a top 6 slayer.

While its going better im very worried it’s running way too much through Bruno‘s individual brilliance. He is phenomenal. Even when he has bad games he still never quits and runs himself up and down the pitch all game. Reminds me of United in 2009/10 and 2011/12 where Rooney was the only star and if he didnt score/create goals for others or was injured/off form it was a total shitshow. And Rooney got ticked about that (rightfully so). Hope the success continues cuz Bruno can slot in anywhere in any league at every top team. Thank goodness United got him.

That said this squad has way more young talent than those later SAF years. Having a frontline and FINALLY a decent midfield that can rotate will help a lot too.

This is first time in a really long time an impressive performance was followed by another good display instead of falling into the usual circle of mediocrity of taking one step forward, one step back.

Even a draw against Leicester wouldn't be a bad result considering we then have a double header at Old Trafford against Wolves, who are half the team without Jimenez, and Villa, who are even more reliant on Grealish than we are on Fernandes.

Decent result and a very good performance against Leicester, we created a lot of chances - Rashford missed two sitters among others, and defended really well, Leicester scored with pretty much only half chances they had other than an early Vardy miss.

Beat Villa and Wolves at home next and Liverpool at Anfield on 17th of Jan will be very interesting b)

Villa and Wolves won't be easy, curious to see if it's going to be another Ole out meltdown or two fantastic results from United.
