Only one place separates “Manchester city” and “Manchester United” in the Premier League, but they have very different seasons under different managers…
First against second, with the title at stake for the hosts against their biggest rivals. It doesn’t get much more. And yet, something was missing. This is because the gap between the two Manchester clubs is 16 points from seven games to play. Manchester city is going to become the first ever winners of the Premier League.
It was a season of contrasting fortunes for two top-despite the fact that there is little to separate them in the betting from the start. This does not mean that PEP Guardiola got the better of his old foe Jose Mourinho, but, as it was for most of his career, while they have a storied history of success, as it’s all so different.
Cities are main for the possession and passing accuracy. Organization to take sixth place for both. City have the most shots of any team in the Premier League, while conceding the least too. United sixth for each of these things – again, the rest lagged behind their rivals at the top of the table. In other words, of the big six teams in the League, Manchester United at least near the town.
Paul Merson believes that the city should play the strongest team on Saturday
That’s what makes it so interesting when Mourinho discusses the city’s expenditures. The implication is that if he had these resources, his team will lead in the table. Fans of Mourinho will look eight championship titles, which he picked up in four different countries and argue that recent evidence suggests that the Portuguese were right.
However, this evidence also tells us that he would have won otherwise. If two clubs were the leaders of the swap, the same players in the hands of Mourinho will look different. He would feel differently. Even if they are still up a record points total, they certainly are not tormented by the recording completion of the entire process.
On the other hand, these same players would not have been thrashed by Liverpool. Just as Guardiola was the mastermind behind her team’s success, it can also be the Creator of his death. The desire to choose a path through the minefield Anfield is fraught with danger. Mourinho would like to avoid this option. Mourinho made the wrong option.

The United boss was pilloried in the deadlock for his team in the same place in October. Men Mourinho, however, that none of their rivals this season, Liverpool scored and stopped in front of their own fans. They won too recent meeting at old Trafford. Defend deep. Turn of defense. It’s like ripping off Liverpool.
Focus on frustration is likely to be a Ruse on Saturday, too, as organizations set about the sweltering city. Guardiola’s side may not be crossed. Maybe not outplayed. But they can be overtaken. It’s too late to make the season, but Mourinho can still take a day.
Whatever happens, wait for the contrasts, as the rivalry continues…
