Man City vs. Man U: Why it matters

Manchester United coach Jose Mourinho has lived his life on the hot seat, and this game could be make-or-break moment as Man U faces intracity rival Manchester City. City coach Pep Guardiola has his team on an unbeaten streak to start the Premier League season, but Mourinho is the rel reason to watch Manchester City vs. Manchester United online. The two-time UEFA Champions League winner has been in charge of his fair share of big clubs, so he doesn’t want to leave this job with a whimper, and a loss would give the Man United board and the Glazer family plenty of reason to fire Mourinho. Both teams come in looking to make a statement.

Manchester City’s philosophy for this game is the same it has been under all of Pep’s reign: to possess the ball and make quick passes upfield to try and get in behind the defenders. This strategy works most effectively when teams give City all the possession, which is exactly how United plays. Pep is the footballing wizard who believes in overwhelming opponents, while Jose wants to defend and beat you by one goal on the last kick. It’s not the Manchester derby, it’s the latest installation of Pep vs. Jose.
