How Manchester United's shamed 'Class of 92%' were tormented by Bernardo Silva and Man City
It was that most wonderful time of derby day for Manchester City fans, when Gary Neville begins a heartfelt lament and Roy Keane starts planning his full-time tirade.
"Manchester United's response to going 3-1 down has been embarrassing," Neville said on Sky Sports, shortly before Riyad Mahrez joined Kevin De Bruyne in bagging a brace to make it 4-1.
"I have never seen anything like that in any game of football."
Neville was aghast at a period of total domination from City between the Mahrez goals, with an on-screen graphic stating they enjoyed a scarcely credible 92% of possession over a 15-minute period.
Can that really be allowed to happen in a game between two professional football teams? Neville branded it "shameful".

71st - A rare lapse from Jack Grealish sees Sancho pinch the ball off him, and Jesse Lingard launches a United attack. He finds Marcus Rashford, who stays onside. At this point, all conviction evaporates for the out-of-form England forward, who dribbles forlornly into a combination of John Stones
