Man City players all send same Manchester United jibe after derby win

Sunday was a great day for the blue half of Manchester as Pep Guardiola's side ran out 3-0 winners in their Premier League derby clash.

Manchester City laid down a marker in their title defence with the win over their bitter rivals, while Manchester United’s defeat was their fifth in just 10 matches this season and left them 11 points adrift of leaders Tottenham.
