Graeme Souness

So there's going to be very... I'd be surprised if City, because you'd expect them to get probably to the Champions League semifinals, you would expect.

You'd be surprised if they have more than two

three midweeks between now and the end of the season.

That's the only thing I can see stopping them and giving Liverpool or Spurs, whoever it may be, an advantage in the title race.

I think if it was just one game a week for every team, you'd probably fancy City on the back of what they've done last season.

The other teams haven't proven themselves as winning the league yet, but I think that's the only thing that could really stop them.

Yes, what we saw at Newcastle, the lack of concentration, maybe being too easy, but there will be a backlog of games for City between now and the end of the season.

What do you think on that?

It's an excellent ball in from Luke Shaw, talks about the United full-backs pushing on, he's in between defenders, Maguire's looking at Chilwell, Chilwell's looking at Maguire, neither of them deal with Rashford, it should be 1-0.

He does the right thing for his teammate Rashford, who again has appreciated Pogba, is looking for him, it's just great understanding.

Really difficult to get your knee over the ball and get the power you need, the direction.

Yes, why not?

I think the team just above them, I think they've got to play them, haven't they, at home?

Yes, at Old Trafford in April.

I mean, yeah, I think so.

Why not?

Listen, I actually believe that Man United are second behind Man City in terms of the best squad in the league.

I've believed that going back to sort of last season.

Even defensively?

OK, maybe not.
