Erling Haaland nets a brilliant second-half brace for Manchester City as the Citizens cruise past rivals Manchester United 3-0.

Ale Moreno was left confused by the way Ruben Amorim set Manchester United up in their derby defeat to Manchester City.

Pep Guardiola has said Manchester City need Phil Foden to get back to his best if they are going to have a successful season.

Ruben Amorim delivered a defiant response to suggestions he should change his 3-4-3 system at Manchester United following a 3-0 defeat at Manchester City by saying the club must "change the man" if they lose faith in his philosophy.

Pep Guardiola hopes Phil Foden can return to his best after his goal in Manchester City's derby win.
