City vs United Squads

I usually hate these combined 11's as they at times don't consider systems, tactics, style of play, recent form etc

But having seen a few on the internet in the last few days, considering that Both teams have spent similar amounts over the last 10 years, I was shocked at the difference in quality of players. The gap in quality is scary particularly in attack and midfield. Here is a quick scan. I have put some = to prevent arguments but I'm sure most will differ

Goal keeper
Ederson = De Gea>>>>>>>>>>>>>Ortega>>>>>>>>>Jack Butland

Right backs
Kyle Walker>>>>>>>>>>>>>Dalot=Wan-Bissaka>>Rico Lewis

Left backs
Luke Shaw>>>>>>>>Cancelo=Malacia>>>>>>>>>>>>Mendy>>>>Gomez

Center backs
Varane=Stones=Laporte=Dias>>>>>>>>>>Martinez=Akanji=Ake>>>>>>>>Lindelof=Maguire


Defensive Midfielders
Rodri=Casemiro>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Phillips=Fred=McTominay

Central Midfielders (No 8's)
De Bruyne>>> Bernardo>>>>>>Gundogun=Erikssen=Bruno>>>>>>>>>>>van de Beek

Attackers/Wingers
Foden>>>>>>>Mahrez>>>>>Grealish=Anthony=Sancho>>>>>>>>>>>>Palmer=Garnacho

Strikers
Haaland>>>>>>>>>>>>Rashford>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Alvarez>>>>Martial>>>>Elanga

I wasnt sure where to put Rashford as he can be classed as a winger/attacker. Was generous saying De Gea is = Ederson. Must remember Wan-Bissaka cost 50 million. He is not a terrible player by any stretch of the imagination but his development as a player has been affected by their poor choices in the selection of managers.

Another thing, the United squad is very thin and ETH has released a lot of players. Not sure why people bang on about it being better than Arsenals.

Didn't see much quality from City's front 6 tbh. I thought Haaland had overslept and missed the team bus.

20 times. Enjoy your weekend berties. 😁

As a Man Utd fan this squad has the biggest depth in quality in last decade. We actually have too many players when you think of it.
