We got a great start but we didn't press the game well enough. City have won the league title for the last two seasons but this term trail runaway leaders Liverpool by 22 points. The Carabao Cup finalists have have lost six league matches, compared to four in the whole of last season, but responded to a 2-0 defeat at Tottenham before the winter break with a 2-0 victory over struggling West Ham on Wednesday evening.
Rashford, who has scored 14 league goals this season, picked up a back issue in the 1-0 FA Cup replay win over Wolverhampton Wanderers on Wednesday after coming on as a substitute. The 22-year-old scored the opener when United held Liverpool to a 1-1 draw at home in October, the only time Juergen Klopp's side have dropped points in the league this season.
It was something of the same old story - although Arteta will surely be aware of what needs fixing when he finally gets down to the serious alterations to the team he inherited.

Spurs still in fight for Europa League - MourinhoTottenham manager Jose Mourinho: "During the game nobody thought about it, even myself I didn't, but Arsenal had 48 hours more than us to rest, so it was hard.
Kane has overtaken Martin Chivers to become Spurs' third all-time top scorerBut while Kane is central to his new manager's plans, Mourinho said that the selection of Christian Eriksen - a substitute at West Ham - will be based on a "perspective of the future". The Denmark midfielder, 27, is out of contract next summer and has been the subject of intense transfer speculation since the club's Champions League final defeat by Liverpool in June.

He was like a breath of fresh air. Fernandes got up to take the spot-kick himself and put United 1-0 up: "What a penalty it was," said Crouch"He has done all of this after joining in January too, and at a team who were not playing well and needed to sign someone to make an instant impact. He has definitely done that. Yes, it will have helped that he was playing well for Sporting before he made the move to England but he has still come to a different country and had to adjust to the Premier League.
The veteran former AC Milan and Bayern Munich boss has been in charge at San Paolo since the summer of 2018 and oversaw a second-place finish in Serie A last term. However, they now sit in seventh, some 17 points behind current leaders Inter Milan thanks to a nine-match winless run and there have been widespread rumours of internal strife.

Joe Montemurro's side outclassed their opponents and there was a similar gulf between the teams at Kingsmeadow, where Australia star Sam Kerr started on the bench for Chelsea, after her debut the previous Sunday. The 26-year-old, who holds the all-time goal scoring records in both the American and Australian top divisions, entered the game at the start of the second half but was unable to get her first Blues goal.
Meanwhile, Union Berlin have similarly been a part of plenty of open games on their travels this season. They have failed to keep a single away clean sheet in the Bundesliga this season, after playing five Bundesliga away games. Furthermore, both teams have scored in three of Union's five Bundesliga away games.

Media playback is not supported on this device A brilliant finish from Bernardo Silva doubles Man City's lead It is not the first time that Guardiola has questioned the support of Manchester City's fans, with the 49-year-old disappointed that the club only sold 25,000 of their 30,000 allocation for their FA Cup semi-final against Brighton last season.
Play like Dele'. England international Alli has struggled with injury and poor performances which have seen him fall out of favour with Three Lions boss Gareth Southgate. But former Chelsea and Manchester United manager Mourinho says the midfielder has the potential to be a "fantastic player". Now I have to create a tactical situation he is happy with, give him the right dynamics and prepare him physically well because he has had important injuries and he is not on the top of his form," added Mourinho.
Rangers manager Steven Gerrard: "We weren't good in the first-half. Defensively, I felt nervous. But I'm not shocked and surprised at the outcome because it's happened too many times of late. I'm going to have to try and find solutions. I'm going to have to work even harder than we do as a staff to find solutions and get back to the basics of defending.
With the score 1-0 to the Gunners, Arsenal's then clean-shaven striker took exception to a nudge from Nedum Onuoha, jumped up and thrust his face into the QPR defender. Onuoha fell to the floor, referee Martin Atkinson brandished a red card and Giroud walked. Fortunately for boss Arsene Wenger, Arsenal survived a QPR flurry and held on to stay in sixth place.

Traore ran down the right and found substitute Daniel Podence. His effort was blocked by Lewis Dunk and the loose ball fell to Jimenez, whose shot took a slight nick off Adam Webster and Ryan saved. Wolves - who have only beaten Brighton four times in 32 league meetings - pushed for a late goal but none came, with Jimenez laying the ball off for Dendoncker to shoot over.
Only four points separate 19th-placed Watford fromn Burnley who are in 14th place. Southampton's relegation fears have all but disappeared after they beat Crystal Palace 2-0 at Selhurst Park to move into ninth place, three points behind Manchester United. Nathan Redmond and Stuart Armstrong were on target as Southampton claimed a fourth straight away win.
Aubameyang struck in the 12th minute, steering a low shot past goalkeeper Vicente Guaita after he was put through by Alexandre Lacazette, with Arsenal dominating an uneventful first half at Selhurst Park. Ayew levelled in the 54th minute with a heavily deflected shot which left keeper Bernd Leno stranded after it came off defender David Luiz, as the visitors failed to clear a tame-looking low cross from the right.
It was a confident performance from les Aiglons on Saturday as they beat 3rd placed Angers 3-1. Patrick Vieira's men had been in a bit of a sticky patch until recently but have managed to resurface themselves with two wins and a draw in their last four matches. These results all came against some pretty tough opponents so fans will be happy with the performances but they have another difficult one here as they travel to Saint-Étienne.
But it can also be one where dips or upturns in form can see teams either plummet or climb the table rapidly. A glance at the form guide for the bottom eight gives an insight into who is feeling the pressure and which clubs are giving themselves a fighting chance of survival. Hull beat Stoke in December with two goals from the now departed Jarrod BowenHull and Middlesbrough find themselves in absolutely identical form since the turn of the year.

The pressure was on, but Barca got the job done. Sergio Canales gave the hosts the early lead from the penalty spot after Clement Lenglet stopped a Nabil Fekir shot with his arm. However, Frenkie de Jong found the net just moments later as Barcelona struck back immediately. Betis regained the lead before the half hour mark with Fekir firing a low finish past Marc-Andre Ter Stegen after Samuel Umtiti backed off.
On the other hand, should City receive some sort of punishment but it is stated there was no intent to cheat and their breaches were purely technical, the club will feel justified in adopting the stance they have taken and move on with confidence, even if the arguments around them will continue to rage. While it will be too simplistic to judge City purely on severity of the sporting sanction laid down, the secondary issue, around a squad containing some of the biggest names in the game - managed by the most decorated coach - is virtually all about Europe.
Report: Southampton 2-3 WolvesReport: Arsenal 1-1 Sheffield UnitedElsewhere, Watford missed out on the chance of a fourth straight win when Troy Deeney had a penalty saved by Tottenham keeper Paulo Gazzaniga, but the 0-0 draw means Nigel Pearson's Hornets are unbeaten in seven games. Report: Watford 0-0 TottenhamReport: West Ham 1-1 EvertonReport: Brighton 1-1 Aston VillaHundreds of West Ham fans protested about the running of the club in the week of the 10-year anniversary since David Sullivan and David Gold took over, while on the pitch the Hammers were held to a 1-1 draw by Everton.
Having faced and turned over one of the clubs they were promoted from the Championship with in the summer at Carrow Road, the Blades will be aiming to repeat the trick when they host play-off winners Aston Villa at Bramall Lane on Saturday.
This is relegation form. Do the club realise how tricky this will now be? "There are football people at the top of the club that need to make the decisions. Arsenal will plunge even further down the table. Emery brushed aside questions on whether he would remain in charge if eighth-placed Arsenal fail to win at promoted Norwich City in the Premier League on Sunday.
Liverpool may have had a rough patch in the recent matches but we don’t think they will have much trouble against Bournemouth. They have a great run at home and playing a struggling team, with a very poor away run should not pose a big worry for the Reds. Bournemouth played well against Chelsea and we don’t imagine they will make it any easier against Liverpool, especially with the threat of relegation looking real. With Liverpool struggling lately, Bournemouth will want to pile pressure on them and they may get a goal though we don’t think their defence will hold off Liverpool for 90 minutes. A 2-1 win for Liverpool could pass here.
Another match, almost perfect for plenty of goals today and that will be my option, without any dilemma. So, Hoffenheim is team who is always very motivated against Bavarain Gigant and probably will be same and this time. I was watch their match in Munich, at Allianz Arena, when they are beat this rival and also, two weeks ago in Cup, when in duel this rivals was 4-3 for Bayern. I'm pretty sure that this duel will be same and I will try that here. It is more than ok and I can also said that odds are pretty good.
Brighton are not exactly going great either and I am a bit worried about my old team because they do not seem to be able to kill sides off. The Seagulls are easy on the eye and more attack-minded under Graham Potter than they were under his predecessor Chris Hughton but they still don't score enough goals. I admire the fact Potter likes to play out from the back but his side don't appear to have a great deal of guile in midfield and the way they play just allows teams to sit in against them.

That has not yet been released, but the Mirror newspaper claims that Casilla is to have called Leko a “n*****”. The 33-year-old former Real Madrid player has also been fined £60,000 for his transgression. Paper Round’s view: If the Mirror’s report is accurate, then there can be no surprise that Casilla has received such a hefty ban, and he may even be fortunate to not have been punished further.
Correct call! 30’ Ter Stegen gets away with one! What a gaffe that was from the Barcelona goalkeeper, passing the ball straight to Vesga, but the Athletic Club man lashes his shot wide of the target. That could have been the opener! 65’ Off the post but it's offside! Barcelona strike the woodwork, but the flag was up for offside.
Liverpool need just four wins from their remaining 10 games to guarantee their first league title for 30 years. It is always nice to get a trophy," said Sterling. Now it is the business end and we have a lot to fight for. We are one trophy down and confident we can go to do major things this season. It is just as special as always. If you are not winning trophies you will finish the season very disappointed.
Watford (18th)Arsenal (away)Recent form: LLWWLLIf Villa win, then Watford need to better their result by two or more goals to stay up. If Villa draw, any Watford win would ensure their safety. If Villa lose, a Watford draw would be enough. The Watford owners made the shock decision to sack manager Nigel Pearson with two games to go, despite the former Leicester boss guiding them off the foot of the table and out of trouble when appointed in December.
It was not like after one week I had to leave. No, it was mine. I left everything there; my television, my books, my computer. It was a flat with 'bring me a coffee latte, please', or 'I don't want to go down for dinner, bring my dinner up'. If I was watching football or doing work with one of my assistants I would ask; 'bring us food'.
Verona’s survival bid is impressive, especially as manager Ivan Juric had a terrible top-flight record before this term. His spells with Genoa didn’t inspire much confidence, while we still question his ability to edge a big game like this. Verona's last win against Roma in Serie A was back in October 1996 – the Giallorossi have won 10 games and drawn five since, so Roma have an obvious advantage here.
