Manchester United vs Manchester City 2-0 - Full Match Highlights - Premier League

So Michael Carrick's latest Manchester United brief is somehow to maximise 17 games between now and May. Here is the 11th with which he launches. For Selah, Lomond and Goal it is a first Manchester derby. September's game came just too soon for him. Carrick welcomes Harry McGuire back into his defence, which after an epic uprest also includes Luke Shaw. For Kobe Maynard, a new page has turned. He starts in the Premier League for the first time since May. Abad straight back from AFCON. Mountain, Kunja excluded. Dogu, a theoretical back five option. And Brian and Bermo also returning from international duty, right up top at the expense of Benjamin Shesco. And suddenly United do have options. It is a much meatier bench than in recent weeks. Shesco has scored three in his last two games. On the eve of his 55th birthday, Pep Guardiola brings City to Old Trafford for the 10th time in the Premier League. For his goalkeeper, Donnarumma, September's derby was his Manchester City debut. Still no stones. Diaz, Guardiola, Mark Gahy is pending. But Kusanov and Alain have excelled. Rico Luis isn't right back in place of Mathias Nunes, who has flu. Rodri was managed through the week of cup ties and he starts now. And then it's the same front five as Tuesday night. Semenyu and Doku both flying. Silver, more derby wins than any other City player. Foden, seven Premier League derby goals. Haaland, eight of those. But no open play goal this side of Christmas. They had a long list of absentees. So on the bench, two keepers and three teenagers. Time for another new era then to get underway here at Old Trafford. There have been plenty in recent years, haven't there? Our match commentators this afternoon. Let's say good afternoon again to Gary Neville and to Peter Durie. Good afternoon, thank you. The never-changing red-blue fury of derby day. So much is timelessly familiar. Except that at Old Trafford today, of course, the scenery shifts again. Here comes yet another United reboot. And City, nearly ten years into their greatest era, rolls seamlessly on. And Manchester divides once again. So Michael Carrick becomes the sixth United boss with whom Pep has shared a pre-match derby handshake over the course of his mere decade in this city. Manchester derby, the 58th in the Premier League. Manchester United's player of the year. The last time they were champions. Another echo of another age. Another crack at getting it right. And once again, Anthony Taylor is the Mancunian neutral, just as he was on the other side of town in September. So United, another restart. And this is all they have now. They can be top four by... ...to make up four trophies to chase. And he has shown such poise since leaving a short notice from championship into Premier League. OK, left back, and here is Bernardo Silva. Beckham's flying right now. Casemiro comes to engage. Holds him up too. Announcements were an event today on both sides. How do you interpret those and how do you take them into the game? Yeah, I think the fact that Manchester United have got Harry Maguire back is a positive. Lacks a bit of experience and dominance at the back in the last time. Maguire and Martinez played together around 18 months ago, but they did keep four clean sheets in the last five matches starting together. So maybe Michael Cameron has looked at that ahead of today's match. And then, what a formidable player he is. Eight goals in six, in his last six games against Manchester United. ...who lost the left-hand quarterfinal against Morocco in Rabat last Friday. And returns to enable Michael Carrick actually to deal from a much stronger pack than Darren Fletcher had before him, or indeed Ruben Amo in the last two or three weeks of his reign. It looks like Manchester United are impressed from that side. Shaw from orthodox left-back with Dorgu up ahead of him and Bruno Fernandes playing. Bruno Fernandes, the cross! Just look at him at the back there and you're thinking, what a chance if the delivery's right. And it was! I can't miss that Harry Maguire. Roy Keane's just talked about the first goal and that should have been it.
