Manchester City 2-3 Manchester United: 5 Talking Points 

Manchester City v Manchester United - Premier League
The script was written for Pogba to steal City's thunder

#3 We'd like to file a missing person's report for a certain Alexis.. No wait. There he is!

That South American flair!

The Chilean has been similarly ridiculed recently for so many reasons in not-so-many matches that we'd all started buying into the theory that the former Arsenal saviour has lost his super-powers.

Three goals - all down to the brilliance of the South American. The first one to labour down the flank, changing directions with that trade-mark drop of the shoulder and then whipping in an accurate delivery which ended with the Frenchman pulling one back.

The second was even better! That ball he so often found Mesut Ozil and Olivier Giroud with, finally on display in the red for Manchester United. Pogba was the beneficiary once again.

Finally glimpses of what the master can do with his ability to affect the game when allowed to. United fans will be hoping this is just the start in a long and successful career as their beloved No. 7 for Alexis Sanchez.
