Manchester United might be the final hope of stopping Man City when the two teams go head on this Wednesday in the Manchester Derby.
Solsksjaer’s men are the final top-six side that City will face in the Premier League and many Liverpool fans are banking on the Red Devils to do them a favour.
But it looks like Jurgen Klopp believes Man United will not be able to stop Pep Guardiola’s men and the German had a rather cheeky way of saying it.
“It [the derby] is not something we can influence, and it does not look like United are in a place to, either,” Klopp told Sky Sports(as reported).
“What was the [United] score today? 3-0, 4-0, to Everton?”
“It [the derby] is a normal game, a game they [City] have to play.
“We had to play that game as well and Man United was in that moment obviously in a much better moment when we played them, so it was a 0-0. So, on a good day maybe, it [the derby] is a draw.
“We’ll see what comes out on Wednesday, we have no influence on that, but we still have to play games after that.
“So, if United get a point or whatever and we win [against] Huddersfield Town, go to Newcastle United after Barcelona and think we have it halfway or whatever, then we will get a knock there.
“It’s all difficult, we just have to stay focused on our things – that’s what worked really well so far and I don’t see any reason why we should change.”
Man United lost 4-0 to Everton and to be honest, no one really expects this team to give a tough fight to City in the Manchester Derby at Old Trafford.
