Tactical Analysis: Manchester City 2-0 Manchester United

In their final match before the November international break, Manchester City thrashed Manchester United 2-0 via an early own goal from Eric Bailly and a goal from Bernardo Silva on the cusp of halftime. It was a scoreline that simply did not tell the full extent of City's dominance, and a performance that leaves Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's job security in jeopardy after yet another humbling defeat following their 0-5 loss to Liverpool.

Whereas Pep Guardiola opted for his traditional 4-3-3 with Gabriel Jesus partnering Kevin de Bruyne and Phil Foden in attack, Solskjaer elected to switch to a 3-4-1-2 with Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Luke Shaw playing as wingbacks and Cristiano Ronaldo and Mason Greenwood playing off of Bruno Fernandes in the front three.
