.jbsoutar's Man City - Man Utd combined XI does not include Casemiro or Bernardo Silva...
It is still hard to believe this season’s FA Cup final is the first between Manchester City and Manchester United. It would be rude not to make a combined XI of the two teams, wouldn’t it?Ederson is much better than David De Gea. It really is as simple as that. He is more reliable, a better shot-stopper, has better handling, commands his box better, and is in a completely different universe when it comes to playing out from the back. Next.
This man will lift one half of the trophy with Harry Maguire if United win, with the England defender expected to go full John Terry if he does not play. Casemiro could have made the team as another defensive midfielder, but Fernandes has been brilliant this season. In fact, he has had a pretty underrated campaign to an extent.As far as no-brainers go, this is right up there as one that requires a brain the least.Leaving Rashford out of this team felt very harsh, so a swift position change has been made. It was almighty close between Haaland and Wout Weghorst. The City striker just made it in after scoring 50 more goals this season.
On a side note, Haaland scored three and assisted two in a single match against United this season, which was the best individual performance of 22/23.Super Jacky Grealish has finally adapted to Pep Guardiola’s system after some teething issues in his debut season, which is to be expected when you join City, but not when you cost £100,000,000.
Grealish’s inclusion is the reason Rashford has been flung over to the right, which is a testament to how impressive he has been in 22/23. Having scored five goals in 48 matches this season, it is fair to say that the England winger’s game goes a lot further than statistics.
