Man Utd 0-0 Man City: 5 things learned

Another performance to build upon

It wasn't the most amazing of derbies. It was pretty drab but that isn't always a bad thing especially when looking at United this season. I'd rather have had a few drab 0-0s than some of the matches we've seen.

Not the worst from United, but not the best either

Indeed, we actually saw a decent all round game from Amorim's team despite the defeat. There was progress in some aspects of the game that he can take away as positives yet some old habits returned.
