A week on and they were still at it, still singing about how Old Trafford is not structurally sound. It might well end up being the soundtrack to Manchester City’s season, that song. There were occasions when it filled all four sides of the Etihad Stadium on Saturday.
Of course, those lyrics would not have been dreamt up had their old rivals not been floundering quite so badly. City wouldn’t chant about a leaky roof if Manchester United regularly won matches.
It could be heard shortly before Jeremy Doku opened Bournemouth up for the first time and further brought to mind an ever-growing chasm between the two clubs in this part of the world.
