I don't care how much people rave about Man City and Guardiola - Man Utd in their heydays were simply unplayable. Fast, direct and absolutely clinical. Utd played the best football ever in my opinion.

A young Paul Scholes played along side Cantona, Kanchelkis, Hughes, Bruce, Pallister, Schmachiel, Ince, Irwin.

90s football was a whole other animal

When football was all about playing for the badge and not money

Forget the football, the crowd was different back then. I wish we had that now.

Thats the City I remember growing up, consistently poor.

back when Manchester united was the Manchester united of the premier league🤤

Oh Cantona - just sheer class

manchester united are one of the greatest teams in the world.

The pace off the game these days is pedestrian compared to this. The highlights is enough for me now! 😵

We had Kanchelskis owning the right wing then. Now we have Antony etc 😥

I was at this match. Stayed in in a horrible B&B in Stretford that night. What a night. Amazing atmosphere

I went to this game, happy days!

Sparky is a brutal warrior!

Better refs , better crowds an no bloody VAR , plus players who could take a tackle

kanchelskis was fire and so underrated!!

The warm, fuzzy, comforting days when City were crap.

What a performance from a real club who are global and have reached every corner of the globe many moons ago and are still.as relevant now we will.soon rise to the top again.

Can only live in the past if you actually have one.

I can't place how old I was when the question of what team I supported was posed (by a fellow school chum). My dad was still actively playing at the time and I was keenly aware of the pageantry of the FA Cup final and how it was the only live televised match. I replied Manchester United without hesitancy but in reality I had no clue why. In 1965 Man U would win the league. In 66 they would destroy Benfica before falling short in Belgrade (of all places) in the European Cup, then win the league again in 67. In April of 68 my family emigrated to California. The first leg of Euro Cup semi against Real Madrid had been played but once in California, football as I knew it, ceased to exist. From family correspondence I eventually learned, via a snippet of a sentence, that Man U had won the 68 Euro Cup final but it would be the early 1990's before the Los Angeles Times started providing the scores of the English first division from Saturday followed (with the launch of the Premier League) by a sports oriented cableTV channel that primarily existed to air the home games of the LA Lakers basketball that somewhat randomly (you couldn't assume a particular day or time) inserted the hour long Sky Sports Premier league highlights show as filler. Finally a glimpse of real football. The last time I'd watched United they were on top and after 25 years here they were still on top. Kanchelskis impressed me to no end, as did Schmeichal. Then we moved from Los Angeles to San Diego and another (albeit brief) period of being in the dark. Finally a San Diego channel picked up the Premier League show. Where's Kanchelskis? Then I see him playing at Everton and question what idiot let him leave. The rest is history.

I remember seeing all of City's 5 fans skriking on Whitworth St in town after this match.

The topsy turvy world of football How the times have changed 😊

First goal was SICK!!. U don't get many players these days that can control the ball like that. This era had the most talented footballers.

King Eric at his best 😅

Remember this game well. Sat with big headphones on listening to 5Live I think it was. 😅

Skill and sense ❤

One of the most one sided Manchester derby at that time

Forever, King Eric

Thanks for uploading this.

Always remember this match being on a Thursday night

แมนเชสเตอร์ยูไนเต็ด❤❤

I always think of this team as 'swashbuckling'. The were such fun to watch with Kanchelskis & Giggs haring down the wings and explosive Hughes & the ringmaster Cantona... Dennis Irwin no slouch, nor the other defenders. Hard not to mention all the team really. They had a naivety about them in a way as they always seemed to just want to attack. ... In some ways, my favourite of the successful teams, even if they were just the dawn and for a short period... 95 sees a lot of changes and as SAF started to be more canny in Europe, how they played changed. The Age of Innocence was over (even if it was the kids that brought it to an end).

Rood to glory ❤times

great pace of games from both team!!

Oh how times have changed.

Brilliant

thing about eric was you could pass at him any type of cross good or bad , he would bring it down and move it on !!

wow, what an atmosphere, like a Champions league match...

Kalchenski was the engineer.

That's football!!!

That's a straight red for Sparky in 2024

♥️👍♥️👍♥️👍

AJ all d way.....straight from naija

Like reading a library book. Wonder if United will ever have a team like this again?

Living in the past…..10 years and counting

oh man look at that play from midfield start from @18:05 .... I remember this manutd

going from this to the sorry mess we have now

This won’t happen again for at least 50 years so basically we have to watch archive footage to see Manchester United play proper football

Can’t help but think Andre wasn’t utilised to his full value at the club.

B4 the Dirty money arrived...115 charges later they land a Treble

Proper football

City msh jadi "tetangga yg berisik " 😊

What team mu was then

I want the link to the main channel

I watched this game in my local with ex Man Utd player,Colin Webster

The forgotten Mam U. Living is the past.

Did Roy Keane actually kiss Kanchelskis there? He kept that quiet...

First Thursday night match in the premier league, second on also a Thursday sept 1998, Liverpool at OT. home win two nil😂😂😂😂

You still live in the past but at the moment that’s all you’ve got, but Man City is the future and that’s what matters 🏆🏆🏆

If any spanish player had that chance which Roy did the spanish one would score a goal. At that time and for long time after british players didn`t have a knowlege I`d say.

Sorry city fans! Im enjoying this !

สวัสดี

I don't think Messi could have dribbled to these physical games. He probably could have ankle injuries every 3 months like Giggs.

breagrie turned keane inside out

Well I suppose memories are all they have left.

Hungry Wolf

8:51 Roy Keane would have finished the guy

Before they bought a team

Great to see this again Pre-oil money, City were relentlessly shite Kanchelskis 100000 times better than Anthony There would have been 25 bookings now Cantona was majestic

Pre 115

How can a 5-0 thrashing be a classic match.. 😂. It's so demeaning..

Panathinaikos Ateny ipswich Town rywale los losowanie polskie zespoły puchary cześć !

Why OJ Simpson played for United?

The commentator’s are being a little xenophobic by repeatedly referring to “Foreigners” in the United team.

This Manu channel is trying to be relevant

1994! Man, this is clutching at straws

And to think, the shite that wears that shirt nowadays 😢

Funny how the Berties forget all this all copying fakers

Not doing so well these days huh?

How would a team win by 5 nil be a classic match?, 😀

FA cup this not premier league.

M U. in the past was VERY TERRIBLE.... to this day....THE HORROR IS STILL VERY TERRIBLE.
