Did anyone else watch it and think Cardiff could beat Manure and put us up a creek with no boat let alone a paddle..

Not really, just thought Man City look a really decent side. Much better than Cardiff

Last night ? Far more concerning was watching Man U get ripped apart by Everton, not champions-elect Man City. Was worried way before last night's game. We have to be 3 points ahead of Cardiff before the Man City game otherwise I think we're fooked.

By the same token though, maybe we can get a result at Arsenal?
If Cardiff suddenly turned into Man City then I would be very fearful of them turning United over, you're absolutely right.

I'm more worried about how Solskjaer would feel about relegating his old club, if there is nothing in the game for Utd.
Very much this. I still maintain that if we match Cardiff's result this Saturday, that will probably be enough.
Not an issue. He'll take any win he can get at the moment and will want to finish the season in some kind of style...
Didn't he fall out with Tan?
Definitely not out of the question as their defence is ropey af.

no love lost between the fans and him, he might also be trying to keep his job now the extended honeymoon period has gone

I was reminded of 2007 when a woeful West Ham went to Man United needing a result to stay up in the last game and amazingly beat them 1-0. Man Utd didn't turn up that day. It sent Sheffiled United down on 38 points. Could happen again.

You're probably right.
Not sure how he left things at Cardiff.
The couple of fans I chatted to after the Cardiff game blamed him for saddling them with a load of overpaid wasters.
I think there is 0% chance of that being an influence If I were Solskjaer I'd be worrying about my own job given the wheels have come off since his permanent appointment. I'd want to sign off with a good win.

Kept thinking they basically gave Citeh the title to stop Liverpool and not really much effect on us. Cardiff have a chance in all their games (which are much easier than ours) but we have a chance too.
