Lewis Dunk is running out of time, Jakub Kiwior rises to the challenge for Arsenal and Liam Delap has an audition

Manchester City’s tame outing at Manchester United on Sunday showed how they have flatlined this term, the goalless draw also damaging their prospects of Champions League qualification – after beating Leicester the following night, Newcastle vaulted them and went into fifth place. Without Erling Haaland, unavailable until mid-May at the earliest, City were toothless at Old Trafford, and with Crystal Palace arriving at the Etihad on a run of six wins in seven matches – the other was a draw – it is time for Pep Guardiola to earn his salary by ensuring his side are far better, or Europa League football may be on the cards next season.

• Goalkeeper at fault for both goals in quarter-final first leg
• Manchester United coach: ‘It can happen with any player’

Ruben Amorim said he is “really confident” in André Onana despite Manchester United’s No 1 making errors that handed Lyon both their goals in the first leg of Thursday’s Europa League quarter-final.

Onana’s first mistake allowed Thiago Almada’s 25th-minute free-kick to bounce in. The second, in the last moments of added time, featured a weak push straight to Rayan Cherki, who equalised. At that point, United were leading through Joshua Zirkzee’s 87th-minute header, which followed Leny Yoro’s equaliser.

In a scarcely credible tale of hubris André Onana was Manchester ­United’s culprit, committing two howlers that cast the goalkeeper as a mug and Nemanja Matic as a seer.

In the buildup to this match, Matic branded Onana one of United’s ­poorest-ever keepers when responding to the 29-year-old’s claim that United were better than Lyon. The tit-for-tat closed with Onana’s dig that he had won trophies at United – unlike Matic in his five years at the club – before a nightmarish evening ended with another error, this time for the hosts’ equaliser.

It sounds like a number of Man Utd supporters are struggling to make it to the ground in time for kick-off. I’m sure we’ll hear more about that after the game.

Lyon will be missing their young wingers Ernest Nuamah and Malick Fofana when they host Manchester United on Thursday, which is a huge blow given their penchant for attacking down the flanks. The good news for Paulo Fonseca is that he will be able to call upon Rayan Cherki and Thiago Almada to carry out the attacking duties either side of Corentin Tolisso, with Georges Mikautadze leading the line.

• He feels soul has been lost and criticises stadium plan
• Former striker says club rejected his offer of help

Eric Cantona has accused Sir Jim Ratcliffe of trying to “destroy” Manchester United and said the minority owner rejected his offer to help rebuild the club.

Cantona is considered one of United’s greatest footballers after playing for them for five years until summer 1997. On Saturday Cantona was at FC United of Manchester, which was founded by disaffected Manchester United fans in May 2005 in protest at Malcolm Glazer’s leveraged purchase of United, which loaded about £500m of debt on the club.

Lyon’s manager reflects on his nine-month domestic ban for confronting a referee and his Europa League hopes against Manchester United

“This kind of motivation can make miracles,” says Paulo Fonseca as he describes the glint in his Lyon players’ eyes before the visit of Manchester United. It is a clash of two giants who have lost their way – although something, at least, is stirring in France’s second city. They have won eight of their 11 games since Fonseca’s arrival less than two and a half months ago and that tells only part of a story with little precedent.

The Europa League quarter‑final first leg on Thursday will be a rare opportunity for Fonseca to do what he enjoys best: manage his team from the technical area, cajoling and tweaking from the sidelines. Early in March he was given a nine-month ban from domestic games for aggressively confronting the referee Benoît Millot towards the end of a win against Brest. He is barred from the dugout and from communicating with his bench until 30 November, but will be allowed access to the dressing rooms and tunnel area from 15 September. Recent Ligue 1 matches have been taken in from the press box. Uefa-run fixtures offer relief and he is still getting his head around a suspension with a duration which could have jeopardised his career.

The lowdown on Lyon v Manchester United, Tottenham v Frankfurt, Rangers v Athletic and Bodø/Glimt v Lazio

By WhoScored

Paulo Fonseca’s touchline ban is not holding Lyon back in their pursuit to finish the season as the best of the rest in Ligue 1. PSG wrapped up the title at the weekend but the other Champions League spots are very much up for grabs. Lyon returned to winning ways by beating Lille 2-1 at the weekend to make it six wins from their last seven. The team have won eight of their 11 matches since Fonseca arrived in January, which has taken them to within striking distance of second-placed Marseille. The 52-year-old pledged to bring attacking football back to Lyon and he is living up to his word.

• Onana said Manchester United were ‘way better’ side
• Keeper bites back that Matic won nothing with United

Nemanja Matic has described André Onana as one of the worst goal­keepers in Manchester United’s history after the Cameroonian claimed his team were far better than Lyon.

In an escalating row before the players face off in the Europa League quarter-final ­opening leg at Lyon on Thursday, Onana responded by pointing out that Matic had won ­nothing as a United player from 2017 to 2022.

• Clause falls to £30m if Ipswich relegated from top flight
• Manchester City have 20% sell-on clause for striker

Chelsea and Manchester United are in a tussle for Liam Delap, whose release clause falls to £30m, it can be revealed, in the event of Ipswich being relegated from the Premier League.

Delap has enjoyed a breakout campaign since leaving Manchester City, scoring 12 goals in 33 appearances, and clubs tracking the striker’s progress will not have to pay a huge fee to sign him this summer. It is understood that suitors who looked at buying Delap from City last year were informed of the need to meet specific financial and contractual conditions during talks over a deal. Interested parties were told they would have to come to the table and wait for the player to decide on his destination.

• Charge refers to alleged incident after Manchester derby
• Man to appear at the city’s magistrates court on 14 July

A man has been charged with assault for allegedly slapping Jack Grealish at Old Trafford at the end of the goalless derby between Manchester United and Manchester City on Sunday.

Grealish, who entered as a 74th-minute replacement, is thought to have been near the tunnel at the Stretford End when the man is alleged to have struck the City forward.

­Manchester United fans chanted abuse at Manchester City’s Phil Foden about his mother during Sunday’s goalless derby. City manager Pep Guardiola said the move 'lacked class' and added: 'I don’t understand the mind of the ­people ­involving the mum of Phil, it’s a lack of integrity, class, and they should be ashamed.' It is understood that City were shocked and disgusted by the chants and the number of people involved. United’s stance is that they condemn all abusive chants aimed towards players

• ‘Lack of class’: Guardiola hits out at United fans’ chant about Foden’s mother

• Goalkeeper says he takes his time to help teammates
• ‘I have to let my guys breathe. They need me to do that’

André Onana has shrugged off criticism from Manchester United fans over his slow distribution by stating he takes that approach to assist his teammates.

The goalkeeper has been the subject of supporter discontent for sometimes lingering over the ball rather than executing a quick pass but said: “It doesn’t affect me because the decision I make is to help the team. Sometimes I will make the right decision, sometimes I will make the wrong decision. When I feel my players need to rest I have to take my time; when I feel we need to speed up the game I will do it.”

A £10 cash payment to fake parking stewards led to a real £170 penalty charge notice for one fan

I received a £170 penalty charge notice (PCN) after being scammed by fake parking stewards while attending a football match at Old Trafford. This must be affecting unsuspecting fans at every match.

I had been directed to park on a nearby street by men wearing hi-vis jackets with “official match day parking” written on them. They demanded a £10 parking fee in cash. I later discovered they were rogue operators and that they had tricked me into parking on private land.

United and City play out a deeply forgettable Manchester derby and Unai Emery gets his Aston Villa team right

• Premier League top scorers: the latest standings

This was a deeply forgettable derby, but it was Manchester United who looked the more likely to get a winner as time ticked down. Ruben Amorim spoke afterwards of using pace in transitions to try to carve out chances – and with a little more composure in the penalty area, it might have worked. Bruno Fernandes was the game’s standout player but Patrick Dorgu also caught the eye in just his fifth Premier League start. Signed from Lecce in January, the Danish wing-back is the first player Amorim has brought in that fits his system. Freed up by City’s narrow formation, Dorgu was able to get forward and test City’s backline at will. The 20-year-old’s red card at Ipswich sparked fears that, like some other young United recruits, he was too raw for regular Premier League football. Sunday’s performance should ensure he holds down the left-sided spot in Amorim’s 3-4-3 setup for the rest of this season, even with Luke Shaw nearing a return to fitness. Niall McVeigh

Manager doesn’t just need better players, he needs his bosses to respect Old Trafford’s passionate loyalists

People travelled for that. People got on planes, decanted liquids into 100ml bottles, queued at passport control, booked taxis and hotels, set the alarm for 4.30am, counted down the days, for that. People braved Northern trains and Avanti West Coast, negotiated the closure of the M67, for that.

And so the first thing you really have to say is: fair play, those people. It was Ed Woodward seven years ago who most strongly articulated the vision of the modern Manchester United, a world in which “playing performance doesn’t really have a meaningful impact on what we can do on the commercial side”.

• Supporters involved in derby abuse ‘should be ashamed’
• Amorim admits his United side ‘are suffering a lot’

Pep Guardiola stated that the Manchester United fans who chanted abuse at Manchester City’s Phil Foden about his mother during Sunday’s goalless derby lacked “class”.

The invective was directed at the winger during the first half when City attacked the Stretford End at Old Trafford. Guardiola was asked about the chant.

The points were shared in a turgid game which showed how much work both teams must do to challenge at the top again

Fun fact: at least one Manchester club has finished in the top three in every Premier League season but one – 2015-16, when Leicester, Arsenal and Tottenham were on the podium. City have work to do to keep that record alive this season.

Here’s Pep Guardiola on Kevin De Bruyne: “Of course there’s emotion, one decade here, but I’m pretty sure he’ll be focused on what he needs to do.” On Omar Marmoush: “He has done well, his numbers, movement off the ball and getting in behind.” And on Nico O’Reilly: “Nico is young, he has to improve but he has great physicality and is strong at set pieces.”

Blunt and tame, the 196th Manchester derby was a curio that failed to ignite despite the cross-town rivalry, conjuring memories of the last goalless affair of this sort here, in December 2020, before an empty Old Trafford, owing to Covid.

This edition can be rated slightly better yet, towards the close of play, when the substitute Joshua Zirkzee swung a boot at Patrick Dorgu’s cross and connected cleanly, the crowd perhaps sensed Ederson would save because a stalemate seemed so inevitable.

• Limited budget expected to bolster squad this summer
• ‘Trying to see gaps we have in our squad’

Manchester United will ­prioritise signings for Ruben Amorim’s system this summer rather than big names, the head coach has revealed.

United have little left to play for in the Premier League but host Manchester City on Sunday seeking to complete a double over their city rivals for the first time in five years. The manager who oversaw that success, in the 2019-20 season, Ole Gunnar Solskjær, sought a cultural reset when taking over at Old Trafford, but his reign ended in October 2021 after a number of marquee transfers, including Cristiano Ronaldo and Jadon Sancho, misfired.

Against a backdrop of internal strife, facing their sky blue rivals provides a struggling team with chance to rebuild the brand

This brave overhanging firmament, this majestical roof fretted with golden fire, this collection of generic spires with a massive plastic handkerchief chucked over the top. Three weeks on from first sight of the conceptual drawings for Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s stately pleasure dome, also known as the proposed Manchester United Stadium Soccer Product Hub, there is still a sense of double-take about the whole thing.

Early impressions of the new ground ranged from a defunct Venusian mercury mine, to Dubai Butlin’s, to a pointed corporate monument to our divided world. Welcome to the Staff Lunch Arena, embodiment of the 21st-century conviction that if you just stopped buying so many sandwiches and also fired the tea lady you could probably afford a vast and unattainable house.
