Man Utd 1999 v Man City 2019 – comparing two of the great sides

EPL: Manchester United vs Manchester City, Wednesday, 24 April

Manchester United are arguably the biggest obstacle standing between Manchester City and a domestic treble of Premier League, FA Cup and League Cup.


United, of course, are the only English team to have won what we have come to think of as the ultimate Treble - Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League.

Victory at Old Trafford on Wednesday would take Pep Guardiola's side a huge step towards their own unique feat, a trio of trophies no English team has won before in the same season.

So as the two Manchester clubs go head to head in a game of such magnitude, it seems like the perfect time to compare United 1999 and City 2019, and consider which players might make it into a combined XI.
