I'm glad that City got another slap in the face, it's especially nice in the derby. It seems to me that this defeat can be easily explained by the fact that the City players very much celebrated the victory in the Premier League (there are many photo evidence of this) and were out of shape because of this, plus there was an obvious underestimation of the opponent.
But I don't want to discount United's achievement and in the end the discipline problems are City's problems, they are to blame.

Let me say that City was very pleased with their fourth consecutive victory as champions in EPL, and they never wanted the FA cup which is too small for them. This was why they had to forget themselves in too much celebration and jubilation of their victory forgetting that they have a final match to play with Manchester united.

I think that Manchester City players believe that there is nothing United can play to win the finals as they are they best and they forget that football is not something that we win with conclusions without displaying what you gat on the field. It is good that United won the finals so that it will not be as if all trophies in England are made for City.

Is this copium?
No club that claims to be serious/respectable can afford to lose in the final of any tournament (plus to a historical opponent) without consequences and “simply because we don’t really need to win.”
In fact, this is a failure, because what does City have left after a season where they dreamed of repeating the treble? Defeat from Arsenal in the Super Cup, from Newcastle in the League Cup, from United in the FA Cup + another fall to the ground from Real Madrid in the Champions League Roll Eyes

So what's left? 4th Premier League title in a row and 6th in 7 seasons? Farming titles don't impress anyone.
