Liverpool legend Alan Hansen has questioned the attitude of Manchester City players.
Hansen wrote in the Telegraph: "I do not see the same spirit and togetherness in the City squad as United. If United gave a first half performance like we had seen from City at St Mary's, we would have seen Ferguson on the pitch yelling at his players.
"However flawed City's current squad is, a 12-point gap would have been inconceivable at the start of the season but it is a fair reflection of the difference in quality and, perhaps most telling, on-pitch attitude."
