As one half of Manchester tears itself apart in the wake of Cristiano Ronaldo's scattergun attack on all things United, the other half will be sitting content that Ronaldo's criticisms are not aimed in their direction.
United are reeling - and are bracing themselves for more - from Ronaldo's interview with Piers Morgan, where the Portuguese superstar has criticised the club's owners, directors, managers, players and even the attitude of their academy players coming through.
Ronaldo claims he is speaking out from a place of love for the supporters, although the reaction hasn't been too welcoming from fans who are seeing shoots of recovery under Erik ten Hag that Ronaldo is now trampling over. City are not exempt from Ronaldo's comments as he opened up on the Blues' attempts to sign him last summer. 18 months on, they'll be delighted he didn't.
