Manchester City have enjoyed a solid start to the campaign so far, while United have been way off the pace, seemingly taking a step back from last season. Erik ten Hag is under pressure after a heavy defeat to City last weekend, while his side also suffered a home defeat in the cup on Wednesday night.
City remain in the title conversation with plenty of time left to catch leaders Tottenham, and they will be expecting to maintain their crown. In stark contrast, Ten Hag must concentrate on keeping his job. In the meantime, we have rounded up the Premier League table without VAR to see where the two Manchester sides would rank without the technology, which is calculated by taking VAR decisions involved in game-deciding goals and going with the on-field decision.
