Noel Gallagher clearly doesn't think much of Manchester United heading into the weekend's derby.

The ex-Oasis star will be on punditry duty for Sky Sports as his beloved Manchester City take on their rivals at Old Trafford on Sunday, and when he was asked by the Premier League which United players he'd like to see in City colours he put his tongue firmly in his cheek and said he'd only take two.

And even they would only be on the bench, with the rest "of that mob" left "making the tea".

"I'd take [Marcus] Rashford," said the rock legend, now of Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds .

"I'd have Rashford on the bench and I'd have [David] De Gea on the bench.

"Rashford, though, he's dangerous. I like him.

"And the 'keeper has pretty much kept United in the league the last three or four years.

"But other than that they're all making the tea, that mob."

Get the kettle on, Romelu.
