Due to the state of the pitch.

Surely now all this madness of travelling to the other side of the world to play exhibition matches has to stop. Both Manchester clubs have teams on their doorstep with excellent facilities and most importantly good pitches. Club's like Bury, Morecambe, Carlisle, Tranmere etc who really need the money.

We should look after our own instead of foreign investors who have ruined the game at the top level. What a waste of time their tour of China was. Jose Mourinho is furious.

It sums up the pampered nature of Premier League players. What's Luke Shaw fracturing his leg got to do with a bumpy pitch?

Shambles doesn't even begin to describe it.
