Manchester City fans have taken to Twitter to react after it was announced that their bitter rivals Manchester United have sacked faltering boss Jose Mourinho, with a caretaker manager set to see out the current campaign.

The Citizens are currently light years ahead of their fellow side from Manchester, a feat which they are enjoying having spent years in their shadow when Sir Alex Ferguson was in charge.
