    My head hurts :lol:

    Stresses of the final moments. Overall I think we played well.

    But loved the fight to see the game out.
     
    What I liked most today other than the result was that we really looked like a team. Crisp and quick passing, good connection between the different parts, pretty much everyone involved in a positive way. The D was good, Pogba dominant and cumulatively Bruno as well, as usual. And perhaps Martial is now finally underway - that was a true strikers goal, very similar to the one Vardy scored against us.
     
    Did Maguire handball it initally?

    Amazed there hasn't been a closer look via replay or VAR.

    Me too, was really surprised but I think if you look very closely, Maguire headed it against their striker and it dropped straight down. Maguire's arm was high but don't think it actually touched the ball.
     
    Yea, I miss the days under Fergie where every game was perfect a performance...

    You are looking for negatives to suit your agenda.

    What agenda? I don't think am asking for much when I say we need to put away guilt edge chances.

    I would hope that was the case, but can't tell unless there is closer footage.

    I was thinking all about the Brighton game where we won a penalty after the final whistle.

    The game is over thankfully, but I can't help but think that there was a clear penalty by the laws of the game today which was randomly overlooked.
     
    Must admit my heart was in my mouth but looking at that, I don’t think it touches his arm/hand

    Have been pretty critical of him but superb goal from Martial. Also kept them occupied up top. Also, Shaw. Excellent showing.

    wouldnt it be awesome if he and Bailly hit form?
