Shit house of a performance, need a miracle against Leicester because we look shit and ain't winning this one.
where are all the MEN goneTime for the men to stand up and be counted!
It's west ham ffs show some fight speed up the play far too slow
They're letting Williams and TFM have space, while clogging up the space where our attackers are present. That's why Matic, Pogba, and Bruno are having trouble creating chances or even passing any meaningful passes towards them.Our front 4 haven't really functioned so far, we'd have scored once, or twice, a few weeks ago.
I’m not confident either really, not with the way we’re playing anyway.This. Show us what you're made of boys. Not confident though
That is a valid discussion to have, it's not talked nearly about as much as sports like American Football, but there is a big concussion issue in football as well, but as you mentioned any changes in the laws of the game to protect the head of a player in such a situation will be rife with abuse.
While playing for Manchester United, fighting for top 4. Certain people with thick skulls can’t grasp this simple concept. Thankfully you do.I’d gladly take it if I was earning 300K a week
No, you definitely just said that you'd happily miss out on top 4 to see him fired. Try and explain it away however much you want, that's what you said.No, because i know that he is staying no matter what. And we will win this but not by 3 goals i guess. I was talking about hypothetical situation. Blessing in disguise and shit like that.
Exactly. Its a brain fart but I understand protecting your head.Let’s be honest you can’t blame pogba for his reaction but he should have ducked rather than put his arms up.
instinct is instinct though.
anyway if we can’t score 2 against West Ham then what’s the point?

Okay so...let's watch players take that to the face and then start suffering from concussion problems
Players head balls or at least turn round all the time - the ball was 15 yards out: that's just unprofessional. If you're going to defend yourself with your hands when the ball is coming at you, what on earth are you doing in the wall?
It's not explicitly written in the laws either way, it's up to the referee's interpretation. There's been guidance in the past that protection is OK. I'd expect the ref to prioritise an obvious player safety issue over a ball that's sailing towards the corner flag, for example.“Content” is not what’s relevant. What’s relevant is whether a player deliberately uses his hands to impede the flight of the ball.
There’s no except in the Laws that I’m aware of for a ball screaming at 200mph at your head.
We could adopt a change to the Laws, but imagine the abuse this exception would create.
Absolutely. No other way to defend every time we've dropped points when we had chance to go upMy point is if it’s must win we won’t win because rhis team lacks bottle. If it was a nothing game we’d win 3-0.
Everything. Literally anything. Him accusing Pogba of trying to pretend he has a bleeding nose, him suggesting West Ham have been the better side when they created one chance and hardly made DDG work. Pick whichever.what's so over the top?
Good luck. It was hit with force from 15 yards away. Reactions of a cat?

why would you want Lingard on.If I was ole I would send Pogba out with a helmet
This is one of the most blatant penalties of the season surely no one is saying it is! HahaThe rules are getting out of hand, I mean if the ball touches your hand no matter what it’s a pen. Simply absurd way of ruling such an important decision in football.
Luckily, a draw and a win now means the same thing regarding our game vs Leicester. (We're not scoring 4 here)
He can try look away or even fecking duck but he puts his hands upIf someone offered me £300K to take a ball to the face, I'd probably go for it, but that's not what's happening here, is it?
Bit strong don't ya think?I hate this team
