/This.

We would be such a better team with a competent no.10.

I was just thinking the same thing. Would transform the team really.

 

[Nick7]

How was that a free kick but we didn’t get a penalty?

 

[Darkhorsez]

Mata cannot offer anything defensively or in terms of pressing. Lingard is a better option, though he’s been very poor last six months.

Yeah - at least Lingard offers more but he has been sucking recently.

 

[Inigo Montoya]

Andreas you dumb tit

He’s not a Utd player. 3 coaches could see it but Ole thinks he’s worthy of a start????

 

[midnightmare]

Pereira needs to be subbed at half time.

Who with? Mata is as slow and useless and doesn't press - and Lingard is...well, Lingard!

 

[Amarsdd]

Regarding the pen, not crystal clear but I have seen them given

VAR's decision "threshold" seems to change every week. It is a nailed on pen based on last week's decisions.

 

[KennyBurner]

I think we're the only team who doesnt know what to do on throw ins.

 

[Inigo Montoya]

Poor from Rashford

But the first touch was sublime

 

[2 man midfield]

When Rooney was Rashfords age his touch and turn was awesome.

As soon as he got injured and needed to play himself into form each time, it was like watching Lukaku playing with a rugby ball.

 

[JG3001]

Where in the rules does it say that a player who gets tripped/put off balance has to do everything in his power to salvage a shit chance? The onus is on the non ball-carrying player to not trip his opponent when he tries to win the ball.

I don’t think he was tripped though, it’s a coming together, which knocked him off balance. It’s a contact sport at the end of he day, so it’s open to interpretation.

I always try and look at penalty shouts from the other side, if it was against us would I be pissed off to see that awarded? Yes, I think I would be.

 

[redshaw]

Bournemouth player just dropping to the ground while be chased by James.

 

[Rooney1987]

We should just stop taking throw ins.

 

[R'hllor]

If Gomes isnt in a picture for what ever reason, out of other 3, AP is best option imo, not by billion miles but still. Mata plays like he is in Walking dead, Lingard, well he is special case.

 

[AFC NimbleThumb]

We have the perfect player for that, he's just injured at the moment. I still rather Andreas over Lingard and Mata. It's surely the role for Pogba when he returns, also takes away some of his defensive requirements.

Yep Pogba in there would be a world of improvement.

I’d take Andreas over Mata & Jesse too but the lack of quality in that position is stark.

Surely the 3 combined must be nearing £300k of mediocrity in one position.

 

[prateik]

Don't they have cameras in the VAR box? I want to see Mike Dean brandishing a yellow for Fred for no reason looking right at the camera.

 

[Wal2Fra]

Regarding the pen, not crystal clear but I have seen them given

At Anfield...

 

[2 man midfield]

He’s not a Utd player. 3 coaches could see it but Ole thinks he’s worthy of a start????

I’m really hoping he’s just there because he’s a body and we have no choice. I think he’ll be replaced at the earliest opportunity.

 

[kouroux]

VAR's decision "threshold" seems to change every week. It is a nailed on pen based on last week's decisions.

Yeah, it varies way too much. Some refs are waiting to see blood

 

[Inigo Montoya]

I think we're the only team who doesnt know what to do on throw ins.

No my son’s U 11 take poor throw ins as do all the teams in our league

 

[kouroux]

At Anfield...

Yes.

 

[ivaldo]

I think some of you are underestimating how shit the weather is and how poor the drainage is on this pitch.

 

[kouroux]

I’m really hoping he’s just there because he’s a body and we have no choice. I think he’ll be replaced at the earliest opportunity.

January hopefully

 

[JinnerJamie]

Normal service has resumed...

1-0 Bournemouth... King

 

[Irrational.]

Bournemouth are using every trick in the book to break the game down, slow down the play and interrupt our rhythm. Proper dickhead team.

 

[Drifter]

Yeah yeah yeah The weather.

 

[prateik]

Someone in the crowd has a whistle. I keep thinking the ref has blown for no reason.

 

[Mr Smith]

I was just thinking the same thing. Would transform the team really.

Imagine if we'd got Dybala!

I'm sorry.

 

[Judas]

Typical. Only ourselves to blame.

 

[Tom Van Persie]

Shite

 

[Irrational.]

And just like that, they're ahead.

 

[GifLord]

feck

 

[Djemba-Djemba]

Been shite all half

 

[peridigm]

What the feck are we doing?

 

[TsuWave]

 

[48 hours]

Shambolic defending in our own box

 

[Anustart89]

How is it possible to let a player do a fecking sombrero flick inside your own six yard box?

 

[prateik]

shocking defending.

 

[Freak]

Well well we’ll. We are back!

 

[Inigo Montoya]

I’m really hoping he’s just there because he’s a body and we have no choice. I think he’ll be replaced at the earliest opportunity.

If Lingard wasn’t even shittier, he’d play so yes it’s about just a body in there

 

[2 man midfield]

We’re going to need to break with convention and play well in the second half.

 

[KennyBurner]

what shit defending....you could see it from a mile away.
