Banning for league game because of red in friendly, that is a thing? If it is it's idiotic.
Manchester United 0:1 Atletico Madrid (Sat 30th July, 12:45 UK time)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
But it's pre season and we've actually played well. No need to tear your hair out over this game.
I fecking called it 
Fred sent off. Probably our best player today but he's so unreliable. Shows some great things as well as some terrible things almost every game.
Feel for Pellistri
Good job second yellow
This will be my worry against teams with quality up top and at the back, we don’t look much of a threat against a strong team. If Ronaldo goes, I see us offering very little threat as we have no one you’d think will get that one goal from just one chance or make something out of nothing.
Hopefully we rectify that in the remainder of window. Our two toughest games we don’t win one. Yes only pre season but let’s see how we get on in the next few weeks.

ETH has no right to be angry. These are his chosen players.
Funniest thing I've ever said tbh.
Any team built around Fred will be
There's no such thing as a friendly against this lot. Someone two foot one of their players
Red card is three PL match ban.
How foolish is Fred? No matter how well he does, a bad Fred moment is never too far away.
Jesus Christ Fred … Absolutely shocking.
Fred got red in friendly…
I remember Scholesey getting banned because he got a red in a friendly. Is that honestly still the case?
Noice.
It is pre-season. Even if we win 4-0 it does not mean we will be excellent against Brighton. It just means that our match fitness is quite good.
We are much better than last year, but we need some more business in the window.
We need a RW. No Sancho and we look putrid.

I mean yeah that's a red
Jesus they arent remotely comparable. Fred just did a sissor kick stamp ffs
Him and Scholes missed 3 games. Fred won't, though.
Was their best player last year. Scored 10 goals.
Thank heavens for an actual television.
Top player. Would love him at OT.
Absolutely clueless
Why so? They have had the same manager for over 10 years and just hired out manager who hasn’t even played a competitive game yet. Relax
We actually had Scholes banned for like 3 games after receiving a redcard in a pre season match.
Have they been that good though?
That's really dirty by Fred. If he meant to do that, that's shocking.
It truly doesn't matter how good ten hag is at coaching or how much effort he gets from these players. The squad as it is is just not good enough. It really is that simple
Poor Pellistri
I hope not, but I have had it with this generation of Brazilian footballers in whom brains are nowhere to be found too often.
No it doesn't carry into competitive matches.
It's not up to the FA is it? I think the referee has to report it as violent conduct which normally results in a straight red.
I don't think there can be further punishment for two yellows.
Fred sent off
Yeah that's it. Hopefully he gets plenty of chances this season.
It’ll look cool sitting on the bench.
Wasn't Scholes sent off in the same game? If I remember correctly they were suspended for the first game of the season.
Why the laughter? His long balls never hits a teammate behind the oppo's defence and his low balls to the fullbacks are so damn easily readable.
You disagree that losing in our last friendly isn't ideal?
