In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran are here to talk about a frustrating 2 points dropped at Crystal Palace. They then discuss the regeneration of Old Trafford. Finally, Nik is joined by special guest Michael Statham from the Football Oranje podcast - who gives us a more in depth look at our EL opposition FC Twente, and then runs through the (many) Dutch connections currently at United.
Not sure people here know what Trossard was sent off for. It was for bulldozing Silva over, nothing to with the kick after. He was already on a yellow.
It's silly from Trossard but the bar for getting sent off is too low these days. Would a talking to there really be the end of the world?
I hate BOTH of these teams but Oliver is such a corrupt p.o.s. he should be investigated. Citehs buying off refs is so blatant. I guess it's irrelevant because eufa, fifa and the FA profit so much from it, they will never do anything about it. Rules and laws are only as effective as those who have the power and duty to enforce them.
Either would do it.
The burning, paper thin house of cards that is Oliver’s ref career is imploding before our eyes
The whistle goes literally half a second before he kicks it, the whistle is literally still in the referees mouth when he kicks it away.
Especially at the end of extra time when it could quite easily be the half time whistle, it’s very harsh.
Come on. Don't act like you haven't been helped out with your goals today.
It was over a minute beyond the six added.
What is Troussard thinking? There's still over a half hour before NFL games start, no need to run full speed right through someone.
As Utd fans, many of us love to act like victims of referees but Arsenal have been shafted in this game and in the one where Rice was sent off.
Bottom line is that the PL referees are pure garbage and they shaft a lot of teams

Bullshit again. Already have to go up against a team that don’t play by the rules. Honestly, football is lost. They are making it unwatchable with the way they have failed to police their own league or the officiating.
Love to see City losing. Hate to see Arsenal winning. I'm just here for the feckery now
Haaland had eyes on the ball and was challenging for it, Trossard was just trying to hit the man?
I think it will take time for players to reprogram themselves kicking the ball away. They are taking it a lot more seriously now.
However for high intensity, big games like this, I think some leeway should be involved. The games too soft and there is a foul every 5 seconds now. It feels like watching the NFL not the PL. Soon they’ll implement adverts in between these fouls on TV.

Obvious yellow ….even more stupid to cry about it
Oliver is a gowl, but Trossard and Arsenal can have no complaints. Deserved sending off.
The yellow wasn't for kicking the ball away. It was for excessive force in the challenge supposedly.
Arsenal fanbases new excuse for not winning the title again this year is pretending this and the Rice red card were unjustified rather than criticising their own. **** mentality.
Well it’s over when Oliver says so?
Why make silly challenges, kick the ball away? After all the publicity of Rice/others… no matter how petty a rule it is, surely he has to think smarter.
(Edit, may have been the challenge. Same issue.. play smart, you’re 2-1 up close to HT)
Foul was risky enough. Just have Oliver a reason to send him off then.
It was idiotic. The foul beforehand could have been a yellow too. Perhaps that's what it was for.
Just me who thought Trossard got it for kicking the ball away? Don't think Oliver was doing anything but give a foul (and it was a stupid barge) but then reached straight for his pocket as soon as he kicked it.
Only complaint Arsenal can have is where the extra minute came from as it was a very quick VAR check so really only 30 seconds should've been added.
It's been a good game. Arsenal can certainly win the league and Rodri being out for 2-3 months would significantly help them as he's just a psychological player for opponents, it just feels different playing Man. City without him there centrally.
Ederson turned into Vicario in this game aswell. Keepers do realise they can move players out of their way if they're trying to get a corner? Instead he just gets brushed and collapses to the ground. Glad that goal was given.

Yup, Oliver making Trossard kick the ball away. Terrible.
Quite good, yeah. Not deserving of the POTY in my opinion though.
I'm happy with neither was a yellow, but both things together made the yellow. He's just feckin thick for both things.
Trossard didn't really give Oliver a choice there, did he?
Just blatantly shoulders Silva in the back and then boots the ball away. It's idiotic from him.

I don’t think he gets the red if he doesn’t kick the ball away. It probably tips Oliver over the edge when he does.
If It’s for the foul it’s absolutely correct i hate them sort of challenges personally.
Right, that’s a clear yellow. He knew he was on a yellow already, so nothing wrong that the ref did. Only issue is that the game was over past the 6 minutes added time then.
Haalands was also a yellow card offence tbh. The thing is with football fans there's always ifs and buts. Just because Haaland got away with it doesn't mean Trossard will. Unfortunately football doesn't work like that.
It was a yellow though, what’s the moaning about?
Did Arsenal take the freekick ten yards further before the goal?
Harsh! Crack head lesbians don't deserve that.
The way I see it even if I think the sending off is harsh in of itself, Trossard still gave an idiot like Oliver, the opportunity to make a decision and he can only blame himself for that
The worse thing is Pep would have been in such a bad mood… idiot
Agreed they just sit around and think of ways to stifle the games.
Bent fecking ref. No way that was a red especially in a big game, they let worse things go all the time.
Both Arsenal goals where they benefited from the refs call…
