Premier League Games 1/2/3/4 Jan 2021

[Grealish’s Shinpads]

Watkins could’ve had a couple of headed goals here

Another foul three scum players stood around the ball and Oliver just let’s them.

I was expecting Freddie Mercury to lift his shirt up after he scored to reveal a shirt with Cavani's mug on it

Who is accountable for this.

Thought VAR was supposed to clear up the clear mistakes its actually going the other way.

VAR has shown us there is an agenda.

It’s not an agenda by the league but it absolutely is by the refs. In this case it’s “We will use VAR to determine whether that was a clear and obvious error. Well, I’m the VAR official, I see the replay, I see how the on field official gave the foul — whether it was one or not isn’t material — so . . . call stands, penalty.”

That’s what’s happening. Period.

pogba’s left calf brushes the other player’s leading leg and it deflects the left leg into his other leg and he trips over

All VAR see is that the villa lad touched pogba from behind (even slightly) and that caused the foul.

same thing happened with the arsenal penalty against chelsea, the touch from behind was barely visible but they gave it

Stop wumming & enjoy Thursday nights

That's 27 Premier League penalties for Manchester United since Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's first game in charge.

fuck a duck.. that is insane.

Any idea on how many we have been awarded over the same period?

If it was us there would be a public enquiry, sky would be discussing it for days.

Come on Watkins you should have scored that!!!!

 

[Bigga]

Good grief...

I liked it for the unintentional 'Charlie Brown' reference!

 

[PannickAtTheDisco]

How many penalties have they had since the restart last season? It seems an absolute mental amount. They don’t even seem to spend that much time in the opponent’s box. Would love to know touches in the box vs penalties.

18 in 39 games.

And its immoral

Crazy decision to award a pen, but no surprise from the officials. For us, I am more concerned about the quality of Villa than Stretford so let them have a moment in the sun, they are not as good as they think and will not finish above us.

 

[Craig]

There's no way this lot will be challenging come the end of the season

Hope you’re right but they’ve now got more points than us and Liverpool during the last 12 months. So they can’t just simply be dismissed based on form over a long spell now.

 

[Beanhead]

I really rate this keeper. No idea why Arsenal continued with Leno when they had him.

 

[jaiguruKun]

Giving them soft pens is almost like an act of defiance for refs these days. Everyone knows what's going on but they don't care.

Wouldn't be surprised if the GPC is having more of a "say" on matters these days too.

 

[mosssideblue]

There's no way this lot will be challenging come the end of the season

Sadly, they are playing on a different playing field than the rest of us

 

[Tb1981]

Why do united get the full oooohhhh’s
Villa get nothing
Like sky want rags title race

 

[Gundogan's Moustache]

Surely someone has to call them out on this

 

[remember arthur mann]

Traore is so shite.

 

[Akpowell]

Someone take that fucking Fernandes out

 

[Cornish_Blue]

I’m done with this. I said it before. Having the rags and the bus wreckers at the top is the thing wet dreams are made of for the PL bigwigs. The media wankathon will be in full flow now.
