Only one team has won all four PL games in November, surely the Manager of this team will be awarded Manager of the Month?

Not for the (corrected) error but for the overall sentiment of your original comment.. as Captain Mainwaring would seethe at Private Pike, 'You stupid boy..' (!!)

As you say, surely there can be but one winner.. (but no doubt there'll be at least some thought given to how not to reward Pep for the month's efforts!)
 
I note that the commentator on Wednesday explained to us that Villa had suffered some very bad refereeing in their dismal run against City. One was the second goal in the Carabao cup final which came from a corner wrongly awarded. Fair enough. But a goal at the Etihad which should have been disallowed? I presume he's referring to Bernardo's goal, which everyone accepts was legitimate but certain red tops thought should have been disallowed because Mings had misunderstood the off side rule. Like Mane commits a red card offence but shouldn't have been sent of on the minor technicality of kicking Ederson in the teeth with the ball long since gone.
 
Yet another of our players linked with Barca , this time Torres ,the skint Spaniards remind me of the time i went into the Lamborghini showroom and was interested in a lovely metallic grey Gallardo , when asked how i was going to finance the car i pointed to my 20 year old Mondeo as a part-ex ,needless to say the salesman was not impressed but like Barca we can all dream.

The media claimed Eddy was at fault for coming so far out of his area and endangering himself. I think Allison Rudd was among these idiots and she's supposed to be a qualified referee.

So did Tyler and Neville who had no concern for Eddie whatsoever and kept harping on that it shouldn’t be a red because he had made himself an ‘outfield’ player.

That’s the type of commentary you get when an ex-player thinks his own team still have a shot to win something.

As I remember, the reason for them claiming it was not a red card offence was that "mane had every right to go for that ball", and this was a phrase I heard repeatedly from the media.

I never heard that phrase in relation to van dykes injury by pickford though..........funny, as it was the same cronies moaning about it.

How about players exercise caution regards endangering opponents, flying through the air out of control with your foot at head height shows a lack of caution, but no one dared suggest that from a dipper player.

As we are (mostly) all aware, the footy media are not frightened of being hypocrites, far from it in fact, just take a look at most of what is written about us. Their desperation to show us in a bad light usurps any dignity they may have once had.

Tyler screaming "Payback" in the return fixture when Snidy Sadio scored against Ederson was despicable.

8 Man United stories on BBC sports page out of 15.
Commentary last night was pathetic. Screaming the name of any United player who shot at goal... Who was he? Embarrassing...McCoist also blotted his copybook with his hype....

Heard some of it on radio 5 last night, it was Darren fletcher commentating, when they scored he went mental and was saying just listen to the noise inside old toilet, it’s fantastic it’s deafening, then bbc turned the mouse volume up. Embarrassing.

Before I went out I heard McCoist say “if the ref sees that it’s a clear penalty” (I think it was Maguire?), so if that’s true what the fuck is VAR for Ally?

Spain forward Ferran Torres, 21, has asked to leave Manchester City and has an agreement in place over a five-year contract with Barcelona. (Mundo Deportivo - in Spanish)

I wonder where they are finding all this cash?

I wonder why no-one is kicking up a stink about illegally tapping up our players, but am sure the media will mention it tomorrow..........
