Shielding it from who? There was no one near him!

But that makes him in possession and therefore interfering. You don’t have to touch the ball to have possession of it.

Arsenal will destroy us this season. Utd are shit & struggled to do anything

 

[bluemystery]

Pep has been brilliant for us but it's been stale for a while now, we need change

What are you expecting ? Us to get the quad every season and to be invincible?

 

[paulsimpson]

We were the by far the better side and if “that” goal wasn’t given we would have seen it out with a professional performance. It is disgraceful.

Power corrupts and Absoute power corrupts absolutely.

 

[Aguero_Element]

Check out the reddit comments, even united fans are shocked this is a goal

 

[City Raider]

We really miss prime Dias. For his leadership if nothing else.

 

[alexmcity]

That game was handed to United by inept decision making - it is that simple. It is not on Pep, nor the players, and at the time of the goal, City were significantly the better team.

Spot on.

 

[madloaf]

We need to drop KDB. We played without him in the 20/21 season and we can do it again

Set up the goal. None of this is about players. Everything is about tactics. everything.

 

[BlueRhubarb]

Not a great performance by any means but every decision in that game went for them. In control until that ridiculous decision to overturn the offside decision for their first goal. Think Pep and the team were hard done by.
Not even sure about their second goal tbh.
Cancelo needs binning off - his refusal to keep the possession by playing a simple pass to a team mate was incredibly annoying. Thinks he's the main man but he kept losing the ball. De Bryune had one great moment but for everything else looked terrible and basically not fit enough. Bernardo needs to go in the summer - his heart is clearly not in it or up for the battle. Rodri head and shoulders our best. Foden looked like a lost boy and fails to get into the game (mainly due to Cancelo not passing to him) and Haaland sees so little of the ball in the box it's almost criminal.
Attwell and VAR did their job today. Royally fucked us over.

Agree with everything here apart from Cancelo. Thought he was one of our better players tbh

 

[Gogootz]

We will see the equalisijg goal happen again in Brentford v Leeds it'll be given offside and no one will bat an eyelid BENT

 

[bernard o'silver]

Shocking decision but also thought City were again underwhelming & no way near their best. Don't know what's going on

True but still good enough to beat them

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

We were in total control. They weren't getting a sniff. They played a ball to a player who was clearly offside which Ederson or Akanji would have swept up had he not been there.

No doubt in my mind we win that game without that joke of a decision.

 

[lust overlord]

It's all about a stunning united comeback in the media.

Seriously fucked off with the way football is nowadays,with var and the way rules can be twisted,today is the icing on the cake.

Diabolical decision and a diabolical lack of concentration cost us.

 

[blueballs84]

No, not really, they created nothing after our goal, nor were they dominating.

Officiating was as bad as it gets. All those wanting us to win in spite of criminal refereeing decisions are a bit deluded and harsh on the team.

Those ignoring how poor we are right now and blaming it all on officiating are equally deluded.

6 of 1 and half a dozen of the other.

 

[Sky Blue]

Decision was correct, the rule is incorrect

Not correct. Read the rules.

 

[It'sBlue93:20]

I know the decisions went against us but we shouldn’t have let that happen to begin with. Why didn’t we just pass and slow down play. We need a 15 game win streak and beating Arsenal twice.

 

[Gray]

To think some on here think we will win the CL, dream on chaps.

 

[mancyank41]

Tough to beat the Red twats and the officials. I’d need another look but Garnacho was bloody close to offside in the buildup to the second. Personally I’ve had my fill of Akanji. Hope to see Dias back sooner than later.

We will bounce back. The lads look flat, perhaps this will serve as a bit of motivation.

 

[CambridgeExileBlue]

I wonder if that was a record for the number of times we gave the ball away today.
Put ourselves under too much unnecessary pressure.

 

[Laertes]

No. We were fucking robbed

The two aren't mutually exclusive. We could have played another half and not got a second.
