The ref in the galatasary game denied united 2 clear cut penos and galatasary one... decisions were more against them in that game.
Shelvey deserved the red (Evans possibly did too, but he won the ball so...) and Valencias ankle was clipped by johnson who then took him out of it definite peno... however.... liverpool were denied a blatant peno when scholes i think took someone out of it.
The game against wigan welbeck was a clear dive..they didn't score.
Southampton game was a defo peno.
Really...they haven't gained any points from decisions apart from maybe yesterdays game. As much decisions as they get... they get as many against them... people just don't highlight it as much.
The ref in the Galatasary game denied Galatasary two penalty decisions. It was also the timing of the decisions. Galatasary would have gone 1-0 up. Could have changed the game. United were already leading at that point, was not at such a pivotal point.
I agree the Southampton one was a pen.
As for the Liverpool game, for me there is no question Evans should have walked as well. The Valencia one was a penalty by the letter of the law, but there was barely any contact. It's a soft penalty, but can't argue too much if it's given. The problem is the Suarez foul by Evans again was more clear cut. If you give the Valencia one, then it can be argued the foul on Agger by Evans for a third time should be given too.
Do I think referees deliberately cheat to make United win? No. Do I think that 75,000 fans, 20 years of dominance, Alex Ferguson, the biggest names in the premiership hounding the referee and pre match interviews efffect the referees? Yes.
