Ollie wants 'protection' for his players from City's tactical fouls. Tactical fouls tend to break up an attack by a seemingly clumsy tackle, an inoccuous push or pull, and aren't the leg breakers from which City players have often needed protection from Rag mad dogs. What Ollie is doing, having read the RDAHMeedya clamour for refs to look at our 'tactical' fouls and not theirs, is to have a game that Arsene always used to hanker after - no tackling of his players.

I'm sick to death of that little prick's stupid face and whiny voice. After starting out as a kind of nice guy he has reverted to type, a snidey gloating rag turd. The sight of him applauding Ferguson, Charlton and co after their 2-1 win was nauseating to the extreme, no more of it please City, put the slimy rag scum back under their stones!

Doesn't seem to be much excitement regarding this game, very low key.

Does feel a bit like that. Probably because it's over two legs. There's a good chance nothing will be decided tonight.

Am I correct that this whole thing can be traced back to Gary Neville on sky coming up with his pet “theory” about Fernandinho once in comms, and its just snowballed as other red pundits and red journalists have repeated it?

This is the same Gary Neville, who along with his brother, kicked the shit out of Antonio Reyes in the infamous “50th” game. What a hypocrite and an example of the hypocrisy and double standards that permeates the game as a whole.

Got a good feeling about this...

I understand you've got 6k empty seats with Utd worried about City fans in their stands.

Referee: Mike Dean Assistants: Ian Hussin | Darren Cann Fourth official: Lee Mason VAR: Kevin Friend Assistant VAR: Stephen Child

The same Mike Dean who allowed Ashley Young to get away with trying to cripple Sergio Aguero. I wonder if Mr Solskjaer mentioned this in his weird diatribes?

I’m laid up with a broken arm after falling a**e over t*t last week. I’ll be laying off the painkillers so that I can get wired into some tins to cheer on the blues. Smash the rag c***s, City.

That was Martin Atkinson.
