Still can't understand why Laporte got a yellow

 

[Mr HJ]

We are playing very well - remember this is one of the teams who hope to be in the top 4 playing at home and we've looked so much better. They are defending so deep but if we keep shifting the ball quickly we will definitely score. Look very balanced with Jack and Jesus wide and Bernardo is everywhere. Of course we always have one or four world beaters on the bench to bring on as they get tired. Impressive first half just lacking a couple of goals. As others have said they are just hoping to get us down to 10 with their feigning injuries.

Have to avoid MOTD again now the prodigal twat has scored against a poor Newcastle, it'll be made out to have been awesome regardless of how he scored, better than any goal in the history of football, ever.

He's wearing a City kit.

Anyone else in the US unable to watch this on Peacock?

 

[MadchesterCity]

Looked a very soft yellow for Laporte?

The ref is corrupt.

 

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

Asking for Kev this, enough space at the moment to be exposing the fullbacks, who aren’t great...

 

[Semper aggressus]

Have we looked like scoring? Any decent chances or is it all very slow?

I thought the Rodri one was definitely a yellow (as much as I disagree with it, some players were sent off last season for connecting with an opponent after a follow through)
I thought the Laporte one was never a yellow in a million years.

I’m old school, if you come charging in and get hit by the follow-through it’s because you were late. If the rule is now applied like that everywhere then I suppose I won’t mind. It might even be funny if a United player gets sent off as a result of it, but I won’t hold my breath waiting for it to happen!
