Why the fuck are these people dancing in front of the emptiest area of the stadium

It was full when they started

No, clear goal under the laws. Akanji didn't touch the ball, he wasn't in line of sight of the goalkeeper. That is a goal all day long, and equally acceptable if it was against us.

The laws get skewed when it benefits United, and that's a problem.

Do you risk taking Rodri off? Can't go down to ten men.

Wont take much for Oliver to get out a card but tough call

 

[Zenmanc]

I'd like to see Josko on. Our left side in the back is looking as shaky as an over set custard.

 

[TonyM]

I'd take Akanji or Walker off for Grealish and let Kovacic drop back deeper.

 

[Paladin]

These are the criteria for offside, and none were met.

 

[Gabriel]

Yep, strange performance. Lillo on his lilo in the dugout.

Compared with our normal style of play, we’ve got too many players whose first touch allows the opposition a chance, especially along the front line, and Akanji and Rodri is an awkward pairing. Can only improve.

 

[Tuearts right boot]

We need 1 more to settle us down and then we'll relax a bit.

 

[Chi-town blues]

Can we get Bernie on for Julian for the second half on the right and move Phil into the middle please ?

No we need more attacking players who can score goals like alvarez , it has to be kova.

Even game v 12 men, Oliver the usual shocking performance when it comes to reffing us, joke decisions at times.
Need to be a lot better 2nd half to get the win

According to the BBC our 2nd was 100% offside. All the fair and balanced comments say it is offside.....
