Only this, i mean seriously fumble. Think on a bit here, your promoting a utd troll who is clinging to his already shaky platform. Knocking it ok but providing a link on a forum that gets many views per day doesn't go towards silencing him does it. You are essentially propping the person up by providing another platform for his childish views to be espoused from. Even utd fans can't be arsed with him!
 
yhp, Sterling with 4 fouls and then Delph with 2, and nobody else in our team had more than 1, very tactical.

Meanwhile United had Herrera, Matic and Lingard with 3 each and Young and Valencia with 2 each. Sterling gave away 4 fouls and was fouled 3 times, as was Sane and Silva twice. Perhaps he could do a piece on why they gave away 3 times as many fouls in their own half than we did in ours? In fact, we only gave away 2 fouls in our own half all game, which is quite incredible.
To be fair, we are actually really good at tactical fouling, it's part of how we prevent getting hit on the break. We are not some clean, angelic footballing side, it's all about winning and fouling is part of that. The earlier you commit those fouls the better, much less likely to get a yellow. We didn't have to do it much against the rags, because they never bothered trying to play out and just lumped it aimlessly forward at the first opportunity.

Whilst we may be good at it the whole thing is getting blown out of proportion.

From our regulars only Sterling (1.3), Fernandinho (1.2) and Jesus (1.1)commit over a foul a game in the league.
