United (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

i really enjoyed that.

I struggled to pick a MOTM, but i have gone for Grealish (but i think i've already changed my mind!!). He kept that whole attacking left completely locked down in terms of presence and tracking, plus provided control of the pace and great passing too. I thought "Jack is back!".

Antony should have been sent off, asbolutely, i was very surprised the ref let that purposeful hack slide just because they were getting drubbed. Another surprise was getting the pen (in that, it was a pen and it was given at all).

Great all over the field, Erling was brilliant - I am going to take away some of Onana's credit for the save on HT as the header went right at him but loved the way Haaland leapt like a salmon to score in harder circumstances.

United are sliding deeper into an apathetic disaster, City need to start to accelerate towards the Liverpool game now .
 
The pen was technically correct as there was a clear foul. But it was soft in the sense that you see half a dozen of those grabs every game which go unpunished.
It's the inconsistencies that wind people up though? Akanji was booked and sent off last week for less contact? Probably went to our advantage him not being available this week admittedly.
 
Amazingly it wasn’t Maguire for united who was finally penalised for man handling in the box after so many years of combining wrestling with his Easter island modelling.
But at least the VAR finally did something about the incessant (years) man united manhandling.

Be another 50 years before the next penalty for City at the scaffold though.
We didn't get the other one which was even more blatant
