United (A) Post Match Thread

[Sky Blue]

The problem isn’t KDB, are you blaming him for Mahrez pathetic attempt when put clean though? Are you blaming him for the pass out wide to the left when Sterling was dreaming? And just who is he supposed to thread these eye of the needle passes to if GJ is behind him and Mahrez and Sterling aren’t looking to get on the end of them.
The stats for chances created don’t back your argument. Look at the players around Kev before criticising him, he actually looked pissed off with a few yesterday

2 weeks ago he came out with the bollocks that KDB was finished. Yes, he actually posted that. I said at the time he won't let up on that shite and I have been proven correct.

Let it go Marvin as you are embarrassing yourself.

I see that this board has been infiltrated by hordes of rags and dippers.

Getting a bit old to be honest. There might be one or two sure, but just because people have different views to yourself, does not make them other teams fans. It’s a forum where people have different views. Calling people out as ‘rags and dippers’ just because they have different views to yourself is an easy way to negate their views.

Look at all the players including KDB. He's well under par. I am afraid that Sterling and Mahrez have always been hit and miss.

And for all the Pep doesnt care brigade?

Do you also think Ole doesnt care, as their attitude was no different that ours. Two teams that didnt want to lose is all i saw.

Why would we be bothered whether Solskjaer cared or not? My concern is City.

The cheating twat went down in instalments like Willem Dafoe in Platoon. There was minimal contact and he writhed around as if he'd taken a bullet in his guts. Not a shining example of a role model for all the kids he's helped save from going hungry.

The offside saved us. The pen would have stood without it, Kavanagh couldn't wait to give it. No way he would have overturned it.

So who does he thread these passes though to if the others aren’t there? Does he pass through the eye of a needle and get on the end of it himself

I said in an earlier post it's very noticeable how quite the City players when being 'fouled', they dont make a noise and dont get the foul. Other players scream like a baby and win fouls that City dont. Without fan noise its abit embarrassing watching grown men screaming like babies just to cheat. It is really testing my enjoyment of football. Other sports must look at footballers and think 'grow a pair'

Especially the egg chasers but also hockey and supposedly non contact sports like basketball let alone the lunacy of Aussie Rules lacrosse etc.
I've never understood why refs never learn from other sports how much 'contact' is needed to Impede another athlete let alone knock him over.
Its just struck me that l dont think the womens game suffers from this diving and shouting in pain. They dont seem to need to grow a pair;)

He didn't give the penalty straight away. Had the whisper in his ear a moment later.

Only saw the first half and that was enough, I didn’t want Pep to commit us forward why should we get hurt in the break but I also didn’t want the inverted wingers AGAIN. Let’s get people back out on the touch line making space through the middle and stop coming inside crowding us out. Torres, Foden and Bernardo now need to start to get a run of games and we have no mojo up front. We seem to have sorted the back, although United seem to target Cancelo as the danger on the left from what I saw they doubled up in him a lot. Mahrez and Sterling both should’ve scored first half for me, we need a natural goal scorer and quickly. Didn’t see the second half so can’t comment.

Bernardo has had his chances this season and contributed the square root of nothing. What on earth has he done to merit a run of games ?

 

[give it to gordon]

As for the 'might be off-side' comment I didnt hear as my missus had fallen asleep half way through the second half and was snoring !

It wasnt even close he had most of one leg in an off-side by today's standard of being off-side by a length of nostril hair, that was miles off side
