United (A) Post Match Thread

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

I’ve seen a couple of angles and I’d probably err on the same side, that he probably glances it by a hair’s width, but as you say - anywhere else on the pitch (or any other penalty area in Greater Manchester for that matter) and that’s a penalty.

IIRC the laws of the game say nothing about ball first - I believe it’s a careless lash and therefor a foul. If it were the other end of the pitch and Cancelo on Ronaldo you can bet your bottom dollar it’s a different outcome.

100%

This thread is just like hi-fiving a line of hundreds...neverending joy!

I have to humbly disagree - inconclusive as to whether he got a nick on the ball, but Jesus definitely didn’t kick Telles.

Thankfully it had no bearing on the result.

That is 100% given against us.

Broken Ole is no fun. Give us some United DNA garbage or something.

Get the forensic scientists in to do a DNA swab at the crime scene!

Not bad

He didn't get the ball first though, Jesus pushed it passed him, he may have touched it after the Jesus touch, but that is irrelevant as he kicked Jesus after Jesus had initially won the ball.

As a Gooner I have no love for Man Yoo - quite the opposite - after Spurs they are the team I hate most and I really enjoyed City’s demolition of them today - I don’t have any particular animus for OGS - he’s out of his depth and it’d be a mercy to put him out of his misery

Don’t talk like that, keep him ensconced in his misery perpetualy.

I meant more that he touches ball before man - ie Jesus pushes it all but past him, he glances the ball, then boots Jesus.

Same difference in the end.

Thought that was at home

Correct, Was at Eastlands…last minute in a 0-1 loss

There’s something erotic about Bernado’s goal celebrations.

There's also something erotic about Bernardo himself.
