Come on Arsenal. If we aren't getting near, which looks the case this season. Then anybody but the rags or the scouse vermin.

..and yet he created the goal -no one else created sfa.

True but if someone had been on in his place, maybe he would have created more and kept the ball better. Who knows?

Its annoying as all the pundits, pundit refs etc are all saying the right decision. This makes it harder to take when no one is actually calling it out.
No one with any voice has the balls to speak out.

Richard Keys of all people has just called it out.

 

[Bluemoon has risen]

I am fucking raging.

Their 1st goal is a disgrace. How has the referee deemed that a fair goal? Of course Rashford has interfered with play, he's a yard away and Akanji can't get across because he's stood in the way. It completely swung the momentum after we were in complete control. Disgraceful.

As for our performance, thought we were very average 1st half and just one shot on target the whole game is a concern. Once again Haaland barely had an influence on the game. We need to improve. 2nd half we were far better and controlled it without creating loads.

But we've been screwed there and I can't get over it.

Every decision as expected with Atwell and Oliver went against us. That offside goal would not be given to us and was a disgraceful decision.
They were also allowed to foul at will without the threat of a card (usual late ones given to pad the stats).

BUT

Again not great by us.
Ederson for me at fault for the 1st goal with awful positioning and could have saved the second but defence was all over the place.

its our attacking thats a huge concern, the team is painfully slow and despite having one of the best strikers we cannot get him into games. Whats the now, 6 goals in 8 away games with 3 of those at Leeds.

this team has come to the end of its cycle, defence has injury prone 3 main CB’s, one excellent but ageing RB and other full backs are not good enough and cannot defend. What happened to our rock solid defence from a few seasons back.

Midfield and wingers are a mess. We have zero pace which means as we give the ball cheaply away about 10 times per game we just cannot catch the team attacking us, we have no wingers with pace and directness to take a defender on.

we have to stop buying at Poundland as the quality ofourbuys like Gomez, Phillips, Akanji are a million miles off the level required. Our squad looks the weakest its been for some time.

Our very slow tippy tappy sideways game does not work anymore. We start every game slowly ( think we have 5 goals in the 1st 15 mins all season). Teams have worked us out, just attack us as we are defencivly weak or wait for us to make an error.

The game Seems to be about pace and energy now, and we have neither in the squad.

Sad to say but like at Southampton, the Rags wanted it more today. Forget the title, the way we are playing a top 4 will be a challenge this season as its no longer a blip:
Rags 1-2
Southampton 0-2
Chelsea 4-0
Chelsea 1-0 ( where we were awful 1st half)
Everton 1-1
Leeds 3-1
Liverpool 3-2 ( thank god they had Nunez missing everything)
Brentford 1-2

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola on the offside decision...

"We know where we play."

So get your team to take more fucking risks!!!

 

[come-on-barney]

united are miles off a good team ? only one team in the game that was Manchester city, until the worst bit of CHEATING ever we will still be 15 to 20 point than them even with the cheating

But then you don’t go onto lose the game.

 

[bobgoater]

Rashford interference off course he was . offside law change season to season news to me. Total confusion in the game today with VAR ect

 

[bluemystery]

How about show some effort? That too much to ask?

So Pep is telling them to not show effort? Ok then

 

[Bigga]

He doesn’t care? Seriously?

That's about as fed up as I've seen him.
