Brilliant.

Not the Kyle Walker but good point.

We will be the complete side when we learn when to close big games out , and get the occasional scruffy result , Pep wants to play the beautiful game all the time which is admirable but the really great teams had better game management than we have at the moment , there has got to be a plan B when we need to get a "result" and just take the draw or a slender victory. We will end up with two trophies and will be asking ourselves "what if" , probably sounds arrogant and greedy , but we should have won the lot this season with this football team.

I did like the link up play between Jesus and aguero. Showing signs of an understanding. Maybe 3-5-2against dippers?

Well it was a straight red card, and I don't think you can give a red card in the penalty area without it being a penalty, can you?

But it wasnt a red card.

Have to say we have had some really bad luck in the last two games. Every break of the ball went the wrong way. Every 50/50 decision went against us. Another marginally offside goal for United today again not given. We get 2-2 today and could have even won it 3-2 with one of the two penalties.

Wednesday we were poor and yet with the right breaks that we got none of it could have been 2-2.

Today we were easily the better team but ran out of steam and again with breaks still should have won.

Our luck has to turn soon as we have had a ton of things go wrong in 3 days.

It's not luck
Remember last year exit versus Monaco when the ref gave Agüero a yellow for diving when it was a clear pen (while awarding a much softer pen to Monaco)

Young's Red card probably the 10th such "missed" by refs this season

Or just compare the foul on Sterling by Young not given, versus the foul awarded the other way round, both in the first few minutes

I didnt think it was a pen. I will get my tin hat.

So you should, he took him out at the knee. Frankly, I despair sometimes.

Tiny margins make all the difference, the last two games we have been denied two stone wall penalties, against the dippers they scored a goal that was off side, we were denied a goal hat was proved to be onside.

We have had zero luck in the last 2 games, hopefully it turns in our favour on Tuesday.

Decisions aside, we've bottled it mate. We didn't lose the last 2 games due to poor decisions and you know it. Wed was appalling and that 2nd half today was awful as well. We was playing for the title, at home against the scum and were 2 up and all over them. The team comes out in the 2nd half in a complete daydream and do not react to the little bit of pressure they apply. It was poor and can't be dressed up any other way. Overall it's been a great season but history beckoned and the team fluffed their lines.

Yes. Their second goal today, we lost the ball and we’re te wrong side of their midfield. We were chasing a third goal when we shoukd have taken the sting out of the game after they just scored. Keep players behind the ball for s little while. We’ve been guilty of that in a few games.

8 games to go 13 ahead. We'd all have accepted this back in August. It hurts right now but let's move on now and give it our all

The dippers will have seen this comedy of errors and probably can’t wait to hand us our arses again.
