United (N) | FA Cup Final | Post-Match Thread

You've answered your own question.

Jack's arm was in an entirely natural position for someone attempting to jump as high as possible at an angle on the turn, it would be bizarrely unnatural if his arms somehow remained stuck to his side whilst he attempted it.

And yet the ref and VAR somehow interpreted his arm to be in an unnatural position.
I Think u can jump without putting your arms above your shoulder level
 
This is the point. The pundits keep saying it’s in the rules. But it isn’t because Jack didn’t have his hand in an unnatural position. The ball was headed away from goal and Jack was inches away. You will never see another decision like this in the PL. Just like the Atwell one. It is all happening in plain sight.
Isn’t a hand above the shoulder automatically deemed to be unnatural even though it obviously wasn’t? On this occasion I’m inclined to blame the law rather than the officials.
 
It was great in the ground. I honestly thought we would bang another six in against them after that, sadly not but winning was all that mattered.
It often seems to me that when we score very early in matches we don’t go on to play our best. We struggle to get out of 3rd gear. Our best performances usually come on the back of opening the scoring around the 15-20 min period
