You are confusing my points with those of Neville and whoever in the media. I am not agreeing with them my point was why other fans (from talking to them) get annoyed when some players commit fouls without punishment. I will say once more we don't get away with anything because there isn't anything dirty or underhand to get away with. Care to answer why you use and accept stats that back you up? So you agree that we must be a dirty team because we give a lot of fouls away despite having most of the ball because the stats say so? Something tells me you wont agree with that. Now you are saying he has never committed a foul and the refs waved play on. Crazy. Fernandinho would be a shit centre mid if he didn't commit the tackles and fouls he does. It is part of his game, to claim he doesn't do that is madness but if your head is too deep in numbers and stats you probably wouldn't notice it. You say the seed has been planted and is utter bollocks, someone else would argue the stats prove that isn't bollocks and we do in fact commit fouls and stop attacks. STATS I tell you!
Stats so far this season would suggest Glenn Murray and Morata are evenly matched.
Dear God, one stat would say Morata & Murray evenly matched.
It’s another daft thing to say.
We foul the least in the whole league. I witness this with my own eyes & the stats back me up. Again.
Chelsea, another team with a similar style and mentality are around even with us.
We foul no more frequently than other sides who have similar possession stats. Namely Chelsea & Liverpool.
Fernandinho doesn’t commit that many fouls. It’s simply another myth.
1.45 per game over the last 4 seasons.
Including 11 games this season.
On average 6 yellows per season over the last 3 full seasons.
This is a statistical fact.
As for the play on fouls against Fernandinho, you’re so desperate to be right, you can’t see how daft that point is.
Just rewatching the game now on the NBC coverage, Dixon has just mentioned our tactical fouling, so Mourinho, Neville & Hughes, MOTD, Talksport are all now running with the dark arts & tactical fouling, it’s frankly bollocks & statistics proven as such.
You’re obviously just a little gullible and have fallen for such a narrative.
It’s a blindingly obvious attempt to influence, first by Mourinho & now by United’s offial tv mouth piece on live tv.
Hopefully the officials aren’t as gullible as you, Dixon & Hughes et al.
