Milk? I wouldn’t lend a United supporting neighbour a defibrillator.
From what little I've heard of the matches Erikson seems to be playing well, even scoring, Weghorst scored a winner and the Milky Bar Kid even got praised.
Several other rags, ex or otherwise seem to have done well. This is totally opposite of their rag form.
The fault clearly doesn't seem to be the players so I can only think the problem lies with...... referees in the PL, I can't think of any other reason.
