Premier League 2020/21

Absolutely shocked United didn't get that.

I thought it wasn't a pen, reminded me of the old pires trick, stick your leg out to win the penalty. No way Fred does that in the middle of the pitch.

I haven't particularly taken to Dean Smith over the past couple of years, but here he is quoted on what caused him to get sent off. Fucking golden, if true.


"It was a farcical decision. I've not seen a goal like that given. It needs to be looked at. I don't think anyone in this stadium thought it was a goal.

"I thought they would go over to the VAR screen. I saw the incident and saw it was kicking off, so I asked the fourth officials did they get juggling balls for Christmas."

That's a clear foul by Loftus Cheek.

The way VAR has been run is scandalous. Interpretations of fouls and 'clear and obvious' seem to change week on week. That exact thing is/was a pen. Ridiculous that there hasn't been one standard set and say 'this is the way it's going to be until the end of the season.

Obviously great that it happened to be against united, but the implementation has been so shit!

The wind is going to embarrass some players tonight.

Pre-match vindaloo?

 

[TheChosenOne]

Good chance of some reds here. Bit gritty.

 

[taidgh]

pogba is going to be sent off today

 

[dirtyh]

moss should get done under the trade descriptions act. absolutely stealing a living, the fat useless shitbag.

 

[tommo84]

Terrible from the Fulham keeper to spill that cross.

 

[TheTanguy]

Fucking Areola, AGAIN

 

[SlotBadger]

Slippery Nipple in goal for Fulham.

 

[Montalbano]

These fuckers always come back from a losing position.

 

[Nodutus]

This could get ugly now...

 

[Shadydan]

Areola saved his best performance against us

To be honest my thoughts are that if it looks like there's any chance of it being a penalty, if it's United, it's a penalty so I'm very surprised. Whether it actually was I'll have to watch it again but like @tommo84 said, it looked more of a penalty than most of the penalties they've gotten, which isn't hard to achieve though admittedly.

And FFS this fucking keeper. That's me switching off, I really just can't stand watching United.

 

[philll]

Meh.

 

[Erm33]

Of course they gift united a goal

 

[Athenspur]

What a game changer Man U getting Bruno Fernandes (instead of us signing him) was.

 

[Thewobbler]

My problem with the rule is rodri was almost level with mings when he chested it down and was tackled instantly. If mings touched the ball and rodri was still 20 yards away then fair enough but he wasn't.

Give lo celso time he will be a success

Always goalkeepers turned world class against us, but turned into shit against United.
