And, we’re off.......2018/2019

It didn’t swerve too much but DDG just wrong footed himself maybe trying to anticipate - decent enough strike but DDG is only human and even the best make the odd mistake , he should be forgiven with the amount of times he has won them points over the last 3/4 years

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Swerved loads, how else would you explain a world class keeper misjudging that?

He just made an utter cock up. Sky have shown clips from behind the goal. It moved but it wasn't a banana shot. Mistakes happen, he made one.

De Gea is world class but he let in a real sitter in the world cup as well. That's not having a pop, it is just reality and it happens occasionally.

It only has to change direction just after Xhaka struck it and it would make a massive difference to De Gea

I think DDG thought Xhaka would curl it the other way.

More to the point, the lino keeps getting his offsides wrong. May be he needs it explaining to him at half time.

Who is more overweight Luke Shaw or the Ref? 🤔

 

[Deleted member 15344]

That’s shocking from Jon Moss - they are away with pace and numbers with the ball at their feet - why the hell didn’t he allow the play to carry on !

Lukaku playing well again but Rashford got concrete in his boots today - no touch at all

 

[Deleted member 18121]

I know it's not cost goals... But the ref and both Lino's are having a shocker.

 

[Dando]

Can't see how Neville can blame De Gea there. He's moving to his left and the ball swerves and dips massively to his right.
Even after a few replays he says the same thing.

It’s clearly the keepers fault! He commited to go left for no reason

 

[Kellfire]

Lukaku needs to convert chances against big teams.

For no reason? Mmmm a top class goalie , probably the best in the world guesses what way to go before the player shoots?

I don’t think so somehow.

 

[USER1999]

If that was rugby, Pogba would be off. Footy, not even a yellow.

Stop talking. Please.

AS the player shoots he commits to go to his left. There is no reason commit so early

 

[sawtooth]

I agree he chose left as Xhaka shoots , and the ball changed direction soon after leaving Xhakas foot. Simples.

 

[Kellfire]

Simples.

Personified.

If he hadnt commited himself too early he would’ve saved it. Simples

Ok we agree to disagree.

Very amateur mistake to make for the best goalkeeper in the world to make. Quite unbelievable.

 

[Kellfire]

Fred is a second behind everything so far.

And there’s a penalty to prove my point.

 

[USER1999]

Not Auba, for flips sake.

 

[USER1999]

Ok.
