So your lieing motionless on the ground after being pole axed by Pogba and the ref just ignores your head injury until the ball goes out of play 😳🤔

That's cost me 2 acca's 😡

What a nasty niggly match and 11 men with a penalty couldn't put away 10 men, they've got no chance of top 4 if thry can't win their home games, lots to do at OT yet and Pogba isn't the answer.

My boring day shopping with Missis T has just turned into a lovely days shopping seeing that result.
What a lovely day it is today. The bees are buzzing and the birds are singing.

Zlatan should have been sent off, no doubt, but the head stamp was absolutely disgusting!
Arter should also have seen a second red too.
Pogba had a shocker, Zlatan is allowed a bad game though.
United should have been 3 up in the first ten minutes but, as has happened before, the oppo goalie turns into Manuel Neuer!
Bournemouth were extremely defensive and physical, but that's part of football and it was up to United to overcome this ...................... they didn't, which is worrying.
Instead, they allowed themselves to get drawn in to a war when they could have easily played their way to three points.
Sixthchester United have much work to do.
Can't believe how much we miss Mkhitaryan!!

Rooney just blatantly lied in his interview, he did not see it, he was appealing to the ref with his back to the stamp when it happened and then conveniently says he didn't see the elbow, he does himself no favours, the camera never lies.

Nasty stamp - says he didn't do it on purpose but the body language says different

Then the retribution from Ibrahimovich is just as bad

Both should get more than 3 match bans

Only saw the head stamp a couple of times but looked accidental to me. But will look again tonight on motd to be sure. They will probably have 100 different angles and slow mo to show.

Zlatans elbow was deliberate and will probably get a retrospective ban for that.

Agree with this. Still think we had enough chances to close out the game. The stamps / elbow were disgusting and should not go unpunished.

Still think we we are playing better than previous seasons and top 4 is realistic.

First half before the incidents. It was an open game with only winner.

After that bmouth went backs to the wall and Utd couldn't break them down. As happens for lots of teams.

They got their one chance (pen) and didn't take it.

Think both players will get 3 match bans. Ref had an absolute shocker!

With you having to play Chelsea. Spuds and arsenal for three of your 13 games. That is a massive ask

To me, if Rooney hadnt stood up, and caught the Bournmouth player while he was trying to jump Ibrahimovich, he might have made it. No stamp for me. Accident only.

The officials strike again, Vokes (Burnley) handles the ball in the Swansea box and the ref gives a penalty to Burnley 😜😂

4th a given for me purely because our squad is big enough to cope on all fronts.

Only saw the 2nd half and could not believe what I was seeing,a team down to 10 men and we were lumping it into the middle when wide with pace was the answer.

Just a note on Pogba for 100 million he was not worth 10 today very poor and imo is trying to hard he just needs to play and enjoy himself,of course he will get better but for that money you would want a game changer like a Bale or Ronaldo.
