The Footie Thread

I think that if he leaves his arm where it is originally and the ball hits his elbow then it's not a penalty. The fact that's he's moved his arm towards the ball and it hits his hand means it should be a penalty in my opinion.

Please, get Rashford off. He’s having a stinker.

Garnacho's on the bench!

United have been average since January but getting results. Today they have been poor all over the pitch. Not sure they deserve top four playing like this.

This is where football should learn from rugby , both players should be straight off for concussion assessments and the replacements shouldn’t count as one of their subs.

You mean "yet another " thing rugby does better?

And there you go - both back on , football really did bottle it when it came to doing something meaningful about head injuries. Neither of them should be back on the pitch.

Two great chances for Martial. Neither put away. So, so frustrating to see chances wasted week after week.

Very familiar now.
There seems a lack of real quality finishers atm.

Vital win, focus on the semi final now

Thought the goal ruled out was poor. I mean how much protection does a keeper need?

Great to see it out

Well that’s a good weekend for us with Arsenal and West Ham doing us a favour - need a few more of them now

To be fair football does get a lot of things wrong.
letting your £100+ million pound superstars run around with concussion does seem a bit silly.

The handball rule.
Timekeeper.
Etc.

But we would have nothing to disscus.

 

[Slime]

That was just awful.
Yet again, we should have had it won by half time ............................. but didn't.
Four game left and we need nine points for top four.
Wolves at home, Bournemouth away, Chelsea at home and Fulham at home.
Definitely doable, but we are shocking at the moment.
We so badly miss Martinez and Varane.


Oh, and a striker!

One Nil to The Cockney Boys.
Great result for The Toon as they push for Europe

When I saw City v WH midweek it really did look like both teams were resting players. City coz they have an eye on weds night and WH coz they rested players for games where they thought they could get something. Like tonight. WH more or less now safe and good luck in the semis. Seeing how WH played v City at times, the result don’t surprise.

We didn't rest anyone in the end , sickness bug hit the squad

But it did us a favour it forced Moyes to rotate and tbh we have a solid squad we can afford to rotate one or two
