Mmmm that’s very close to a red that

You’re absolutely right it is. Stop fixating on Man United.

Oh, sorry. You’re talking about the Arsenal game, aren’t you?

No idea what happened in the Man Utd game but will submit my report after MOTD

 

[Slime]

Man Utd won

 

[AmandaJR]

That's a red for me. Interesting to see if the rest of the match has Arsenal time-wasting and cheating throughout or will they have the courage to think they can still win...

At first I thought it was close but when watching the replays it’s a clear goalscoring opportunity

An actual good use of VAR for a change

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Well @Norrin Radd both Brighton and Everton won . Oh, football is looking better now

Agreed. A rare thing where you could see why the ref gave a yellow and also why, with the help of VAR, he changed that. Nothing to see here. Literally what we all hoped VAR would provide.

Not be the first time this season

Having seen the United starting line up I really fear for them against Brentford.

The spine has Eriksen, Casemiro, De Ligt and Evans. In other words, less pace than my 86 year old mother.

I still have 2-1 United in my Super6 because I remain hugely reluctant to alter predictions after I have made them, as it invariably comes back to bite me on the arse, but this now has a Brentford win written all over it.

I cannot fathom why the club chased Ugarte all summer to leave him on the bench and start with a Casemiro/Eriksen pairing.

The forum has its very own Septic Peg

Looking at the upcoming fixtures - Arsenal season could implode in Nov itself - Liverpool, Newcastle and Chelsea up next. That’s a lot of cramp

Terrific finish by Hojlund proper strikers finish not just lashing it.


Is there a worse ref than A Taylor.
Massive shirt pull by Ayew nothing . 5 seconds according to motd, that’s a lot!
Shirt pull at the other end pen and a red.

“ didn’t impact on the game”
Both stopped the player getting to the ball.

Scandalous decision

Under Nuno I'd go to Molineux knowing we'd give anyone a game...we're going to get bent over today.

This is how I feel about Forest under Nuno at the moment. Seems like he really wants to be defensively sound as a priority, yet that doesn’t mean parking the bus.

What’s the feeling among Wolves fans about Gary O’Neil right now? He got off to a flyer with you guys but the bubble seems to have burst now. How much longer has he got and if that’s the way it’s looking, who is being touted to take over?

also, were the Kudus face pushes using “excessive force”?? Asking for a friend

I think we will be lucky if he's just banned for 3 games

Just seen it on MOTD. The lack of consistency is absolutely staggering.

Yes but he kicked VDV twice delibaretly as he was on the ground.

VDV does push him as well.

So was his excuse.!

He didn't kick him he was attempting to play the ball, VDV was trying to shield the ball with his body

However what followed is unforgivable
