Interesting that the saints player who was sent off for the non challenge was heard in the tunnel saying “ martial said it’s not a foul”. According to MOTD.
Reason I say non challenge, if the Saints player had tried to tackle Martial and fouled him, it’s just a yellow. Coz he didn’t and tried to get out of the way it’s a red. Where’s the common sense in that. Wouldn’t it be more logical to have it the other way round.
The games gone to pot.
 
Hasenhuttl must be the first manager ever to lose 9-0 twice and still keep his job. (Assuming he will keep his job...)

No one is getting sacked. When we got done by Leicester we were in a far worse position. Tonight was just a bad nignt at the office. Half a team up against a full strength united, plus mike dean at his awful best and stevie wonder running the var, it was always going to be a big utd win.
We're only 4 points off spurs in 6th, players coming back from injury and a decent new signing, tonight was just one of those nights

I know? I didn't say he should be sacked, I said I'm assuming he won't be. Might just make an interesting quiz question in years to come... which manager lost 9-0 twice in the Premier League, ha.
 
You know I watched Utd v Saints last night on MOT. I felt Utd played to there full potential for the first time this year. Yes I know sendings off changed things. But maybe there is a bit more belief in what they can actually do from an attacking sense.
That said, the two decisions re offside for Saints and the martial penalty, with subsequent sending off and endorses what’s gone wrong with the game, why I have fallen out of love with the game and why I will not re new my season ticket. It just seems that after every game we are discussing decisions rather than the “ beautiful “ game players and teams. How is that right.

Yes totally agree with you.
But giving VAR more time is a common theme, but it seems to be getting worse the more time goes on.
 
Nice to see the standard of the current England keepers being maintained.:rolleyes:
 
Lingard looking sharp so far. Been impressed with his movement on and off the ball.

Bowen on the bench getting a well earned rest and he has stepped in nicely without losing that pace

Just what we needed

Shame no option to buy

Finally puts noble off the bench so defo won't see him
 
Should have been a pen on soucek

Still no pens this season for us

But defo pen

One day lol
