Keepers often jump with a knee out to discourage opposition players from jumping into them. To me, Mane jumps with his arm out. Red card? No. Yellow card? The ref said yes, but I’m not sure it warranted even a yellow.

Think that sums it up for me

It will all come down to intent

Was there any intent there - imo because he didn’t swing his arm back then it’s not a violent deliberate act that would mean a red card

so it’s a ref interpretation and thats imo why they didn’t send the ref to the monitor etc

If he had been given the red then I don’t think VAR would have changed it as well
 
I think United have rested Jones to make sure he is fit for this game. He should be absolutely astounding given the rest he has had. I predict Man of the Match.

Anyone have him in their fantasy team? Make him captain
 
Will be interesting to see Jones tonight. I fear a rabbit in the headlights and think Wolves will target him and with this terrible 4-2-2-2 system think Wolves could have a good night tonight. It will make United very dependent on the front two and if they go behind think it'll be a long night for them

Can’t remember you ever getting a prediction right,so we are safe.
