Should have known the one time Villa need City to win that they’d play like sheer turd

Nah, helps you in the title race…..aim high

how has he missed that

I haven’t actually seen anything of the actual game as I’ve been in hospital most of the weekend. The only thing I have seen is a video of the ball being given to the Liverpool keeper and the footage from then to the goal, so that’s why I’m only commenting on that bit.

Surely, the worst thing is that a referee has failed to implement the laws of the game correctly, with the resulting effect having a significant impact on both ends of the league.

The actions of the owner pale in comparison to that.

Why don't he just let it hit him .. why try and finish it? Could have just walked that into the net

It's just classic whataboutary..

It’s pretty staggering how not going a drop ball to a player has such a significant impact - even more so when it’s a good 2/3 minutes before the goal was scored. A lot of ifs and buts

What was clear was an owner confronting an official on the pitch and then again in the tunnel after

Referee got it wrong , not the first time for him and it won’t be the last time, maybe the owner should have confronted the Forest players that also made mistakes

 

[SteveW86]

Haven’t Forest also given Clattenburg a job as a referee consultant? Has that ever been done before?

He's been preparing by doing Gladiators

 

[Tashyboy]

Good game for the neutral me finks..

Isn’t that like asking the McCanns for child care advice?

 

[Bdill93]

I suppose it’s mathematically possible

It’s awful

The result is good but the actual football isn’t great by any stretch , guess that’s why the crowd are so quiet

He’s also the ref on Gladiators

No, the crowd are quiet because it's the Etihad.

I was typing about how dull this is and Foden does that!

 

[Deleted member 15344]

That’s another top hit

Need to see the Rashford incident again - looked like nothing in it

A hero arises in a time of national crisis

 

[Swango1980]

And that is the normal Rashford this season

 

[Captainron]

Rashford should be embarrassed by that. Pathetic.

Literally just fell to the floor when contact came.

Banger from Foden
