    Everyone ready for the tons of media coverage of Smalling's dive?
    And it's 1-0! <laugh>

    Amazing! Pleased for Ritchie, he's a really decent player.

    It'll be swept aside because it wasn't Alli or another player of who the media want to get hysterical over. Instead the focus will be on whether he's good enough and criticising his overall poor performance with the dive as a footnote.

    How have United not scored? Bad as they've been, Newcastle have been error prone and let them in several times. Great debut from their 'keeper though.

    And Rafa made a substitution when defending a set piece, very nearly paid the price.

    Another ex-Spur, Yedlin has had a good game.

    That should have been a red for Valencia, bloody awful.

    Shelvey's had a good game, for once. Really grafted and played some nice passes, too.

    Yeah, he's been important for them. You can still see why we let him go though, nowhere near good enough technically.

    Gru rightfully man of the match.

    Not looking at the ball. Foot nowhere near the ball.

    Computer says : Alli and Kane are diving cheats.

    Mourinho's appalling, winless record at St James' continues. Bizarre.
    Great weekend, so far. Mon the Saints! <laugh>

    I get that when a player doesn't see another player coming in, they should be more lenient but when the player is clearly aware that he's competing for the ball with another player, at head height it's dangerous play every time. Otamendi's swinger was bad enough but Valencia's even worse because he's got his foot up early.

    Neville talking **** again not calling it out.

    This is the 3rd best result of the fixtures.
    Here's hoping for a similar result tomorrow.
