Too true but at least it evened itself out. We played awful against the mousers and deserved to lose the game but we had a legit pen waved away in injury time that would have won us a point. That point, and more importantly reducing the mousers by 2 may be the difference at the end of the season. If that decision had gone the other way, death threats would be coming out of Merseyside by now.
Indeed. They've spent nearly a whole season whingeing about us getting a legitimate penalty at their place, so can you imagine....
A word of warning for anyone hoping that we emulate The Sheikh Mansour Team: in the documentary series on Amazon Prime there's a moment where the club's de facto chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak doesn't even know the club won the league the previous day. Say what you will about Levy, but if we won the league not only would he know about it, but he'd probably be in the stadium when we did.

They're acting like Pogba's been dropped. It's the League Cup and he's being rested. As for the captaincy, I'd like to hear what Mourinho's actually said. The two of them keep butting heads, but I doubt he'd want to upset Raiola too much.
I don't know but I bet Alexis Sanchez gets a piece of the action. Nobody takes a piss at Old Trafford without Alexis getting paid.
Mark today in your diary - an Andros Townsend thirty yarder hit the net rather than someone in the crowd.
Still can't believe he's the same person that was at Arsenal. He looks a shadow of his former self. 3 goals and 4 assists in 23 games is a very poor return for a player that's (allegedly) being paid £350k p/w. Mkhitaryan's not been amazing for us, but he's certainly popped up with some important goals and assists at vital times. Whoever would've thought we'd have got the better end of that deal?
That's a fair point and granted that there's no direct quotes from Mourinho in that piece from the BBC. However, Pogba's comments are pretty damning. There's no way an egotistical megalomaniac like Mourinho is going to accept being undermined/chastised in the media by one of his own players. It's not as if this is the first time it's happened, either.
Holy fack, what a strike from Harry Wilson for Derby's equaliser against Man Utd. Fully deserved as well. Sublime technique and direction on that hit.
