    Traore must be the most frustrating player in the prem, the lad has ridiculous amounts of talent.

    He doesn’t command the centre circle like Billy Bremner did though.

    Dermott Gallagher gave his expert decision on Pogba's high challenge and kicking the ball away.

    please log in to view this image


    "VERDICT: Correct decision, just a booking.

    DERMOT SAYS: I think yellow card. He goes to win the ball with the other foot, he has taken a step to go over it, he does go over the ball and he catches him on the back of the thigh. It is reckless, but he genuinely goes to play the ball.


    Is he going to be second yellow-carded for delaying the restart? Well, he did not really delay the restart because the restart could not take place because Mike Dean had to give him a yellow card, he probably had to speak to him and say: 'Look, I think you are reckless, that is a high-tariff yellow card'. He wanted time to take him out and cool him down and in that period, you could not really restart the game.

    He may be stopping a fast free-kick, but the referee controlled that himself, so he did not really delay the restart himself."

    So no doubt Spurs fans agree with this.<whistle>

    No he doesn't, he took about 5 touches to control a ball earlier.

    Hugely overrated, might all click for him one day but I doubt it.

    Maybe for one season.

    Big strong and fast but without that he's league 2 at best.

    Since when is it the referee's job to pause the game so Man Utd players can compose themselves?

    Oh found it, since 2001.

    Tbh, I said at the time that he was lucky to escape with a yellow. It was high and reckless, there are other refs who would have shown Red.

    Of course not! Straight red card and another yellow for chucking the ball away.
    Goes to play the ball? ****ing nonsense. His other foot plays the ball. The foot that makes the foul is nowhere near it.

    Le Tissier's got a footballer in his profile pic. It is him, to be fair.

    Is that your guess at the number of fans left in there by the final whistle?
