    I think we're entitled to a deliberate tumble in their box now...right?

    Outstanding defending by Sissoko, following Moss ignoring an obvious foul and letting them break. The ****.

    Mark Schwarzer: "You can see why referees get those decisions wrong but the replays were clear. Fernandes made the most of it, no contact."

    I think you meant to say that Fernandes "did well"...

    I would have taken a draw but robbed by the ref and then saved by VAR

    How the hell did Kane play the whole game

    1-1 FT. A fairly turgid performance and a result ruined by a prick in black.
    A reasonable result, but a terrible watch and it's the usual bullshit with Utd.
    We'd never have been awarded either of those penalty decisions and we can't buy one at this stadium or at Wembley.

    **** result, needed a win.

    Dier ****ed it for us even if it was soft. Hugo made a worldy save. How Kane stayed on the pitch is beyond me, was like playing with 10 men.

    Sissoko all action, missed him. Good goal from Bergwijn.

    Not the result they wanted but you have to feel for Jon Moss and the PGMOL, got them back into the game and did their best to win it for United.

    What I saw in an interrupted set of streams was the difference Bruno has made to United, shame it wasn't us, but Sissoko was brilliant and just may have kept us in that game.

    As PNP says, we've had far more blatant pens not given.

    Suck a fat one, Riley <ok>

    That was one of the most biased refereeing displays I think I have ever seen from Jonathan Moss, he was clearly pro Pen United all game long. On the first penalty, Dier never even tries to make a tackle and Pogba initiates contact by throwing out his leg, the second penalty incident was a clear case of `benefit of doubt` from the moron in charge. That is two gifted penalties United have been given against us this season, which has trousered them 3 extra points and cost us 3 points, a 6 point swing on United in just 2 games, why is it that teams who wear a red shirt always get the favour from the officials. PS: Bruno Fernandes is a first class cheat and diver, play acting, over reacting, diving and general gamesmanship, he does the lot.

    Moss. Awarded them more penalties in 10 minutes than we've had at home in the league in three seasons. The fat ****.

    We shouldn't have sat off like we did though, I miss the Spurs that didn't give a **** and went at Real Madrid when they were 1-0 up.

    There were very few options even before a ball was kicked

    The only real option to play up top was Son, as Dele was suspended and Parrott's appendix is in a medical waste incinerator somewhere - and while we could have pushed him up top in the late stages, the issue is that we had no wide options due to Lucas' injury and the decision to take both Bergwijn and Lamela off in the 70th minute, hence we played Gedson as a winger which was...odd, as going back to THAT BASTARD DIAMOND would have made more sense with three CMs on the pitch

    Lo Celso for Lamela was certainly a sub we had to make, because while Coco was breaking up play and pressing well his passing was poor all game, but pulling Bergwijn as well meant we had one less outlet on the counter...although we'd barely attempted playing in their half for twenty minutes by the time Bergwijn was subbed anyway

    What was Dier supposed to do. He was running beside Pogba who hooked his foot behind Dier’s leg. The only way to avoid that was not to run with him.

    Nah, Riley oversees it and you can swap all the referees names these days, they're all up to nonsense.
