Good performance, we deserved points from that one. Ronaldo was getting nothing from Sorensen and Kabak and had to dive, I’m sorry there is no way that is a penalty for me, he jumps and falls backwards, he was never getting there anyway even with his massive leap. Cheat! Officials were awful, every 50/50 given to Man Utd.
Sorensen came on and, as usual, played with great authority. Nothing flash from him, just a steady, reliable game. He will probably play in the Villa game if the other CBs are out.
What are you supposed to do when it's 12 vs 11? I thought we outplayed them for decent spells, esp 2nd half. Gutted to come away with nothing.
I just hope the losses don't dent the confidence because we are playing well now except we are snatching at things in front of goal. Dean Smith has done a great job so far - we look so much better than we did under Farke. We look like we belong in this league, although to be honest I'm not sure we'll be able to dig ourselves out of the hole our first ten games put us in.
Great performance. Made ManUre look ordinary. Play acting by Ronaldo to give the ref what he was looking for. Thought we were done for when Hanley went off but Sorenson was excellent. Shame we get nothing for that.
He never looks overwhelmed, so calm and collected on the ball. I know he was playing CB but he is one of those players that always looks like they have time on the ball. So calm and assured tonight. If I’m being critical, he stepped out of defence a couple of times and the ball was played in behind him but it’s not his natural position. Overall I thought he was really good. Special mention for the much maligned Placheta and Rupp today who I think were two of our best players.
This one has really annoyed me, ok we were once again poor at taking our chances, but Man U never looked like scoring either. To me, it didn't look like a pen, flipping Ronaldo doing what he does best, and dive on his backside. The sky commentators were really annoying too, but I'd expect nothing less from Man U supporters.
The commentary on Sky was beyond appalling today. All Man U fans and absolutely no credit given to the Norwich team, or recognition of how bad the refereeing was.
Oh how I wish somebody would put the ball in the net.We have only seen that happen 8 times this season.
With 10 minutes to go, they were already celebrating Man U win, I was so hoping we'd score, to shut them up. In the first half when we were attacking, Gary said we'll be glad to get to half time. They kept mentioning our lack of attack, but failed to mention Man U hardly troubled us, even though our main CB went off in the 20th minute, and had to play a midfielder in there. It was so blatantly biased.
I agree, but Aarons was naive. He gave Ronaldo the chance to cheat and he took it. And from the look on Aarons face, he knew it.
It may not completely show yet but Smith has had a major effect since he and Shakespeare arrived. He stuck to the 4-3-3 with some clever tweaks and made it work. One day we'll get a bit of luck our way, but not with officials like that.
