    How many, and what test types ??
    Is Klipperty telling us he had an entire dud batch of test kits,
    or are the Poool the "black swans" of corona test stattery. :)

    How is their first goal not offside? They looked at the wrong thing entirely. <doh>

    I say it every year so (yawn) apologies in advance BUT it's just wrong to do the draw for the next round of the FA cup before they've even attempted to complete the last round. Sure games might get postponed, but here you have teams that haven't even been scheduled to play that already know their opponent. No it's not a major thing. Doesn't stop it being wrong though.

    Small boys. Jumpers for goalposts.
    Huddled round the hand-held radio on monday lunchtime.
    FA cup draw, isn't it.

    Thomas Partey just set up the opening goal in the Morocco vs Ghana match.
    Unfortunately for him it was for Morocco:

    Former Southampton flop Sofiane Boufal was the scorer.

    OMG, Utd are poor - and it’s getting worse.
    VAR got the Villa disallowed goal right whatever those with a narrative to maintain might say.
    But Villa deserved to have to gone to extra time at worst.
    Utd so lacking in everything needed to be a top side - attitude, work rate, fitness, running, skill, organisation, creativity, tactical awareness and game management. How can a team of supposedly talented individuals perform so badly as a team?

    What Law of the Game was broken for the goal then?

    Or to put it another way, reverse the teams but leave the situation unchanged. What are the chances of a ManU goal being disallowed under the same circumstances?

    So when Shaw caught the Villa player in the face sufficiently hard to draw blood why wasn't it a penalty and a red card

    Not that talented on the face of it, quite a few are overrated, very overrated in fact.

    Albeit Rangnick seems worse than Ole based on first impressions so that isn’t helping, can see now why he’s never managed a truly top side before.

    Because it wasn't deliberate, was barely a touch and the blood capsule up his nose was triggered when he fell over and squeezed it.

    Really? Your other two arguments were actually more convincing.
    So when Villa hit the bar how about Lindelof having a handful of Watkins' shirt? It flew into his hand by accident I suppose

    Quite possible, these modern nylon shirts are full of static.

    Which ones are over-rated? The starting XI had three home grown players, a free transfer and the other 7 cost an average of £35m each.

    They actually told Rennes, "Is there a time when you could reschedule the match? If not, you win by forfeit." And Rennes said, "We'll think really hard about that."

    Cavani wasn't prevented from challenging for the ball because the Villa player was in his way.

    So if you deliberately run into a player standing in an offside position that means the offside is penalised?

    Which one did you think was a ghost that could pass through the other?
