Utd have been absolutely woeful and should've been down to about 8 men, so it's 1-0 to them.

Not sure about being down to 8 men - you seem to want every foul to result in a booking, but you’re spot on that Utd have been woeful.Utd have been absolutely woeful and should've been down to about 8 men, so it's 1-0 to them.

There were loads of poor tackles that weren't even given as free-kicks.Not sure about being down to 8 men - you seem to want every foul to result in a booking, but you’re spot on that Utd have been woeful.
Who is coaching these players?
Individually they are talented, but collectively it’s as though they’ve never met. What do they work on in training?


It was a clear penalty kick, Penited trousering 2 extra undeserved points courtesy of the officials and its only game one. And some mugs on here think there is no red shirt bias.Hooper gets told to look at it and books O'Neil, instead!
Just open, obvious corruption. Bent. As. ****.

First half incident as wellHow was the Wan- Bissaka lunge at the ankle of Hee-Chan not a straight red

It was a penalty. Onana didn’t get the ball and collided with the player. That was clear from the TV footage.From the BBC:
"The Premier League has just told us that it was checked and cleared by VAR."
"It was not deemed a clear and obvious error so they stuck with the on-field decision."
So the Son penalty v Brentford was, but that wasn't?
Pull the other one.
Did the player running in to head the ball who collided with him get the ball?It was a penalty. Onana didn’t get the ball and collided with the player. That was clear from the TV footage.
But Son’s tackle was a penalty too for the same reason. Less obvious, but the same outcome when you look at the images in slo-mo.
The authorities needs to be clearer in how they expect the rules to be interpreted. Many of these decisions are fractionally late tackles in a contact sport. Yet players can happily wrestle with each other at corners. If every physical challenge resulting in a marginal foul is called as a penalty (if in the penalty area), then there there should be 4 or 5 at least every game. Nobody wants that; but then again, nobody wants clear fouls going unpunished, but very marginal ones being given as penalties. That’s what we have now. It’s the arbitrary and inconsistent nature of it which causes the frustration.
I didn’t think anyone was anywhere near the ballDid the player running in to head the ball who collided with him get the ball?
Except the player who headed it wide.I didn’t think anyone was anywhere near the ball
