    Anywhere else on the pitch that’s a free kick for a high boot and dangerous play. Do indirect free kicks inside the box not exist anymore.

    I’ve no idea if that should be given as a penalty these days or not but a corner kick means the referee has given nothing at all for tgr high boot

    Our own worst enemy that half, 2 soft goals given away think we got the set up wrong from the off massively out numbered time and time again, looked better since the sub though and get the next goal you never know

    Get a 3/5/2 on the pitch and we will get a point imo., carrying too many players contributing FA atm.

    Terrible to start that left hand side of the pitch knowing we would have Mbuemo and Amad to deal with. Got it seriously wrong RLB and everyone knew how Utd would line up so no excuses.

    A Sunderland goal, whatever it may be, and it'll be a cracker.

    Watching that pen incident back again in slow motion...watch the man u players knee, not his foot.
    I think he catches Hume on the face with his knee.
    Looked a pen to me.

    Its never going to be given as a penalty never mind against Man Utd! But he definitely infringed on Hume playing the ball and made contact with his foot high up on the body.

    Definitely a foul anywhere else but they always do the same, a foul in the box needing a bit more. Bollocks but its how ti is especially playing man utd, how many fouls has Shaw got away without a yellow

    They used to say the only way you'd get a penalty Old Trafford was if the Man U centre half pulled out a gun and shot an opponent in the head in the middle of the penalty area, and even then it might only be an indirect free kick.

    We play high press they panic and it showed when we attacked them

    The problem was down our left Adingra is not tracking back Masuaka left isolated.
    Things have tightened up since Adingra hauled off.
    Le Fe is not physical enough in the middle but since going wide he is giving Masuaka a lot more cover.
    I also think we have given MUFC to much respect.
    They were there for the taking.
    Second half let's go for it I'd rather lose giving it a real goal.

    We can get back into this, the formation changed has helped and we can push them back.

    Talbi on early 2nd half to stretch them
