2-0 palace.

what is it with them? They seem to get these amazing results against the top sides quite regularly! ….

But then lose 2-0 to Bournemouth the week after. <laugh>

A trait of mid table teams.

Looking at their fixtures long(ish) may it continue as
they will have played all the usual suspects
well before they get a chance at home to Spurs.
 
The BBCs report of the ManU match? Seven lines from the end of the lengthy report, the only mention of one of the most obvious penalties never given:

"Southampton, who were infuriated when handball was not given against McTominay...."

Really doesn't sum it up does it?

Arsenal celebrate as if they’ve won the World Cup

Nope, don’t like this. I’m not a fan of this whole celebration police stuff. If we want to celebrate a win by showing joy, and creating a good atmosphere with the fans, we are entitled to do that.

It’s not up to you, or anyone else, to tell us how we should or shouldn’t celebrate a win.

Also, it was a late winner - why shouldn’t we be joyous?

What was so heinous about McTominay’s actions when Adams escapes even a mention?
Adams heads the ball into McT’s upper arm/chest and the ball then pinballs between the upper body/arms of both before Adams appears to knock the ball away with his arm when he stretches his arms wide in that all too familiar pleading to the ref pose?
How is McT culpable but Adams not?

To be fair, I think spurs celebrated widely when they equalised vs Chelsea :emoticon-0140-rofl:

I get your point. Honestly. But how do you think the situation might have been different if a Saints player had been juggling with the ball in their area? There is nil chance that United wouldn't have got a penalty had the situation been reversed.
