Chocolate Teapot Posted 1 January 2021 Share Posted 1 January 2021 I quite like united being in a title race. Theyll inevitably blow up at some point and Liverpool having some sort of competition is a good thing. That point we got against united is a very good one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lcfc_forever Posted 1 January 2021 Share Posted 1 January 2021 (edited) Posted before that while Everton, Southampton and Man Utd have been the jammiest sides this season so far based on expected goals, Man U are the least likely to fall away because: 1. The refereeing/VAR decisions that go in their favour. It's beyond a pattern now, they've benefitted more than another side since its introduction 2. They have the most in-form attacking player in the Premier League in Bruno Fernandes, however much of an annoying sh*t he is (to be fair, any side would benefit from someone with such drive and that will rub off on the other Man Utd players) 3. Their squad depth is arguably the best in the league, especially in midfield and attack However, despite their attacking depth, they are very reliant on Fernandes - if he gets injured for some time, their season might well unravel.

Hoopla10 Posted 1 January 2021 Share Posted 1 January 2021 Good game and a much better watch than the WH/Everton game. A draw would have been fair on Villa but ManU get their complimentary cheap goal. I've no idea what the ref' was doing for the pen. The standard of refereeing in the Prem' is a joke imo (best league in the world lol). And nothing will get done about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they’re in with a sniff their diving will go into overdrive and the refs and VAR will lap it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tielemans63 Posted 1 January 2021 Share Posted 1 January 2021 Solskjaer is doing a decent job there but at the same time i don't think United being second is any great achievement; they have a massive squad, huge wage bill and virtually no injuries. They are where they should be really. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AjcW Posted 1 January 2021 Share Posted 1 January 2021 I’d be disgusted with AWB if he was one of our players there. Spend the whole interview chewing gum so that A) you can’t hear and B) you don’t want to talk. Avoid the question that rightly criticised his error.

But Villa (Along with Chelsea, Spurs and Everton) are more likely competing with us for fourth. I'm happy they dropped three points. But to be fair Villa are a good side and deserved a share of the points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blanchflower78 Posted 1 January 2021 Share Posted 1 January 2021 Watching Villa, cant help wondering if that's how Brendan intended us to play when he first signed Perez. Very impressed with the turnaround, always felt they had some good players. Project Restart really played in to their hands with the break and have never looked back. They appear to be a more sensible version of Leeds! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadno'r Cymoedd Posted 1 January 2021 Share Posted 1 January 2021 Lots of people saying they thought it wasn't a penalty on her. It was soft, but he was caught. If one of our players went down like Pogba in the box, we'd be saying it was a penalty I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villa are as vile as spurs but for me, Man U are the most the vile team in the land. My hatred for them has gone into overdrive as Fernandes in the most detestable player in the league right now. World class player but a horrible, cheating, arrogant rat. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
