Was it only ten ?

Think so. It was mid-Sept and then Dec we won again. Konchesky vs Villa if I remember correctly.

Hull away maybe?

Just rewatching our goals from yesterday (looking for another angle on Vardy's goal) but for the Soyuncu goal - does the ball strike Perez's arm? Daka shoots, de Gea blocks with his feet and the ball bounces up and off Perez to Soyuncu. Obviously nothing intentional and Perez's arm is in a natural position, so I'm not claiming handball. Just wondered.

VAR check all goals so whether it did or it didn’t it’s utterly fuchin irrelevant 🤣

Not suggesting otherwise. As I said, just interested.

If it had then it would have been disallowed as it led directly to the goal (irrelevant of natural position) 

 

looked like his leg to me

To be honest I think an awful lot of goals that are seen as brilliant are as much luck as anything. Greenwood’s goal was spectacular but he tried similar at least twice after that and got nowhere near. His goal was hit with the outside of his foot, bent away from Kasper and went in off the post. Striking a ball in this way gets loads of power but sometimes not so much control. In golfing terms, the difference between a fade and a slice.

Yes. It's often the case that a shot from that point off/on the boot where the player tries to give it spin and power can end up in the 'gods' twenty feet beyond the post. The fans might jeer the miss, but it's a phenomenally difficult technique done in a moment, and, when it does work, then it can be a GotM.

Thats what makes the player...Those that have the Audacity, mental strength & character to try it, again & again....its what ma!es the game of football,

Worth watching....Around all forums, Posters moan about players taking a risk, & not Playing the obvious safe ball then whine over Football becoming stale...

 

Like cricketers who try something different, sometimes look foolish, but Dont Hide & try again...

Thanks for looking. It was difficult for me to say definitively hence me being interested in other peoples views

Ok, cheers. Final verdict in!

Interesting to read the press, Man U, definitely one of the top teams, lose their 29 game unbeaten away record and they want to sack the manager, players bleating, fans, miserable fuks

We moan and whinge about ours because lets be honest we`ve been playing crappo, but few asked to get rid of Rodgers, and none of the players moaned in public

The tunnel cam is a good watch...highlights include at 9.06 Kasper having a go at the ref saying he is waiting for the ref to give us a cheap yellow card but won't give Matic one! Also at the end nice to see Justin and Fofana giving their congratulations.

Love the end of this with Fofana and Justin waiting for the lads, both look like they can’t wait to get back out there.

Perhaps this will put to bed the BS about the fractured dressing room etc

As bad as our season has been, we are only 4 points from top four and yesterday was a superb performance… there is every chance we can have another wonderful season.

Was just thinking the same. I know it's if, buts and maybe's but if we'd had a stronger ref re the time wasting v Burnley and a stronger ref full stop vs Brighton we'd have 5 more points than we currently do and be sitting in 4th. The performance at Palace was a stinker and we have looked disjointed a lot of the time but not too much damage done and plenty of time to catch up.

Dunno what was going on with the queuing outside the West Stand turnstiles yesterday but if they hadn't removed those barriers then thousands would've missed kick-off. The PA announcement about being patient didn't explain why. Never seen that before.

Anyone know how to download or buy the whole match to watch? I want to avoid streaming.

LOL, if you could buy the whole match i`m sure Manu manc and others would already be doing that, newcastle later on to avoid being the richest club to ever get relegated for sure

Crikey, Maguire was awful yesterday!

From his pissing about on the ball, to his passing, to his positioning it was one of the worst displays I’ve seen from a CB for some time 

Have you only just realised how bad he is? Slow, cumbersome with no defensive abilities whatsoever

No it’s the first time I’ve ever seen him play

Absolutely spot on!! Add to the list Matic’s cynical foul on Maddison after 2mins which should have been a yellow card too! Pawson is  as soft as they come. 
 

There was a Pogba shot in the first half which went wide, he’s taking an age to decide if their was a nick on it, Pogba gets in his ear … corner given. I’ve not seen that one back on TV but in real time it looked pretty clear he was unsure until being swayed by the bloke next to him. He really was absolutely useless!!!

Even the commentators were highly critical of Pawson over Pogba's "winning" the corner.
