Stupid doing that nowadays in the box Yeah stupid and it should have been a pen. But shouldn't Ramos have also been booked for simulation? Since he threw himself to the ground in the opposite direction to where he was being pulled. It's almost a separate incident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You didn't get one last night but got away with Chelsea not being awarded one. Chelsea should have had a penalty on another day Maguire could have got a Red card for that, Done us a favour and got banned for 3 games 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have 7 points from the last 9 and are going in the right direction. I think VDB will get plenty of opportunities, especially with Pogba likely to go. With the ineffectiveness of James on Saturday I think we will see a lot more of him soon. It is hardly a crisis so why copy and paste all this sensationalist nonsense? Oh, and time to cut Maguire some slack after 2 decent performances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mourinho can't resist laying into the players after a bad result can he? It's a weakness. Strength is backing the players come what may, and not being afraid to take the rap. It might be the players fault, but having a go at them to the media is completely counter productive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could say that about 90 per cent of the teams with anti United fans. It's funny, it looks like that 6-1 has turned into a major positive for us, and could be their undoing. It showed us the way to a much more effective formation, while they seem to think they are a lot better than they actually are. Having said that, I think Arsenal will be a really tough game at the weekend, while they have a nice run out against Brighton at home. Spurs are actually looking a lot better than we all thought, but take Kane out of that side and they look an entirely different proposition. With the depth we have now, if any of Rashford/Martial/Greenwood/Cavani got injured you would still back us to cope well. Might be unwise of Mourinho to stick the knife into all his 'squad players' with so long before he can bring in reinforcements. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s doing a Luke Shaw on him but I seems to be backfiring. I would say if they took Son or Kane out. He was singing the praises of Lo Celso recently so I’m not sure what his interview will do for the likes of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he would have flourished under Jose, but he certainly seems to be one of our most solid and tactially aware players these days, and I think Jose drummed that into him.
