So you hope for a draw, it that what you are saying......
Of course I'm Happy with the way the game is going. We are wining.
I never want to see my team lose.

If you want Ole to stay in charge then you want Man Utd to win.
Appreciate the support.

If there was a realistic way of Man U going on a serious run of losses and hang on to Ole then that would obviously be better however it is handy when the teams lower down in the league beat the better teams to enhance our title challenge too so yeah I would be fine with your lot beating City and taking points off Everton too if it means we can get some breathing space towards the top.

As has already been said, I am sure you were cheering for Blackburn all them years ago when if Liverpool win, your team win the league. Fair play, sticking to your principles there lad.

Surprised there's even a hint of debate about this. I really hoping for a United win here, anything to keep Ole at the wheel and a decent manager away from the club.

That should be a penalty.

The two of them kicked him :pac:

Pickford is a maniac in goal. Never know what he's going to do.

How's that not a foul.

Going to give a pen here for the follow through?

Pickford is better at catching center backs than the ball FFS.

You'd wonder why pickford bothered to try catch that it was going wide anyway.

Because Pickford.

Pickford is sick of being a liability for his own team so is continuing his trend of taking out others and being a liability there too. Dangerous lunges and kicks.

Maguire lucky too. He got about 10% ball and 90% man. Have seen cards given for follow through on a tackle before, even after getting the ball.

Ref is having a shocker in fariness, Fernandes could have had two cards today already at least, Maguire could have been in trouble, def should have been a pen and then the question would be was he making a legitimate effort to play the ball for a potential red. Just an all round poor reffing performance.

The BT commentators are poor. It doesn’t matter if you “get the ball first”, it can still be a dangerous tackle. I don’t think the Utd defender’s tackle was too bad, I’m just referring to their criteria for tackle being acceptable or not.

Free kick every 30 seconds. Dreadful stuff.

If Utd has lost this it would have been lights out Ole, poor result, international break, top class manager available.....

Hopefully this keeps him there and Pochettino finds a job elsewhere.
