Defo offside but why do they start the line at the defenders foot surely he can defend with the part of his arm that an attacker can score with?

Wasn't q peno for me, thankfully it wasn't left to the ref

Nice theatrics from Rashford.

No different to the Brighton V Liverpool game so going on consistency it would have been a pen, would have been interesting to see if there had of been no offside what VAR done

PsychoPete · 12-12-2020 06:41PM

Var, how could you turn your back on us United fans like

Walker kicked him, it was going to be awarded

eigrod · 12-12-2020 06:43PM

lol @ Maguire there.

Bridge93 · 12-12-2020 06:46PM

Rodri is such a nothing player. Has the fouls of Fernandinho and nothing else

tayto lover · 12-12-2020 06:46PM

This is sleep inducing stuff.
Not the same without the crowd.
Football is fc****.

Corholio · 12-12-2020 06:47PM

One of the worst 60 minutes I've watched so far this season. Like a tepid, pre-season game, and not really cos of lack of fans either tbh.

marklazarcovic · 12-12-2020 06:49PM

For the amount spent on these teams this is shocking football.

doc_17 · 12-12-2020 06:49PM

Utd have a strategy for winning this but it isn’t really the same as trying to win it.

Yeah it’s poor stuff. Utd might well win this but they are so diminished playing this way.

JPA · 12-12-2020 06:53PM

What is wrong with Rashford? Barely trying.

~Rebel~ · 12-12-2020 06:55PM

This is an awful, awful game of football. But I did enjoy Walker just leaving Pogba and Fred on their arses in quick succession.

radiata · 12-12-2020 06:55PM

The only good thing about this game so far has been the ref

tayto lover · 12-12-2020 06:58PM

I might switch over to the women’s golf. More action.

Neither side playing well. Having the snooze brothers mumbling through commentary doesn't help,only interested in bigging up De Breyne for every single touch, when he is again somewhat anonymous and ineffective in a big game.
But he's not alone, poor quality all around, I'd say League of Ireland standard only 100, but that would be unfair on the League of Ireland players.

ebbsy · 12-12-2020 07:01PM

I'm only watching this cos I have a few bob on Bruno for first goalscorer.

Horrific quality.

Agent Coulson · 12-12-2020 07:02PM

None of the players look interested at all.

~Rebel~ · 12-12-2020 07:07PM

Both sides - though particularly Utd - look like they’re moving enough to look like they’re engaged, without actually doing anything. There’s so much ‘being in position to challenge’ and then not actually challenging.

"De Gea... De Bruyne... De-rby".

Absolute cringe, Martin Tyler :O

You’d honestly never guess this was a derby. Zero intensity.

12-12-2020 07:16PM

It would have been a crime against humanity to charge fans money to watch this live. An empty stadium suits this game down to the ground.

I wonder is Pep focusing everything on the Champions League this season and just using the Premier League to peak for that in the second half of the season.

I feel like I'm owed a refund as is. I used units of electricity for this.

Yes, I'm falling into the tribal trap myself (not a spurs fan for the record) and was one of those Kane non believers thinking it would never last, but it's true.

We all overlook the criminal and dangerous play of our own players when it suits it and completely froth at the mouth at what are often inoccuous incidents depending on the team and player.

For an Irish man utd fan, John Terry doing anything would obviously results on volcanic rage, and it seems Kane , Stirling and Grealish attract the same opinion.

Do people generally not like Harry Kane? I've never noticed any real ill-will towards him at all.
Or do you mean that it's all Manchester United fans that think that these incidents are dangerous play?
