Winston Smith Another vital point towards securing a top half finish for Man Utd


Maybe combine our promotion party with a ManUMathematicallySafe Party?

That's the first I've seen of the dive by Pogba. Totally embarrassing, at least from that angle but I can't believe any other view shows it in a better light.

Just for once I'd like to see a manager some out and admit they got it totally wrong and they owe the referee a sincere public apology. Instead I'm sure we'll see Mourinho show no class whatsoever and blame the officials or something else for his and his players behaviour.

Man Utd fail to win in four league games in a row at Old Trafford for the first time in the Premier League era.

Surely it should have been a free kick as the intent was there by Noble? Pogba had to dive over his legs otherwise he'd have been clattered. I'm sure this is the ruling. If intent is there a free kick must be awarded. I recall Gerrard getting a penalty at Sheff Utd for diving over a players leg.

Granted. An overreaction by Mourinho though.

Actually, I think my favourite stat is that Mourinho has as many sendings off at United as home wins. :lol:

Man Utd's 10 year kit deal with Adidas to drop by 30% value if they fail to qualify for the CL 2 seasons in a row

I remember the Gerrard vs Sheffield United incident and they're quite different IMO.

Noble's tackle here isn't reckless or stopping Pogba in the way that the Gerrard one was. I've only seen it from that one angle above but it doesn't look like Pogba needs to take any evasive action to avoid being caught by Noble at all. It looks as blatant a dive as you're likely to see.

Does it upset you to find out that basically that everyone supports Liverpool Kes? Just judging by your definition of support.


I get the feeling you're going to say I'm one too.

Agreed, Conte seems quite nice. It's hard to see past Utd as most dislike worthy now they've got the mental one. Pep seems quite grounded too.

Chelsea are ok this season for me too. That said, can't say I'm too fond of Conte's touchline antics, and anyway, what's up with being bald?

And I don't dislike Man Utd per se, I just intensely dislike Mourinho, think Rooney should have been discarded by England 2+ years ago, and I love it when a hugely wealthy club w4nks off vast fortunes on a bunch of vanity signings.

Stones must be delighted that United signed Pogba.

Pogba has actually been pretty decent but not enough to justify
the fee. Stones has cost City a lot of goals.
