I have no idea why we would take our best player on the night off in Buendia, for AEG of all people, the JPB on when we have Chuka & Sanson as options.

Im confused with those subs if im honest.

Has to be to do with putting el Ghazi in shop window.  Why else

[Herman22]

But if we ignore the terrible VAR decision it was a good performance. We were the top for the majority of the game and but for poor decision making/ finishing we’d have won the game comfortably!

I think we get a result against them on Saturday

One is shielding the ball with his body while the other stood in an offside position with the intent of blocking his runner.

This^

Cavani wasn’t looking at Ramsey either so that point goes out the window. Ramsey had no interest in playing the ball and was solely focused on stepping out to block Cavani who should’ve been side by side with Konsa when he headed the ball.

Very poor on early goal an some bad misses in a tight game..that Watkins one he has to finish when he gets to it an for me ings has to do better couple of time like one where heads it too firmly..he clean through there with more composure.

however that 3.5 minutes to look for reason to disallow the goal is a joke an just doesn’t happen at any other ground. 

however you have hammered them an don’t let emotion tell you otherwise. Replay that game an you win 8/10.

Delivery from full backs not good enough for a side who want to get in top 6. Set pieces need to improve a lot too

coutiniho an digne will make a massive difference to this side.

ps I reckon you will do them at the weekend

We'll win Saturday.

I dont like VAR at all, just let it go back to mistakes are mistakes etc. Its good in theory but FFS the opportunity for bias is ridiculous, the clowns in the VAR room can just decide what is and isnt a foul and basically decide the fate of games with 50, 50 calls being reviewed on a pick and choose basis. Feels like you literally have to get through about 10 different phases of immaculate play to score a goal at old trafford and the like these days. Any whisker or hint of anything and they dissalow or give things to the big 6. Nothing about it is good for the game the way they run it at the moment. 

meh

I liked your post and agree, yet you gave the ref top marks?

Shome mishtake shurely?

We will be well up for it at the weekend, hope we thump them 5-0! 

We should have been well up for it tonight. I've been generally impressed with Gerrard overall but I didn't think that was a great managerial performance at all.

3 defeats on the spin now. 

[Tumblerseven]

Every time we play united i feel we been treated unfairly by referees...

Let's be clear, I'm not saying the ref had a good game, he was crap. But the goal should have been and was rightly disallowed

No, bullshit. The ball is gone, he’s not shielding it, he’s blocking it. Also, it’s not a foul. He has every right to stand exactly where he is. The same with Ramsey. He didn’t move, Cavani ran at him.

[MackHaakon]

We were brilliant, they looked like a League 2 side. Take the positives and march confidently on

[thunderball]

VAR use here is a complete disgrace. On this basis, no goal from any free kick or corner would ever be allowed, there would ALWAYS be a tenuous technical reason after scouring every inch of play micro second by micro second to disallow it. It’s like they just have to find something. Listening to the pundits after it was only “if” Cavani was going to get to the ball. There’s no way Oliver is aware of the full regulation definition there. It’s bullshit, and it’s every time we play them there.

Yep. For all the pissing and whining that Villa fans will do over this game, we lost and its our own fault.

It feels like an all too familiar story. I hope to hell Coutinho comes in and brings his special talent with him.

Everyone hates Man United, that's why. Lineker read the rules of the game and by the rules of the game, it was a foul. End of discussion.

What the slap to Konsa’s face? I agree.

Lineker does not agree with you.

[foreveryoung]

Vassell on Sky saying was offside from a through ball?? 

[Vive_La_Villa]

What is it with you lot and subs  

We were unlucky today. It happens. Really think we’ll do them on Saturday.
