If Man U misses out on CL yet again they will face a 30% reduction on their £75m / year deal.

Not the end of the world, but still a lot of money.

Think they will get CL through the Europa League thou.

Ref couldn't wait to get a red card out there to send off Larsson. Incredibly harsh. Would he have been so quick to send off a utd player?

Probably not given Rojo has been guilty of those challenges twice this season.

Reminded me of when Gabby got sent off v them two seasons ago.

Since I can't stand Larsson I actually have no problems with him getting sent off :)

And since I can't stand him I'm sure he'll sign for the team I support in Sweden come the summer :(

I believe it was the same ref who failed to send Rojo off for his two footer leg breaker (which one?)earlier in the season.

Pictures can be deceiving, never a red in a million years. He just blocked the ball and gently followed through.

The game is in a really bad place from the perspective of tackling/ defending. There is an incredible bias in the game toward attacking football, defending and tackling is a dying art.

Even Man United would miss £22.5m from the annual budget, plus the loss of CL earnings.

Agreed to an extent.  The game just doesn't reward attempted tackles.

You know, those ones that are slightly late so they catch a player but no malice intended and a pure attempt to win the ball?  Automatic yellow card.  Cynical foul when a playing is running clear?  Also yellow card.  Makes no sense.
