Fair play to him and give credit where its due. I thought he had an excellent game. He let it flow, didnt rush with the cards early doors and was impartial. If only all games had this standard


I'm just concerned that this refereeing performance is akin to an oasis in the desert and matters will be back to 'normal' during the run-in, to ensure the Scum and the Dippers both finish in the top four.

Then we need to keep the spotlight on all our run in matches, in social media.

If Mourinho decided a point was good enough then it was a job well done, even if we should have scored at least 1. But a masterclass it wasn't.

Surely a scum fan coming to play a team with a shaky defence and a keeper who doesn't make saves would have expected some more attacking intent. They came to shut up shop and hope that their fast runners would get something. Twice i think they got at us or nearly got at us because of speed but that was about it. Their game was all about boot it to bogbrush or kick it behind the defence for roadrunners. Hence their possession stats being as low as they were.They just lacked good enough ball players unless Mourinho simple said don't try playing football just hack it long.

Trouble is we weren't good enough to score tonight with 2 or 3 players just missing their best form.

If all teams played football like the scum, cricket would be the national sport. Fucking rubbish, negative shit. Mourinho and his players are the scum of the earth.

Aguero horribly selfish

Sane and Sterling dreadful


back 4, on the other hand, was immense...even though United didnt really try to attack.

You lot are really something, I can give you that.

Watching the game on sky+post and pre match - that does take some real man courage. I could never do that without breaking something around me.

Top story on Talkshite this morning is Mourinho 'unimpressed' with Aguero's role in bogbrush's sending off. :roll: :lol:

Yeah it's typical Maureen though isn't it? The talking point needs to something else than an abject, embarrasing, park-the-bus display. And he's never embarrassed by complete irony. The team that nearly assassinated the Chelsea players in the FA Cup moaning about strong challenges by Kompany, Otamendi and Ferdy

A masterclass is not correct, there is noting masterful about it, its organisation. They did park the bus and they did do it quite well, but there is nothing genius about, its really terrible to watch.

They played like a Conference team playing a Premier League team. To be honest, I thought Lincoln City did it better in the FA Cup. And their squad are half a billion quid cheaper.

Just watched the tunnel cam. If Jose was so arsed about Aguero why did he stay till the death to shake his hand in the tunnel.
