I wonder if Chelsea will get Bristol City in the draw.... It would be completely coincidental too obviously...

I would call Arsenal on that. They are incredibly lucky when it comes to draws in the domestic cup competitions. Take a look back at the draw that they had in the FA Cup last season.

See above.

Mourinho bitter as ever. Bristol City lucky. Dry your tears Jose

Here is the full quote but do continue your bitter tirade against Jose, it's funny :P

"They were a bit lucky. But they fought a lot to be lucky. They fought like it was the game of their lives. It was a brilliant day for football. Congratulations to them"

Do you think they were lucky Mick?

Utd hit the post twice
Must be unlucky for Utd? Lucky for Bristol perhaps?
All games carry an element of luck I would assume.

We finished poorly too. That wasn't luck. Just poor finishing.

As I've said multiple times congrats to Bristol, as did Jose

That is not the full quote. He mentioned the word luck several more times throughout the interview (and there were no leading questions)

That is'nt the full quote at all, you conveniently left out large chunks in the middle.

I see no issue whatsoever with that. In fact the video shows it was very respectful but the hate for Jose is strong in here so it will be blown out of proportion.
Some lads are rabbid pool fans who hate jose and that's ok
Can't look at anything logically because of it

Can the FA look at this dive? One of the most blatant ones we will see this season.

Stole the tweet from the humour thread.

That's fine, it's your opinion, you're entitled to one.

I found it to be very condescending, he gave them congrats but could'nt leave it at that, he had to throw in a few lucky this and thats just to take the shine off it. I would'nt mind if they were lucky tonight, but they were not, they just were the better team and wanted it more.

Maybe we're all looking at it logically and you have the Jose blinkers on? !

Neamhshuntasach · 21-12-2017 12:09am

Just don't mention that they were lucky if you really don't want to say they were lucky. Seemed quite condescending in that. His mouth may have been saying one thing but he was really saying something different.

Missed that in the game. That is shocking. Should be suspension for trying to deceive the ref. I assume it would carry over.

Jose's words are not mine btw

I've paid nothing but respect to bristols performance in this thread
So not sure why you are trying to make it out like I have 'jose blinkers on' as you say

It's just typical blown out of proportion stuff from lads worked up or looking for a reaction let's be honest

Defender had his leg out. The angle is convenient. I'd expect nothing will come of it alas for all the abus wishing it would

It was a soft foul at best and he went down easy but to make out like it was some shocking dive is nonsical IMO

Go away out of that ffs. It was a shocking dive. He was well on his way to faceplanting himself before he got anywhere near a leg. As bad a dive as i've ever seen. And i've seen more angles since.

Which defender? The one on the right pulls his leg back and is at least a foot away from Pogba.

The one in front turns around. Before any leg is near Pogba he has thrown himself to the ground.

Chances of a Man United, Liverpool, Man City or Arsenal player getting done for deceiving an official are very slim.

The one with his back to him, look closely he sticks his leg out

His leg comes out to turn around quicker. Before that leg comes out Pogba is already in the air for a summersault.

Shanotheslayer · 21-12-2017 12:29am

You must be smoking crack Mick. He literally jumps into him and it's blatantly obvious.

I've already said he went down easy but again you were originally making out like it's the worst you have seen all season
So I feel you are completely exaggerating as are others
Nothing will come of it is say

No I'm not smoking crack, it's an addictive drug

It's not blatently obvious but again we tend not to see eye to eye on anything

There's definitely been a lot worse to be fair. But I think Pogba is likely gonna get off lightly as it's not in the box.

Really? Because everytime I say anything about Liverpool being poor or anything related to that you tend to agree and like it.

Well this is awkward.

It just happens if I say anything Negative about United you disagree.

Funny that.

Funny people pretending Jose was gracious. Lucky. Would he ever do one. Jose unlucky bus can feck off back to Manchester to bore the next set of fans

Oh without a doubt there has been a few worse ones alright but this one is pretty bad as well.

You usually say that about anyones opinion which doesn't align with your own though.

Good point haha. He did a little bit alright but it happens all the time. I can't stand it but sure even Salah dives the whole time

Not at all. I just think you're being biased. Saying we never agree on anything when literally it's just because I disagree with something about United.

Nobody can have a different opinion to a United supporter or they aren't considered "Neutral" or in this case "Bristol" fans.

I'm simply commenting on what I think the dive was.
Blatantly jumping into a player with no contact forcing contact. Don't really give a sh1te who he plays for.

I'm not advocating for diving I'm just making a point again like the Jose piece lads absolutely worked up over these things and blowing them way out of proportion. One of the worst dives of the season and ****? Get out of that :P

I've said it 3 times now that he went down softly but the defender shouldn't have given him the option by turning his back and sticking his foot out. The ref I assume gave it for obstruction or for contact with the leg. Or both
