Nothing weird at all. He tries to do him

Don't think that was accidental from Bailly.

Last thing I'll say about it; singing a song your own player doesn't want sung is beyond idiotic.

I very much doubt that is the case. Itll be more the club asking him.

Lemina looks a good player.

Pogbalite.

He turned around and suddenly had to jump over Long. Clearly nothing he could do.

MagicIRL

Davies definitely the next one to make the move from Southampton to Liverpool.

Very tidy player.

Seriously?

Yellow for Young for that? This ref is a clown.

Duck off ref soft as duck that

Jayop

Awful. United fans just condoning alcohol abuse with that best chant.

Stupid autocorrect

Tom.D.BJJ

No, seriously. What's the chant and why is it racist?

Or alternatively, we could just, you know, take it at face value and believe what his statement says? Why are people trying to do mental gymnastics for this chant? He doesn't like it, bin it off. Its a ****e chant anyway.

It's about his schlong being massive.

The kick it out campaign the player and utd as club have asked for it not to be sung because of the racial connotations.

It's been an impressive first half from Utd

I love the fact that this team doesn't require massive amounts of possession and we are more clinical with our chances

Liam O

Good thing Agent Coulsen is reporting from the stands to confirm 100% that the words are actually the same and haven't been changed.

Do u think it's racist or you just repeat everything you hear?

The people who are calling the chant racist are being racist The chant never mentions race at all, so why are people implying its racist just because it says he has a big bellend? are they implying something?

Comfortable enough first half

Southampton will have to change it up at half time,try and get someone closer to Long if they are going to get anything

I long for the days when you could call a player a Serbian murderer and no one blinked an eye lid.

:pac:

Anything to say about the first half performance for Utd?

RobbingBandit

Valencia in on long was very reminiscent of what he did during summer after Mata had been hacked, just not as rough this time round, he looks after the team if the opposition gets overly excited. Great man to have.

All teams have set up similarly against us this season and it hasn't really worked. Actually looking forward to our first game against a team that comes out against us to see how we get on.

Lol, a young man early 20's having fans sing a song about the size of his penis... He is going to be offended by that???

No mental gymnastics needed.

It is a bit crap but to suggest those singing it should be told not to because of racism is horsesh!t.

I know you probably follow Utd twitter more than me, but this is all I can find:-

Romelu: "Great backing since I joined #MUFC. Fans have meant well with their songs but let’s move on together. #RespectEachOther"

Seems to be nothing on his own twitter about it.

Throw me the links when you have a second ( appreciate you are watching the match now )

I would laugh if the chant has been changed to simply add the words "doesn't have" in place of "has", in relation to his appendage. Would be quite Python-esque. Where would the people who feel compelled to be offended on his behalf stand then?

The racism aspect comes from the fact it's using a racist stereotype as the foundation for the chant. Would they be singing about his dick size I got e was white?

It feels weird that an Anti-racism group and the player himself has come out and said "please stop", and a load of white men go "nah"....

I was going to say, ask him about Suarez. Joke of a club.

As it is, its a crap chant. The player doesn't like it. I expect it will drop off when the fans come up with something better. If Lukaku keeps scoring goals like he has the guy is going to finish his career as a United legend.

Mr.Crinklewood

Mr.Crinklewood must be a racist.

Fairly boring game tbf but comfortable enough. De Gea hasn't been troubled at all

MagicIRL

Romelu Big Bollix has scored 8 in 8. Lethal.

user2011

All our joy coming down their right. Look forward to subs so we can attack both sides some more goals me thinks.

Exactly. If the anti-racist group and the player himself say that they don't think it's cool, what harm is it to just stop?

RobbingBandit

I'd guess it's regular or even season ticket holders making the chant as it's at every match for the last while now, it's all in jest and if it were about an opponent then the racist card could be played but it's really just football fans being scummy in the funny way football fans always have been, ooh aah Paul McGrath being the obvious one that comes to mind for me.

S.M.B.

"I'll sing a song about a black man's big dick if I want to!"

Can't believe this is even a conversation that's still happening.....

Only turned on the game now. Sounds like it's been a positive 45 minutes without being spectacular.

A second goal for Utd early on would be nice
