Diving going unpunished

If Jesus goes down three times he'll have to be crucified.

Fed up of arguing about penalties in the Liverpool thread, but I thought that looked a penalty on first and second viewings. Silly to hang a leg out like that either way.

Wait until he goes for the cross and gets nailed.

I have never hated a ref as much as Oliver. Overly officious when it's easy to be and cowardly when it isn't.

God, thierry henry is awful. I have to mute when he starts his incoherent 'analysis'

Toobz

RW Martial is so bad, why was he put there.

Esse85

I'm shocked how much time de bruyne is getting on the ball.

Think Jesus might have deserved a yellow there, fine challenge by Kompany if a little on the agressive side.

no. Tackles are supposed to be aggressive, it was a super tackle, and im a united fan

PhlegmyMoses

Any other City defender in there and it's one nil. Walker has some pace.

I think it was a super tackle too and i hate seeing ones like that going punished, which sometimes they do because of the agressiveness. That was all I meant.

It's crazy how quick he is. He's well built and at first look you wouldn't expect that type of acceleration

Bridge93

Will never get how pro footballers have such incredibly poor efforts like Otamendis when under no pressure at all. It's literally your job to kick the ball well

ah ok, same, used to play center back and i used to go through the ball and anything after that, refs now days see a jersey touch another jersey and its a yellow. annoys the **** out of me.

PhlegmyMoses

Rojo is an idiot, but you have to ask why is Oliver only speaking to him and not Sterling after they both argue with one another? Oliver makes things worse always.

Bridge93

That looked extremely painful

Henry talking ****e again

He's brutal, adds nothing and paid more than Neville & Carragher iirc

PhlegmyMoses

That should be second yellow to Jesus. Hasn't got one. Jesus ****ing Christ.

deaddonkey15

Should be yellow for Jesus there. Wouldn't expect much from Michael Oliver though.

Rossi IRL

That is a clear yellow for Jesus but Oliver bottles it

alchemist33

Jesus immune from yellows today

tayto lover

United haven't had a shot on goal yet. City had 6 and 78% possession but that counts for nothing really.

Jesus no yellow
Oliver is useless

How is Jesus not booked yet!!!

Jesus like most obvious yellow ever

I stuck it on mute, 9 times out of 10 he's talking rot

Esse85

City are so quick to press when they lose the ball, its very impressive to watch.

Bridge93

Jesus has been crap. City a second too slow to get their shots away

wanderer100

No one in our midfield can carry the ball out without hoofing. Missing Pogba

super_furry

This game is like a repeat of the Merseyside derby. Very similar pattern of play.

Father Hernandez

United panicking everytime they have the ball, hoofing it up the pitch, it's awful to watch

At home and an attacking team out, feel bad for Lukaku, getting nothing

That goal was coming

Same time on the goal too. Now watch United get a dodgy second-half peno.

Missing our best player
He's crucial in midfield. Suffering because of it

Neamhshuntasach

Well deserved lead. Only one team has bothered to play today and they've been rewarded for it.

ctrl-alt-delete

Might have been offside if Young had moved, strange position he took up for that corner.

martyos121

Brilliant reaction from Silva, anti-football from United punished at last. Might see them attack a bit now perhaps.

Mars Bar

****e

wanderer100

No surprise

We're bottling it big time here

Turtyturd

Great finish.

Men against boys so far.

Still think Utd will get something. They will need to change tactics though

GreNoLi

Deserved really, united poor.

Deserved lead tbf
Disappointing to conceed that from a corner however

Skylinehead

Really poor defending, compounded by the farcical calls for offside (or was it for a foul?)

ctrl-alt-delete

Totally out of character from KDB there.

sligeach

Comical defending and thoroughly deserved lead for City.

Skylinehead

de Bruyne, that was dire.

Rekop dog

Good goal for the game. Let's see how United go at it now. Positive response so far
