A certain Haaland has missed a few sitters recently also. Would Pep drop him? As long as he is getting in positions to score them and stays fit, he'll hit 15+ easy.

How was our first goal allowed but not Burnley's the other night?? Seems generous from first viewing.

Maddison down with a bad one. That's why we didn't sign him.

Could easily have given a red there. Can't slide like that in this modern day

Crazy game!

Penalty for me!

Good goal tbf

Wtf is the ref smoking?? How is that not a foul and he missed the two obvious penalty shouts.

How the hell does Tomori not get in the England team ahead of Maguire. Nothing was getting past him tonight.

How is that a soft red? Clear as day and he had no complaints when he was walking off.

We are not here to admire stadium tours; we are here to compete.

Was going to mention something similar, but I think it doesn't give Schar the credit as they seem to compliment each other really well.

Can't argue with that.

Disagree with this part. I think most fouls are giving when the defender mistimes the tackle coming across the attackers line and missing the ball. I take your point though. The most recent example that comes to mind is when Jiminez ran through last year against Pope after a dodgy touch. That was more a penalty than yesterday despite him leaning in to make sure there was contact.

Really good finish that tbf.

I would have to agree. There were a few external factors and us over achieving in us getting to 4th last season. In the sense that people say it is harder to defend your title than winning it, it is certainly similar circumstances with us and getting top 4/5 this season. Despite having a better squad, we have more games and more teams will sit back against us more and be happy with a draw at SJP.

Bruno is slowly getting there! A couple of times he turned the midfielder and launched a dangerous attack. I just hope he and Tonali can work together in the long term. Although it was a foul in the first place, he needs to cut out the petulance. On another day and against the top 6 away from home, some incompetent referees might have viewed it as a red.

It was definitely clever play by Gordon and if another top 6 team got that, we would be fuming. We will take it though.

It really showed how much we missed him against Brighton. Burn looks so much better playing alongside him rather than replacing him. Our season could depend on how much he can stay fit and injury free as I'd now say his position is the weakest replacement out on the first 11. Last season it was Trippier but we now have Tino there.

Isak. No way can I see Wilson getting 100 minutes today and starting Tuesday.

I was convinced they were going to score based on recent results and also the earlier kick offs in the league. I will obviously take an ugly 1-0 win.

Bullshit decision!

Man United still lost at least!

Yea but he's great with his feet!
