Nah, some refs bottle it by giving a yellow and then waiting to be asked by VAR if they need to change it. I think that’s the only other option from the straight red.

Just showed one of his ‘mistakes’ on MOTD and it was actually Murphy getting blocked off by a defender that meant the pass didn’t work. Not always easy to read that stuff live.

Leno is quietly a ridiculously consistent player. Seems like he’s been keeping in the PL every game for decades

Feel like we had the most impressive result today. Guess Fulham beating Chelsea is close.

Blood is in the water, big chance to get a serious win.

Yeah, but even this way of thinking is missing the main point. The kid was incredibly rated and an amazing signing. Whether he comes into the team in month X or month X+5 makes very little difference. He’ll be class for us for years and always was going to be.

I don’t think it was always obvious that Tonali would play deepest. From what I understand of his career so far he’s been very much box-to-box. And even though people constantly complain about it, Bruno is also very good as the central player. It’s possible that some experimentation was needed to get it right.

Thought he was top today, looked confident and determined to use his unpredictability and intelligence. Great strike as well of course.

Quite impressive to be wrong on this many levels.

Thought it was going wide but only seen one replay.

Playing without Garnacho/Rashford/Antony just means they offer basically nothing in attack. Even though those players aren’t anything special anyway.

Shouldn’t it have been an OG anyway? Since Bruno handled it accidentally, but he wasn’t the goal scorer because deflected in off Digne.

They couldn’t get relegated I guess.

Massive credit has to go to manager and club for how they supported him and looked at the long-term. Can easily see a situation where he never plays for us again.

Isn’t his history with us mostly brilliant? I’m very confused.

How come Cunha hasn’t been banned?

Thought they brought Rogers off when he was just starting to trouble us.

Sorry?

Howe… in?

Yeah, it was a few consecutive corners rather than a long period of possession or anything.

Think today was the quietest I’ve ever heard the ground. Maybe because I was sitting further away from the corner than usual. Very long periods of complete silence.

I don’t remember any periods of domination for them. Maybe a couple of mistakes from us but we were on top throughout.

Could he get more games for that?

Feed these lads into the Newcastle mincer.

Having seen the replay once I thought the red was pretty harsh. But also looks like the deflection off Bruno was going wide so that goal should’ve been given as an OG. Anyway we played them off the park.
