Pogba hasn't even been booked has he?

The ref didn't see the choke-hold and there were a couple of cynical shirt pulls that he got away with

[Danish_Pastry]

Any recordings available for Pogbas rugby-handlings??

Oliver is generally outstanding so it's fair to say he has had better games.

I haven't been able to sit down for that match. I'm pretty much standing and watching the game.

Old school style. **** chairs when you have feet.

I think he's been pretty good to be honest. I think it was fair enough him missing the Pogba tussle with Henderson if his eyes were on the ball. Kept the game moving and got most big decisions correct.

Great first half and it's ideally suited for Phil and Daniel to come on as united chase the game. We just need to keep it up.

[danperkins]

Hesitant is right. Too often he seems to end up having to move into less threatening positions once he gets the ball.

can be a bit frustrating alright, maybe a confidence issue.

Has Rooney got his record breaking goal yet? I fear it is set up for him to come on and do it against us.

The scene is set.

Think Oliver has been alright TBH (relatively compared to some performances this season)......Lot of stuff gets missed in the box, such as the Pogba grapple, but he was on top of the handball (in fact, probably only himself and Lovren).
We've got our fair share of FKs as much as they have.

The Lovren yellow was a bit of an awkward one.....He did get the ball, but I think the lunge and reaction afterwards earned him the yellow as much as the ManU players.

Studge is too static for me nowadays Leyton, would take the pressure off their defenxd. Phil yes.

It's was the Phil jones one from the corner that was the shocker. If Firmino had been a foot nearer the post he'd have been straight into it.

But you're never going to see a pen given for that.

Rooney on for carrick

[Daffy Duck]

Rooney on right away

[Fivex]

You don't realise how bad the choke hold is until you see the replay, deserves a retro ban not that it'd happen like.

[Leyton388]

Pogba is the midfield Balotelli.
