The problem stems from Mourinho.

Could you imagine working for that guy?

This one is 100% on the players. I've had a lot of disagreements with tactical decisions Jose has made but he did nothing wrong tonight, he put a strong team out and they let him down.

I'm not sure. I did see him not send Pogba off for a dangerous challenge and award you a free-kick that you scored from for a dive.

Well I was hoping for bristol to give a good account of themselves, so on the whole I'm pretty pleased

BaZ87 · 20 Dec 2017 at 22:12

City's first goal was a cracking strike. I genuinely shouted don't shoot as he's run through - the only way he's scoring is if he puts it exactly where he did.

the ref was a joke gave the match to bristol also romero was ****

Gave the match? They were the better side throughout, better quality, played the better football, played with more desire, more passion..... come on.

Jose: "They were a bit lucky"

My god, i'm speechless.

how many times were we fouled and ref was asleep

Best team won, yet again felt as though we were on the back foot a lot and not out of second gear. It's a bit tedious this last month or so.

He's meaning the shots that hit the bar tbf, if those go in then the game is pretty much over.

I find a lot of fans of premier league teams get used to the physical side of things in the prem and dont agree with how lower league sides battle... Ive always found premier league games/refs to be very soft

They would have needed to be on target for them to have gone in though.

Not many that spring to mind? You mean how many times were Bristol City stronger/more physical and United players just crumbled looking for a foul, that wasn't a foul? Yeah quite a few.

Rashford is a prime example, needs to get to the gym, he's weak as ****.

The first was a scaley deflection so wasn't remotely lucky, the second shot wasn't accurate enough. IMO you make your own luck, United deserved those chances to come off the woodwork based on their performance.

battle by pushing people off the ball when they are running into postion...

speaking of rashford did you see him getting pushed while he was running with out the ball and the ref played on

Again, not that I recall. As above, he probably got a nudge that should've never sent him over and he fell over like a fairy looking for a foul. He's not even close to being strong enough.

I didn't think the ref had a particularly poor game and to try and blame that result on the ref rather than the incredibly poor performance from the United players is a bit of a stretch.

I didnt see pushing tbh... Both teams were physical and city wanted it more

Before people reply too seriously to stig they need to realise that in his eyes every challenge on a Utd player is a foul and Utd have never fouled the opposition. This is a standard stig reaction.

Arsenal vs Chelsea
Man C vs Bristol C

Imagine how his brain would implode if City were wearing boots made by Ferrari.
