Well if they slowed it down to 1/4 speed it might look horrific and intentional so who knows. Seems to be how they decide these things.
Rashford has been junk today. Another game where he is constantly trying to beat players from a standstill and losing the ball. Another game where he is always looking for goal instead of a teammate.

Watching Fernandes reminds me of Gerrard, completely different players but he's carrying this team as much as Gerrard did for us at times. Stick a decent striker ahead of Fernandes and United become a far greater threat.

If United finish 2nd this season it'll be for the same reason as when they came 2nd under Jose, everyone below City is hopeless for varying reasons this year!

Wow, keeper got to that.
Still arsenal though
Regarding all the comments on the Maguire penalty incident and why they bothered to review it when he was offside. I'm pretty sure that the reason why they ignored the offside is because John Moss decided that Maguire hadn't become active by the point the challenge happened. A player is only offside once they've either played the ball or interfered with an opponent - he clearly doesn't play the ball but whether he interfered the opponent is subjective. I'm sure most people would argue that he did, forcing the West Brom player to make a challenge for the ball but Moss decided he didn't.

Not good today, but still it ends up being VAR that robs us of a victory. First goal should never have stood. Same as Sheffiled United game.

Don't agree. Lindelof needs to be stronger. Maguire also played everyone onside being so deep. Also we had 88+ minutes after that to sort it and never really looked like doing so. Another tepid performance from a team poorly setup and managed.

Maguire did the same against the Everton equaliser. Played everyone on. Ole needs to get a decent defensive coach in for next season because we are just hopeless. Constantly conceding early goals.
We were playing WBA and they had the better chances in the game. They are 2nd bottom and they created better chances than us. We are playing well below the standard the quality of players we have would allow us to. Martial is still be played despite being out of form and unwilling to work for the team for months. Rashford seems to think he is the messiah and plays only for himself at the moment. There have been far far too many awful performances lately. Yes the first goal should have been disallowed but its WBA for christs sake. We should be smashing them. Its not like they played out of their skins. They just defended well and caught us on the break a few times.
