Uh oh. Sideshow bob is going to come on again. How many times do you think Mourinho will do this at the end of games to prove that putting him on wasn't a mistake that cost us a win.

Why has Rojo been booked? Didn't look like he did anything.

Rondon should be off.

It's no surprise United's results have turned around since Herrera and Carrick have been getting games, both very tidy players.

That and your last 10 opponents have been p poor.

Thats a ridiculous challenge

Shamikebab · 17 Dec 2016 at 19:16

That was closer to a red than Ibra's imo.

Massively. Rashford was on a run pretty much on the keeper (though he was a way out) and he was just body checked. Probably the most obvious professional foul I have ever seen.

16 goals halfway through the season isn't bad for an old man.

What was it 8 games without a goal in the middle there?

Admittedly some of it was down to poor service, but he did miss quite a few decent chances at the same time.

Some of his challenges are way over the top though - like today - think he is trying to get New Year off

Martini1991 · 17 Dec 2016 at 20:09

He has 11 in 16 in the PL.
Your next goal scorer has 3.

Shamikebab · 17 Dec 2016 at 20:12

I mean he is our solo striker who plays every game, it's kind of to be expected

He's done very well though

Martini1991 · 17 Dec 2016 at 20:17

I can't think of many 35 year olds with comparable scoring rates in the PL.

bayo000 · 17 Dec 2016 at 20:55

I do wish Zlatan came to PL much sooner. Ideally when we had Ronaldo, Drogba, Van Persie etc.

Defoe?

He's a year younger, but probably the biggest example that comes to mind.

Egon · 17 Dec 2016 at 21:18

Swansea are in deep trouble if we can put 3 past them!

Too true.
We've used up our goal allowance until February though.

grimm · 18 Dec 2016 at 13:57

Had no idea that Wilshere had gone to Bournemouth on loan.

frankel1414 · 18 Dec 2016 at 14:49

I've enjoyed watching Boufal today. Not surprised he's ****** off about being subbed.

NexusK · 18 Dec 2016 at 15:03

McBain · 18 Dec 2016 at 15:12

What a goal from Rodriquez.
