      Nil, one of the issues are that they use refs and officials from all over Europe, obviously individual leagues would see things differently so they have tried to introduce something for the CL where there is a certain threshold for handball. Apparently the threshold is quite low, and a lot lower than in the PL. If you are asking refs to use a threshold which is not their normal one then things will happen like last night, but every mistake is making VAR look to be more and more of a shambles.

      I still think the officials don’t realise fans just want consistency.

          Of course I’m lurking, you lot are highly amusing, brightens up my otherwise dull day…

          Joking aside, they both looked very similair to me (whether you like it or not), both attacking players had nothing else going, saw a limb not stuck to a body, chipped it towards it… both instances were ball to hand, not hand to ball, both instances did not deny a clear goal scoring opportunity, both resulted in a free goal…

              Maybe, maybe not, but that still doesn’t change nor won’t change my opinions on peno’s when the player is clearly “playing” for it…

                United doing well and now 3-1 up. It will all depend on the game with Bayern.
                Galatasary are full of players slightly over the hill but still good, if that makes sense.
                Few silly fouls but nothing really.

                  Crazy match, thoroughly entertaining but another goalkeeping mistake has cost us.

                  Should have won but we can’t buy a win in Europe.

                    Great game. Utd finished much stronger at the end. They be kicking themselves as the opposition are terrible. They can’t defend. Utd should have buried them. Thought maguire was very good

                    That’s over 30 goals that keeper had conceded already this season. The wall for the 2nd goal is just desperate.

                          I feel for Onana. Another awful mistake from him which has potentially cost us not only the match but qualification to the next round too. His confidence seemed to have been recovering before last night.

                            Ed I think you missed the “s” off the end of mistake.1st and 3rd his positioning were dreadful, nowhere near what youd expect from a top keeper. This attribute is what separates great keepers from the rest and often why the best don’t make great YouTube highlight reels! They just are so often in the right place at the right time. Onana, well I’m not sure where he was covering for the first and third was starting too central and beaten at his near post.

                            Don’t think anything needs to be said about the 2nd, the media are having a field day.

                              His confidence had grew after the pen save v Copenhagen and he had made some very good saves but he conceded a far to many goals .

                              It’s still early days for him. Took de gea a while to find his feet. Utd really be kicking themselves as they were the much fitter team at the end and had some great chances. It was a great gane

                                Can’t disagree Threeps. I actually missed the first goal. Hate these early kickoffs but yeah you’re right. I still think he’ll come good, Onana. Utd seems to bea place where a keeper’s career is made or broken. De Gea came through it, as Sean said. Difficult to say if Onana will or not.

                                  Onana=Barthes?
                                  Just watched the highlights. United had so many chances and keeper apart, I thought they deserved to win.
                                  Also I don’t think his distribution is anything special.
                                  Perhaps he’ll improve.

                                    Really delighted for us tonight to top the group with a win. Enjoying this term actually being in Europa. Through to the last 16. Can field too a more weakened team in our next game. Back to the PL πŸ™‚

                                      The one good thing about the Europa is players get a decent run every 2bd week. I’ve enjoyed it and would love to win it

                                      I thought you played a lot more games? Wr don’t play until march now after our final game

                                        Yeah Sean mate, that’s the one Klopp hasn’t won with us and I’d love him to win it.

                                        Always hold memories of a younger Klopp and those facial expressions he used to make playfully. That was when we still had Lovren, Lallana, Lucas, and Sakho.

                                        Plus, that Dortmund Semi-final. Thursday seem like for us now. Well happy for the Reds. Good luck the the other Brit teams in this as well. Not a bad comp πŸ™‚

                                          With the final in Dublin, can you imagine the scenes if Utd drop into the EL and both them and Liverpool meet in the final?! Don’t think it will happen,think Utd will be having midweeks off very soon, but what an atmosphere that would be!

                                            Haha, interesting 3ps. I’m actually wanting the opposite and wanting United to do well so they can meet City in one of the rounds and surprisingly beat them. I didn’t think I’d be in a state of mind even saying this lol πŸ˜€
