Not many managers around to replace him. Not sure who they could turn to. Alonso will be too soon.

This has come out of the blue.
Has something happened? He signed a new contract until 2026.

Been watching Afcon. What stood us how competent the officials are and how well managed VAR is. How the fuck do officials in the PL get it wrong?

If the shoe was on the other foot, they would be stonewall in your world.

Didn’t United have 3-4 players missing yesterday and have they not been without a stable back 4 and midfield all season? Martinez, Casemiro, Shaw, Eriksen, Maguire, Mainoo have been out long term this season.
How quickly does the narrative change when certain other clubs have injuries. How many times has it been mentioned Spurs have been without a number of players pre and post match. The excuses were already out.
Could be worse, we could become Spurs fans and moan about the 2 stonewall penalties United should have got this season for the next decade, but we move on and have got better things to do.

Pathetic 2nd half performance. Only bonus was Martinez and Cas are back.

Noone has hacked my account.
1 of the reasons why I have Van Dijk as 1 of the best CBs ever and in my top 5 greatest PL players is what he brought to Liverpool.
Liverpool were averaging 75 points and he arrived and they were instantly competing against City, who set the benchmark of 95 points+ to win the league. No CB or player has added that to a club. City were blessed with many quality players. So were Liverpool with Mane and Salah, but Van Dijk took them to a different level where he gave them an extra 20+ points. Without him, City would have ran away with league titles every season, that’s how good Van Dijk is and was during those seasons.
Agree about longevity, Van Dijk peaked fairly late in his career, but no CB can close to him during his peak years.

Ally McCoist must be drunk. Newcastle denied a stonewall penalty there.

Agree both.
I don’t think there’s bias from refs towards certain teams, unless your refereeing in the Saudi pro league or UAE pro league and on the City and Newcastle owners payroll:)
Joking aside, in my opinion there isn’t an excuse to make so many mistakes and be inconsistent, especially when you have something in place to help you out.
If they can get it right at international level during major tournaments, why can’t they in the PL. All VAR has done is open a can of worms with the way it has been implemented by our refs.

But wasn’t VAR job to remove these inconsistent call. I reckon refereeing has got a lot worse since VAR has come in.
Dalot is another example, he was booked twice with a space of 10 seconds for dissent. Which is fair enough, the same game, Nunes kicked the ball away after he was given a yellow for fouling Evans, sarcastically clapped the ref and no 2nd yellow. I have seen other games where players have reacted the same, yet nothing given.
Refs with the support and technology in place, should not be getting these calls wrong.

Mikus-
The main issue I have is I have seen those incidents not given. It is just inconsistency.
Here is another example
The same bloke said this wasn’t given because it was too close though https://t.co/WS3U0b6O1P pic.twitter.com/qBttYWGGxo

It is not just different refs having different opinions. It is also the inconsistent of the same ref awarding 1 incident and turning a blind eye to the exact same incident weeks later.
If it was a 1 off then fair enough. But it is regularly happening.

After watching the Jota penalty again. I find it baffling how even with technology in place, that isn’t considered simulation.
Almost every single person who has contributed to this thread has said it wasn’t a penalty. Yet officials some how believe it was. That is why I believe corruption is involved.
Not just going by yesterdays incident, but many others throughout the years since VAR has been in place. English football is only where controversy seems to be attached to it.

Sancho rumoured to be heading back to Dortmund on loan
Reguilon back to Spurs
Van De Beek to Frankfurt confirmed.
Looks like United are trimming their squad.

The game is corrupt gents.
It is bizarre that even with support and technology in place, the officials are no better compared to when they didn’t have the technology and support.
Something just seems off about it, because we are still having these discussions about poor officiating.
Would not be surprised if some of these refs are spot fixing.

Since Cameron, we have had a bunch of assholes in charge who threw each other under the bus and didn’t have any cohesion to help the country.
Problem is, that dickhead in charge of labour is no better, so there isn’t many decent alternatives.
Brexit would have been done well, if people actually stuck together. It became party politics within all the political parties for years, which resulted in a big mess and no direction which helped the general public.

F
It will take years to root out the problems and rebuild. It is the same old story, get in the CL, players think that is a triumph, stop playing for the manager, get the manager the sack, get a new manager in, have a good 1st season with him, get in the CL, another triumph for the players, stop playing for the manager, get him sacked and start all over again.

Shocking display and this was all down to the manager.
Why bring on McTominay who is not a holding midfielder for Mainoo and completely disrupt the balance.
Why play Gernacho on the left when he had the best game of his United career on the right.
Understand injuries can change things, but why not try a left footed player like Antony on the left or play Rashford there and give a youth player a chance as a striker._____________________________

Spurs have missed Madison more than anyone. The link between defence and attack.
United should have bought him rather than Mount.
