Van Gaal does make me laugh. Slates officials in a game they should of conceded a penalty in!

Wow I actually think you believe you should of had a pen lol.
You got away with one today no doubt about it.

Yes Ctr think it was a pen, and we were lucky in that aspect, . Do u want Jose as your manager, I would say it will guarantee you the league next year, but with pep at city I am not so sure. At least it will awaken the club, and guarantee world class players, but with pep and Jose in the same city should be interesting, to say the least,

CTR- if that terry decision had been in the opposite box and it he was blocking Blind's shot you know you would have wanted one.
And you say we 'got away with it' yet many people are calling DDG MOTM for 3 outstanding saves.

Should indeed have been a penalty. Clear hand ball. However I can see why the ref didn't give it as it was from very close range.

I was at the game and first impressions were that it was defo a pen, having seen it on tv I think there is very little Blind can do to get his arms out of the way from that range. Not a pen for me.

Not entirely sure why you believe you should have won. Courtois made one great save to deny Martial but apart from that the rest were routine saves. Your only goal in the match was a wonder strike, which 9 times of 10 Lingard probably would have missed and came just after Zouma had been replaced so we weren't fully organised at the back.
On the other hand DDG made 3 great saves, we had a penalty appeal turned down (probably rightly, although they are given) and I'm almost 100% sure that if there was another 5mins or so we would have gone on to beat you.
Stats wise; possession was pretty much 50-50, you had one more shot than us, passing completion % was pretty much the same for both and in fact we were the only side to create a 'clear cut' opporunity.
Overall a point was a pretty fair result.
