we are playing at walking pace in their half apart from odd momentAre you not watching the match? They are playing with urgency. Just it’s hard to run anywhere forward when you’ve a 10 man wall in front of you.

FFS take the red tinted glasses offNever a pen in my opinion. Not a single person would let that ball hit them in the face.
NoHow is that inexplicable? You have a rocket flying straight at your head and your brain will tell you to get it the feck away from your head in a reflex. And no you don’t have hindsight or a minute to think it through and weigh up whether it’s not better to just take the hit, it all happens in a miili second.
It's pretty rare, I do remember him saving 1 from Baines and I'm sure there was another.Did De Gea ever save a penalty in his career?
You are pathetic.Of course I am happy if that we will lead to kicking that InstaLady off the club and having a team for next season without ladies.
Yeah against RVP the season before he signed for us can’t remember any othersDid De Gea ever save a penalty in his career?
Ok boomerYeah give him more of your money for dancing on the grass hahaha
Vidic wasn't afraid to get his head kicked off by Giroud when he slide tackled with his head.Should he just take it in the face and risk injury ?
The reaction was instinctive. Has nothing to do with being this or that.Which is why we have not been playing professional football at that level for more than a decade
His head was virtually already out of the way of it. The play acting was sad.It's a natural human instinct though. Would you rather he takes that in the face, breaks his nose ( or worse) and is out for a while.
When it mattered most.Yes. Saved one against Van Persie in the 8-2
Aside from the brain fart I thought he had been ok, not great but better than most (not saying much)Would honestly take Pogba off for that and put on Fred. Not like he's done anything this half for us anyway
Yeah, feck off mate.Of course I am happy if that we will lead to kicking that InstaLady off the club and having a team for next season without ladies.
I don't get this. Did he forget there are cameras, replays and VAR?thats a pen and then blatantly lies about being hit in the face, shocking from Pogba
Was who not offside?Were they not offside for the shot?
if you have the time to raise your hand to protect your head, You will have the time to move your freaking head away.All these brave posters would have just let that ball hit in their face.....
Protecting your face is a natural reaction to having a ball coming towards it
I think we've dominated the game bar maybe a 5 minute spell after the water break. We've not managed to get through their wall though and our tempo is too low.Legs have gone just like last season. Pressure getting to them too.
Ah well....
Im being sarcastic.He was fuming, I don't blame him, I am with that
Yes, he should take the ball to his head like is normal in a wall. fecking come on, it was hardly gonna knock his block off. Pathetic reaction from PP.I dont understand the rule, I thought if your hands were blocking your body such as face and privates it was fine.
What is he supposed to do, just take a ball going about 80 to his face???
Would you take that shot in the face?Jesus. It's a football. Not Mike Tyson.
TFM has been genuinely awful. Every decision has been the wrong one so far.Two bang average full backs playing
Neither wide player great at taking men on, coupled with the full backs being given free time to do whatever they want means there's not much space.
It's why two top full backs and two top wide players are crucial to modern teams.
An intentional one too. Protect his face or not.It's handball.
End of discussion.
No, that's why you head it, rather than let it smack you in the face.Is he supposed to let that hit him in the face?
So if your hands get hit in a free kick wall while they're protecting your balls, you're content that you should be penalised?It always is. I’m not a moaner here and I have no doubt we’ll win the game, but defending your face is not a permissible basis to deliberately block the flight of the ball.
