He is incredible at using his body to protect the ball. Especially using his arse to hold off opponents. Unique talent.

Here is the law:

A goalkeeper is considered to be in control of the ball when:
• the ball is between the hands or between the hand and any surface (e.g. ground, own body) or by touching it with any part of the hands or arms except if the ball rebounds from the goalkeeper or the goalkeeper has made a save
• holding the ball in the outstretched open hand
• bouncing it on the ground or throwing it in the air

God I really hate Kaspar Schmeichel so that’s good shit.

what exactly is it that Soyuncu does well that he’s so highly rated on here?

Rangnick isn't all that good a manager honestly. I mean he's good, but he's not a top top coach. And neither particularly cares about being a coach for that matter

Said this before, but it's the consultancy gig that's the real big deal for Mancunians Together. If they give him the keys to the kingdom he's gonna bring them back to the top. Starting from next year. This year they'll finish 5th, behind Spurs. Man i can't believe they allowed Conte to go to spurs :lol:
Rangnick is 100 times better than Ole, that’s the point.

Leicester is so poor defending dead ball situations. Rodgers can't coach a defense.

The first part is the reason why I feel we wouldn't have wanted to sign Conte.

We tried a short term solution before, who was expected to bring is titles in the short term. While he certainly did give us a title in the short term and had our best player season since Fergie, it became bad quickly and after that we had to reset.

Ragnick is someone who presents a longer term solution. Someone who, when done with his 2 year consultancy, can lay a platform for us to be successful in the long term rather than the shirt term with Conte.

NBCSN Reporting that the goal, by law, should have been given since the "one hand on top = control" portion does not apply if it is a rebound off the keeper making a save.
Think NBCSN are wrong here.

The "except" applies only to phrase after the "or by touching".
It's saying that a save with hands does not give the keeper control.

Don't see why Conte should be a short term solution at manchester united. The club that still wants to give full power to the manager and has near unlimited money

But allright. Missing out on CL would set Rangnick back a couple years though...

Rodger's job must be hanging by a thread at this point. Leicester are awful.

McGinn should have 4 assists today. Put it on a plate for both Watkins and Ramsey who both missed sitters.

I was one of those earlier in the season saying this was a minor blip and he could do a job here (although bottom of the list). Boy was I completely wrong!

I can't believe so many wanted Rodgers not long ago, just shows the bad state we were in I guess. Thank feck he will be nowhere near us.

Comical dive, should be booked for that. Comical counter attack.
Don't think it was a dive, there was contact but not enough for a pen for me.

I don’t watch a lot of Villa but surely he’s not like this in every game?

He has absolutely bossed this game.

He is yes, not quite this good but he’s usually one of the best on the pitch.

People were calling me crazy when I said we should buy him for midfield.
