Gospodin sudac, nije to u redu što ste učinili.
Did he really say that? Haha your taking a piss now. Zbilja Vas ljubazno molim da još jednom razmislite o vašoj odluci gospon sudac. But we should keep it in english for the rest of the guys here :lol:

Apparently, Fulham were angry that this wasn't given as a penalty (not the Martinez/Mitrovic one that was actually a foul for Martinez).


50-50, could've given it a penalty tbh if he was getting to the ball.
You're never getting a penalty for that.

Was wondering what penalty incident Silva was moaning about. If he's got that wound up about an incident like that to the point he's lost his head got himself sent off which probably lead to the Mitrovic red as well. Then all I can say is he wouldn't have enjoyed being the United manager this season with the stonewall penalties we're denied most weeks.

So what sort of ban is Mitrovic looking at here?

Could be 6 games at least, not only for the initial contact on the ref with his elbow but the afters as well.

I always try to be 100% honest with penalty calls. I think refs are a huge problem and we get some bad calls for and some against. But this is just not a penalty. I thought it might be in real time in the match and was surprised we didnt get a replay but there's just nothing in that.

Fulham fans have followed their manager off the deep end here. Falling hook line and sinker for his ego preservation, not wanting to admit that he failed his team

If that's a penalty then there should be about 10 penalties in every game of football

He looked pretty good to me. Proper centre forward, his tempermant is the only thing that will hold him back from ever going any higher.
Same here. And if Martinez really had him in his pocket he wouldn't have scored. We can argue by who was a fault but defenses in general are at joint effort and CBs need a good understanding and parnership. Should have scored a second too if not for a top save by DDG. 1 1 and down to 10 men in the 70th minute isnt great but still competitive. He let his teammates down

If he added (potentially) to the end then it's probably a yellow card for me as it's 50-50, she could be a slag or she might not be. On the one hand slag on the other saint, hero of the world.

He scored from a set piece that Martinez wasn't marking him on.

He looked tidy, but got no joy from Martinez. He only turned one defender and that was Maguire. Watch it back. He was visibly frustrated with his battle with Martinez, he actually moaned to the ref after he lost the ball once. Martinez followed him everywhere. He won one header against Martinez.

He only scored from a set piece, Martinez wasn't marking him on set pieces.

I agree but McTominay gave away a penalty against Chelsea and it was similar to this. I guess it depends on the ref

Old school defenders would've loved to play against someone like this. So easily wound up.

Shows how lucky we were when Bruno clearly shoved the linesman Vs 'Pool.
Dude- I’m not a Utd fan, and am accused of the exact opposite by some on here. But you cannot possibly compare those two incidents. If Mitrovic’s ban is doubled or tripled he can have no complaints. He lost his sh1t. Bruno was completely different.

Stupid this was, at the point Mitrovic was sent off it was still 1-0 to Fulham with 20-ish minutes left, albeit with Utd having a penalty, so an 80% chance of 1-1. If Utd had missed then I think Fulham had a legitimate chance of seeing the game out, time wasting etc.

Mitrovic single handedly turned a small chance into a non-existent chance. And yet his stupid decision will get less stick from Fulham fans than the referee’s completely legitimate decision.

Of course I'm kidding. :D
Yeah, it was probably tasty, the push didnt help either, he would have gotten red for that only even if he didnt say anything. Crazy feker.

People trying to compare what Bruno did to this are just fecking daft or so anti -Utd you can't take anything they say seriously.

It feels like any time a decision is made that goes in Utd's favour, even when it's fecking blatant, there's this meltdown , people go crazy and it becomes some massive debate.

Marco Silva has always been a jumped up little bellend anyway, short man syndrome Exhibit A.

It's all for social media engagement. 99% of them don't actually believe what they are saying. They're either doing it so United fans engage with them and so that opposition fans agree with them. It's all for click and engagement. Look at the likes of Talksport and Agbonlahor/Darren Bent and their bullshit anti united views, it's all for engagement.

Can you imagine that papers today had that been United players getting sent off for pushing the ref? There would be a massive week long inquest into it, and people would be calling for us to be banned.

Wouldn't it be Taylor that would need to be carried off in a chair in that scenario?
Taylor’s got an iron chin. Mitrovic looks intimidating but he’d be rag dolled by Taylor infront of a packed OT.

Small club syndrome.
They think big clubs get decisions like this all the time but we all know ,in reality, they really don't.
In the eyes of the media, the big clubs are brimming with cheats and all the small clubs are packed with honest players with nothing but integrity.

The other factor being if you’re British or Not British. If you’re British, you’re bullet proof to cheating accusations and even if you did something inexcusably bad, then you’re ‘a good kid really and it’s really out of character I swear!’. If you’re Not British, then the level of scrutiny you’re under is the same level of scrutiny you’re under if you were in public office.

What an absolute idiot this guy is. He completely lost the head over something that wasn't in the least bit controversial. Its as clear a handball as you'll ever see and a red. Pure thug like behavior and deserves every bit of punishment he gets.

Chris woods is also cheaper .
Point being, he isn't good enough. 29, huge cost and average player. What could go wrong . You can't even call that as a cheap punt.
The fact that you list he's 29 tells me everything I need to know about how this debate will go and I shan't be partaking.

You're being very generous to Fulham if you think that is 50/50. That's a classic defender leaning into the attacker at they jump move. There's not really a push in there. Normally that gets praise for being 'clever' defending.

The fact they didn't show it again in the live coverage, or discuss it at HT or FT, just shows how much of a nothing incident it was.

The Martinez/Mitrovic tangle was a bigger shout, but also isn't a penalty. Mitrovic engineers the contact and dives to try and win one, if anything.

I'd say 5 game ban for shoving the ref, they might make an example out of him and go 7 to 9 games instead though. You can't really have that to be honest, it already happens enough at lower league levels, going soft on it in the PL will give nutters an excuse to assault the ref for 'just' a 3 game ban.
Doubt they'll ban him for that long. He doesn't play for United so they won't see any point in making an example of him.

Absolutely! I used to live near London so I have a couple of mates that are West Ham fans and my in-laws are Palace fans. This is the rhetoric they spew with absolutely no basis. I've been to a couple of games with them and they moan about the same things we do but it's this perceived bias for the big teams that is the problem apparently.

Guys come on, leans into him? He literally shoves him out the way with his hands :lol:
