I don't get time wasting in football at all, it puts more even more pressure during the extra time.It really does.
On the plus side we were at least the equal of Chelsea on the day and the boys showing significantly more fight. Played well at times.
Much more like it but we paid the price for time wasting.
You can do that, I'm also fecking fuming. Where the feck did those 6 minutes come from? Mike Dean is a twat.Ok I concede, but I want to throw my toys out of the pram.....!
He had one nice moment (where he turned Smalling only to have a tame shot) but he seems to take every opportunity to come out of the box. Giroud is limited but he does not hide.To be fair, the stats made morata look amazing. But it’s pretty clear now why he had so few minutes at real compared to others. Knob end drops like a sack of spuds when the wind blows.
Yeah, he pulled 6 minutes out of his arse. Should have been 4 by my reckoningYou can do that, I'm also fecking fuming. Where the feck did those 6 minutes come from? Mike Dean is a twat.
No one's talking about that because it's trendy to bash Jose instead. Someone should be highlighting the state of that decision.Yeah, he pulled 6 minutes out of his arse. Should have been 4 by my reckoning
It was probably correct - half a dozen substitutions, any injuries, plus a couple of minutes time wasting.No one's talking about that because it's trendy to bash Jose instead. Someone should be highlighting the state of that decision.
They might charge him if they can employ a body language expert to decipher what going into the United technical area and fist-pumping right in front of Mourinho means. Won't hold my breath though.Yeah apologies.
Absolute no mark should be punished. But he won't.
Rashford and the subs were the same thing. Be surprised if that took 3 minutesNot really. Rashford was a good three minutes, 30 seconds for each goal, probably a minute or two for the messing around with the subs, plus a minute or two of other stoppages.
No way was 6 minutes an accurate amount of injury time. We got done there, Mike Dean did that for a laugh, he can't just have a normal game, he has to do something to force a conversation about himself and his decisions. fecking loves the attention.It was probably correct - half a dozen substitutions, any injuries, plus a couple of minutes time wasting.
Six minutes is probably right if you account for every stoppage in this game. However, in the real world, one injury for cramp plus six subs has never resulted in six minutes being added in other games, which is why it was bollocks. You only see six minutes in absolutely exceptional cases otherwise, and this was by no means an exceptional game in terms of wasted time.It was probably correct - half a dozen substitutions, any injuries, plus a couple of minutes time wasting.
It's pretty standard that added time for each sub is 30 seconds though, a minute if it takes longer. Plus 30 seconds for goals and cards.Rashford and the subs were the same thing. Be surprised if that took 3 minutes
6 minutes doesn’t happen that often, and there wasn’t much unusual other than maybe an extra minute for the messy sub situationIt's pretty standard that added time for each sub is 30 seconds though, a minute if it takes longer. Plus 30 seconds for goals and cards.
Well 2 minutes is usually the go-to add on time for most games,plus another 4 with the silly substitution kerfuffle and then we get 6.Magic.You can do that, I'm also fecking fuming. Where the feck did those 6 minutes come from? Mike Dean is a twat.
It not.Its awful.1 point does nothing for us or Jose.Yet another game of 2 halfs....Why the hell cant we be on the front foot right from the word go?We were just pathetic in the first half,we were horrendous....But as soon as we got the equaliser we just transformed completely.Our football was just brilliant to watch....Pogba,Martial,Lukaku were just terrific in the 2nd half.Delighted for Martial,Hopefully this will give him the confidence to really get back to his best.
All in all it’s a good point for us.If we keep playing like how we played in the 2nd half we”ll finish top 4 this season...
Need the right manager but also need the right players.Some of the players we have,in all positions,are just bang average.One day we will get an attacking manager and this teams true potential will be unleashed.
I’d have to agree with that. Giroud can be a great impact sub, but as you say , limited. Morata though, dear oh dear. I’d seen very much of him, and when he was linked with us I looked him up and his goal tally compared to the amount of minutes he had was very good. But I guess stats really don’t paint the whole picture. I was honestly a little pissed we got Lukuku and you got morata. What a difference a year makes. Now I think we both bought unwisely .He had one nice moment (where he turned Smalling only to have a tame shot) but he seems to take every opportunity to come out of the box. Giroud is limited but he does not hide.
I'd honestly rather play with a front three of Hazard, Willian and Pedro.
So he's bang on about being shite at both spotting defensive talent and organising a defense?Mourinho was bang on about needing better defenders. Yes he brought two, but they've not peaked at the level required yet and may never do
Just because I said to make the swap didn't mean that I wanted it to happen. At the time I thought Martial was leaving. At his age I would much rather have him stay. I just didn't think Mourinho wanted him...
