I thought AWB was man of the match Marcus and Jason great pens. When does Pawson pick his wages up from Brighton.
The pens taken were all brilliant except March's. Not like Sanchez saved any of them.Thank god for that
Dave on penalties is a problem…what the feck was that. Absolutely useless we got lucky
Can we get a gif of the winning pen? @GifLord
With the result, im ecstatic but not gonna lie and say we played well, which is bullshitFeck sake
are you even a little happy?
Nah. Just look at his shootout record since 2012. Abysmal.Ah yes, penalties. Where De Gea gets a load more stick than any other keeper. I’m not De Geas number one fan but the amount of stick he gets during penalties is ridiculous!
Aside from that, nice to win a shootout!
You haven’t considered the season as a whole the injuries and the game on Thursday. We actually defended incredibly well for 120 mins and restricted them to very few chances.With the result, im ecstatic but not gonna lie and say we played well, which is bullshit
Isn't it like 39 out of the last 40 have gone in? Players are so confident they don't even miss, until tonight. How anyone can defend his penalty play is beyond me.Nah. Just look at his shootout record since 2012. Abysmal.
He really is. Maguire turns the poor lad into a gibbering wreck.Lindelöf is pretty decent, isn't he
The way he just flopped to the same side for the majority of the pens really wound me up.Isn't it like 39 out of the last 40 have gone in? Players are so confident they don't even miss, until tonight. How anyone can defend his penalty play is beyond me.
Weren't wrong though, were they?Match day thread full of people having a go at De Gea for not saving penalties. Happens every shootout.
Even when we won the shootout, some people in there, instead of celebrating, were posting that we needed someone to miss as De Gea wasn’t going to save.
And yet we beat a team that most reckoned were going to batter us. Not bad with 7 playersWorrying how bereft of form we are up front. Martial finished as a footballer, Rashford looks injured, Sancho scared of his own shadow and Antony with no end product.
But at least we know that if we keep slabhead out of the side we'll not shit the bed at the back quite so much. Shame he'll probably be back in vs Spurs
Can’t believe we beat Brazil 70 today. I still remember the mass shitting on United when Brighton were outplaying *checks notes * Chelsea last weekAnd yet we beat a team that most reckoned were going to batter us. Not bad with 7 players
Now that’s a quote no sane Man Utd fan would have said 6 months ago.AWB is the best defensive full-back in the world no doubt, just hope he can improve even more in the attacking side.
Same. Shame it had to be them. Ah well. On we go!!amazing pens.
De Zerbi is doing a fantastic job with Brighton. I really like them
Pundits have handed City the treble already. In 1977, Liverpool got the same treatment from the press. In 1999, they were all waiting for us to fail. They were begging Arsenal to win the league and it was all over after Juve got a 1-1 draw at our place. Now 1977 Liverpool were, in many respects, as good as 2023 City and we beat them. It's a one-off game and a final to boot. We will win.He was shocking... made Lawro seem cheerful.
Not the greatest match but at least we have a sat in denying City a treble and winning another trophy. Good season all things considered. No chance we are messing up top 4 now.
Honestly think the City owners paid him to make sure Brighton got through so they have a better chance at the Treble before they are sent down.Quite right too. He's another waste of space that shouldn't be allowed to referee a primary school game.
Bailly does too funnily enough. Not a helpful habit on Lindelof's part even if i can kind of understand itHe really is. Maguire turns the poor lad into a gibbering wreck.
There should be an inquiry into Pawson's handling of the game. Ray Charles would have done a better job. We used to pride ourselves on the quality of our referees but man, the current crop are diabolical. Nevertheless, I had my 1968 blue replica shirt on today and we tend not to lose when I wear it, so Pawson notwithstanding, let's enjoy the win.Maybe Pawson's blatant cheating fired up our players.
We didn't play well but we fought hard and that's all you can hope for in games like this. They're often ugly affairs.
They would rather have Brighton than us. Now let's hope the Gooners pick themselves up and get something.Honestly think the City owners paid him to make sure Brighton got through so they have a better chance at the Treble before they are sent down.
Yes agree with you, but just taking the game itself we were 2nd best thats all I am saying. They had a week, we had 3 days. We need a big overall in the summer and hopefully new owners will accomplish what TH asks for.You haven’t considered the season as a whole the injuries and the game on Thursday. We actually defended incredibly well for 120 mins and restricted them to very few chances.
this game actually showed me a lot about the team.
Hear, hear. Feck PepThey would rather have Brighton than us. Now let's hope the Gooners pick themselves up and get something.
