Two wrongs don't make a right but mocking people dying in a tragedy is a different form of low 

Oh no no, that's not what I'm trying to say! Not at all! I was just adding to the issues that were at the game.

Even at the FanFest there were about 6 United fans chanting "murderers" at the one Liverpool fan that got to be on stage. I was trying to get them called out right away for it. Not at all trying to condone any negative behavior

Match of the Day 2 only looking at the Newcastle penalty shout and neither of Uniteds feels very much like them avoiding having to say "that was a penalty" and contradicting Shearers dumb tweet.

A very large boy trying his best.

I feel bad for him. Big price tag. New league. Haaland moving to the same league for his new teams direct rivals and inevitable comparisons.

I think he's generally been pretty good and might be a bit more of a project than people expected. He was so very close to setting up Trent and probably should have set up Salah for a second.

Probably had more impact on game than Haaland did

I think if he'd not have been sent off against Palace he'd have maybe half a dozen goals already. 

[Hobo]

He's only two short of that now!

[Tigerstyle]

Yeah to be fair, it's not the worst start given the amount of minutes he's had on the pitch. But people compare him to City and Haaland and its not a fair comparison.

[DavidMarrio]

 

 

Funny that. How City are accussing Klopp of Xenophobia and saying that caused issues yet can't make any public statement about their own fans doing.

Genuinely feels like the ball has been in play for 26 of the 76mins so far. So stop-start.

46mins ball in play apparently, 52mins total with all time added.

Bring in 30min halves with the clock stopping asap.

[Colly]

Get off my bandwagon.

[The Lusophone]

Bring in 40 minute halves with the clock stopping. I want more football not less.

[Baddar]

Wasn't the average in the PL last season 50-something minutes anyway? So even two 30 minute halves would give us more than we're getting currently.

[Colly]

Yeah, 30 minutes would work perfectly, 40 and you'd be missing your tea by the time you got home. That 46 sounds bad but there have been loads less even this season.

Speaking of stoppages:

 

[METALMAN]

Colly is being paid by Big Bookie to lobby for the clock stopping so there can be ad breaks during the game.

[Colly]

I firmly refute any allegations that Ray Winstone's massive Gamesmaster head has any influence on me.

[Colly]

Our refs from Hartlepool tonight. Not sure what that means in terms of allegiance but I could easily give him a lift home.

[Baddar]

You could offer, but a bit awkward if you're calling him a c**t by half time.

[Colly]

With todays petrol prices I'd still accept.

[Twist]

Man, if only Grealish could play like Miggy, eh?

[Szumi]

Nunez is amazing at stretching defenses with running in behind, pressing, and pretty good at heading the ball (even though pretty sure that goal was a mishit/lucky header - I will take it though!). Still think he's got plenty of work to do on finishing with his feet, and if the ball is at his feet. But the more he scores, the best that confidence will be. You can already see it tonight.

[stokeriño]

Dunno if it's just a bad night for my Internet, but I've watched streams on Sky, BT, and [other] that have all been faultless this season... Tonight, Amazon is struggling like hell to keep up.

[DavidMarrio]

I always find the Prime games are hit and miss and out of sync. I got it on the app on the TV and that was about 3 minutes behind the app on the Sky box

[Baddar]

May well regret this later but we haven't played this well in ages. Control and dominance from the start. Excellent.
