Because they are shit. Especially Taylor.I said that to my dad at the time
It's soft, but if he's blown for advantage he clearly thought it was a foul. No clue why VAR didn't correct them.
You don't just stop play. Play to the refs whistle.I remember the situation, I don't understand why Nunez kept playing. Obviously the free kick (what I thought it was at the time) was a better advantage.
Anyone think De Ligt could've seen red rather than yellow for his tackle on Lucho?
This isn't the best angle, but when I saw it on the replay I thought it looked pretty reckless

Was expecting a VAR check and a pen here in all honesty:

Too fucking right it is. When they cut to Fergie looking miserable in the stands, it warms my heart and the only thing more beautiful is that one time a few seasons ago when Kenny was sitting behind him, pissing himself laughing.It’s not sad. It’s beautiful.

It was advantage and we shot wide. Like the old days I'm glad it wasn't brought back for a pen..it was borderline in the area anyway.
VAR is for clear and obvious errors. When you are zooming in to determine whether contact was in or outside the box. That falls foul (pun intended] of the clear criteria. Therefore refs call.It was inside the area or at worst on the line. But on the line is the same as in the area. Giving advantage in that position is a bit shit in all honesty.
That was an excellent if forceful shoulder charge- shoulder on shoulder. I would have been horrified if the ref blew for that. I am genuinely shocked that the ref didn't blow for the Csemiro crumple, not because I thought it was a foul, but because refs just seem to give those all the time. All in all, I have to say it was a good day for the ref.I'm surprised that tackle on Maimoo wasn't blown for a foul. Overall, I'll happily take the decisions we got.
He needs his minutes managed or he’ll burn out like last season.

I do stick by we took a clear shot afterwards which didn't test the keeper.
Like for the "before he's completed his Health and Safety e-learning" 😁What I find strange about the discourse from some United fans and journalists is the overhyping of the players. Many genuinely believe these are top-tier players ruined by poor systems and bad management. You see Neville suggesting they have a better midfield individually. You see United fans putting six United players in a combined eleven. It's delusion. The reality is the players themselves are simply average. They’re either names living off past reputations or just downright mediocre, especially considering the money spent on them.
Ten Hag is getting more unhinged and ridiculous with each week. Trying to convince anyone, including himself, that he has a plan, and even if he does, the world watched on as Slot dissected and comprehensively blew it out the water before he's completed his Health and Safety e-learning.
There’s no silver lining here—no clear way out of this mess. From every angle, they’re just not good enough, and honestly, it’s glorious.
