Can't really say it was Oliver. First goal wasn't a free kick, granted; but they're still 40+ yards from goal. We were asleep
2nd goal is on VAR.
Thanks not to say Oliver was good; he was fucking shite. I just don't think he cost us the points
He’s shite. Runs and fouls all game.
There was never 2+ mins extra to add on. The full amount is never given ... there was 1 minute left when the two everton players collided. Somehow that was extended.
I'm done with VAR. They can't get it right so it's a pointless intrusion. I mean if they can't get EITHER of those two right then what's the fucking point of it. And if they aren't "clear and obvious" then what exactly WOULD meet that threshold that WOULDN'T be spotted by the ref? It's useless.
Everton were good enough for the point. I can't be arsed going over ref decisions and individual errors. We put up a lacklustre team performance that meant the best we could dream off was a smash and grab, and we almost managed it.
The players have shown a mental block playing both United and Everton this season. We've been too soft and easily disrupted in games. I've been longing for Hendo/Milner to just lead us through tough moments, keep people switched on and alert, and do the basics right. We lack that nous and presence in the middle.
Oliver is a cunt, though. He was playing on for one big chance before ending the game.

I dont think he helped, the best 'football' derbies are when the ref uses his head, if you want drama you put that cunt in charge.
Mate he 100% cost us the points today. He was a homer from start to finish.
I wasn't being serious mark.
This is exactly how I saw it, How the fuck did he add that extra minute, what the fuck was that the stupid ref cunt.
True enough, but that doesn't mean we all of a sudden forget how to defend, or that we just hoof the ball away.
In his defence he could have easily sent Bradley off
Or get fouled to stop getting the ball but of course Oliver missed it.
Clash of heads won them a point there. Played more time than he should have.
That was after countless fake non-existent fouls. Including their first goal.
Glad to see Curtis show some passion, bit lacking in some of our other players.
Diaz in the middle doesn't work, did for about 25 mins once, hasn't since.

He definitely was a homer, but I don't think he cost us the points. VAR was more to blame than him. Hell, even our own players were more to blame than him.
The yellow he gave him wasn’t even a yellow. Oliver was shockingly shit. I hope to fucking Aegir that Slot calls out every single shitty call Oliver made.
For what?
Just before Bradley was subbed he did another foul (soft as all fuck) that if he was a true homer, he could have given him a second booking
That's who I was trying to remember. Yep. Absolute deja vu.
For barely touching the guy? You're right. He could of.
Arne felt like he couldn't take the risk, knowing Oliver would fold to the crowd, and took off both Robbo and Conor.
Gana Geuye made an actual (second) yellow card foul, but Oliver played advantage instead, which lead to nowhere.
Frustrating game. Sure, the ref was a homer, but if we had just kept the ball better in the last minute instead of giving it back to them, there would be no way for Oliver to make a mistake.
For the same challenge Slot immediately brought him off. Would have been soft but in line with his criteria throughout the game
No. But it was in answer to Oliver costing us the match ... and he did by playing time that didn't exist. There were 2-3 occasions after the injury I thought he was going to blow but he just let it run and run and run.
Yeah we miss a calm experienced midfield head in these moments
That wasnt even a freekick to begin with,
