If that chant is too much for you then i'd suggest staying at home or wearing ear defenders.

Great.

I'll take that on board.

Bizarre.

Okay, I'll leave it at that, I'm obviously  over sensitive and woke..

 

Jeez I wasn't serious about Waddle. 

Also wokeness never entered my head  .But you're definitely over sensitive about that chant .

Yeah, Stuart Attwell

Better off with Winifred Attwell

One for the oldies ( but funny)

[suffolk fox]

Game was summed up for me 2nd half.  Shaw makes a hard challenge on Castagne down near the corner flag, close to where I was standing.  Both players down Shaw rolling around holding his ankle.  Attwell the ref, runs over steps more or less over Castagne, who is still on the floor not moving, to ask Shaw if he is ok?

 

I thought, there is the proof we are playing 12 men this afternoon.  Mendy picks up a yellow for nothing  a fair tackle, Shaw should have been booked, as for Sabitzer whoever it was look at it again, its a red all day long.

Yeh the commentary was horrific. No idea why they put Neville commentating Man U games, we have enough bias on the pitch without having it in the commentary box as well. The main commentator pissed me off though. Half time whistle goes and he says, Man U should be 2-0 up with the miss from Dalot. So we're just going to ignore all the saves De Gea made and the fact we pumped them for 45 minutes but just didn't score. Then in the 2nd half said Sabitzer needs to be careful after his yellow in the first half. At that point I was convinced he was just mocking the leicester fans

It absolutely has got worse 

 

I can imagine Attwell going in the Man Utd dressing room after the game with his autograph book to collect signatures “for his 4 year old nephew”

Was this the same ref that stitched us up at Brighton last season? 

[jayfox26]

Has there been a decent angle to see the Rashford offside? I was convinced he was offside and thought the line didn't look straight but haven't seen an angle that looks straight across. Also, is the var offsides done by a computer, or is it possible for them to get it wrong? I was also convinced that Barnes was onside vs spurs, but again, is it possible for var to get offsides wrong? 

[Matt]

No, no it wasn’t.

[Bptiger]

I have seen players sent of for less, I can’t believe that VAR didn’t get the ref to at least look at the tackle . United always seem to get the rub of the green when against the lower sides

Chants of " you let your country down" to Rashford.

Amazing!!

Mostly from people who themselves have probably done little for their own country.

Love our fanbase sometimes.

Bet Saka cant wait to hear the same on Saturday!!!

As much as i think Rashford is a tosspot its quite hilarious people singing that considering Vardy didnt even have the bottle to take a penalty in the 2018 semi final. Magical injury that just suddenly appeared after the final whistle

No he isn't, for a footballer he is pretty sound. What he is , is a class player in form. We knew it before the match and like other teams failed to counteract him. I thought we played mostly OK so let's start thinking about Arsenal , we have a much better chance for something here.

*In your opinion

[TMELcfc]

For all the talk of VAR and how we were robbed by the officials… that doesn’t take away the fact we missed two decent chances first half. Then put on that pathetic display 2nd half. Yes them being down to 10 men would’ve helped but we were awful at keeping the ball second half, Maddison and Kel being two main culprits. 

What worries me most is this squad just seems so flakey. One defeat seems to knock us back massively. 
 

Our home form is going to be key in keeping us up. Win 4 of those and I think that’ll be enough

I think that the right view would be that if Barnes was offside then so was Rashford (and vice versa) and what that means is that on far too many occasions VAR is essentially no better than when only the on field officials ran a game.

That is the vital thing for us. We lose , we bounce back strongly and compete in every match. There is no room for sulking in our position.

[RonnieTodger]

That game was everything I hate about the Premier League and Man United.

Not really a tosspot though is he?

Agree with you on the rest, cant hammer someone for having the bottle to take a pen in such circumstances, most of us would sh1t it.

Going down like hes had his ankle broke to get Mendy booked when he hasnt touched him? Tosspot in my book, not to mention the fact hes Mason Greenwoods pal

The red card would have changed the game. The offside goal gave them the safety blanket. 1 rule for all except Manure.

 

 

clearly the line is draw from his elbow.

 

Unless his elbow is by his shoulder then it clearly isn't

[RowlattsFox]

The reaction to this defeat has been massively over the top and shows how many fans expect us to go away to the 'top' teams and win every time. 

You only have to listen to Ten Hag's post match comments to see that we had them worried first half and on another day we take the lead. Who knows what happens next, potentially we'd have still capitulated under their pressure and lost 3-1. 

 

The way we conceded goals was disappointing and avoidable but hopefully we can continue the play the way we did for the first half and take our chances. We do that in most games and we will be fine

Cancel it. I did and things are so much better. Rather listen to Radio Leicester or LCFC media (with Gerry Taggart) than Sky's ridiculous commentary and 'experts'. They will get no money from me. 

[An Sionnach]

The media have concentrated on Rashford and he is in clinical form. Fernandes is the key though , he has been way off it for a long while but ten Hag has got him back to his best. This unlikeable and not pretty geezer is also one of the most intelligent players in the game. His influence is massive and he doesn't play fair . His ruthlessness will not win him many friends but I am sure he doesn't care one bit. He reminds me of Johnny Giles from long ago. I wish we had somebody like him.
