There are a lot of deeply mediocre players on the pitch.

 

[Jussi]

I have to say, Shaw, Amad and Mount returning has made United play much better technically.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

That’s a handball lol

 

[hatterson]

I'm neutral on that handball. It was close, but the arm was also in a bit of an awkward position instead of tucked in.

We went back to "nothing is a handball" after a couple of years of "everything is a handball".

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Literal nonsense. It’s a handball I’m hoping united win but it’s a handball. Proximity shouldn’t matter in this case

It wasn't as bad as the one in el classico, but I certainly couldn't have complained if it was given.

 

[luiginb]

It only took 5 minutes for Bissouma to make his presence felt. 1-0 Villa.

I wonder what happened to Palmer, he seems to suffer from whatever Dele Alli suffered from when he forgot how to play from one day to another.

 

[hatterson]

I like Neto's crossing strategy of just blasting it chest height directly at the keeper.

If you want to reinforce someone's view that soccer is boring, just show them this half.

Honestly feels like both teams are thinking of the beach. I assume united have an eye towards europ but wtf is Chelsea issue?

What’s the issue of booing a former player? Especially one that left to a rival. Adds a bit of vinegar to the game.

 

[hatterson]

Linesmen should leave the flag down in those situations to troll the player about missing the shot.

Luckily, that doesn't seem to be the case, he's back on the pitch. Hit the post earlier with a good shot. Decent save from Onana on Palmer's shot and the follow up was offside anyway, but balsted well over too.

 

[gary69]

Son with a great run almost length of the pitch but ended the move with a wayward pass. COYS, please grab a win in this match.

Oh well, no favours from Spurs, Villa 2-0 up already.

Both goals between the legs of Spurs' defensive players, now it was Archie Gray (who's in no way ready for the Premier). Nice goal from Kamara anyway.

Tel makes me miss Werner.

 

[Tasty Biscuits]

Hojlund, assuming he has 5 seconds worth of space at the top of the box...

 

[gary69]

Madueke with a good burst of speed and delivery, but no-one even near to getting end of it. Not really surprsing given the lack of proper striker, but still...need a better effort.

Edit: and just like that George earns a PK, but the contact was minimal. Maybe it's taken back?

 

[hatterson]

If VAR leaves the pen because of that touch from the elbow United should legitimately walk off the pitch.

It's very obviously a dive.

 

[al secord]

Card him.

 

[hatterson]

Colwill gets knocked down, smacks his head on the turf, and immediately grabs his head.....trainers don't even come out to talk to him. This sport is stupid.

 

[hatterson]

Giving Amad a card for simulation but not one for George earlier is pathetic refereeing.
