Feel bad for Soton but their defence is poor.

 

They sat back a bit from the press as soon as they scored. Pogba lost the ball once after that but our players have had a lot more time on the ball since then.

the second goal shows it, much more time of the ball for our players getting the ball out.

 

The risk/reward of the press. Once United figured it out, there was too much space for the Southampton defence to defend behind.

 

Water break has got them back going again

 

Oh man if that cross to Greenwood had just a little more behind it he was going to goal. It took too long to get it and control it.

 

I wonder if it would be worth having Bruno drop back further to the midfield a bit.

 

Man, this Southampton team with better passers would be unreal. We’ve been so poor since the second goal.

 

Romeu should be off. Clear red. Thanks VAR. Disgraceful.

 

Genuinely believe they could get top 4 next season.

 

Question, Romeu very clearly tried to hurt Greenwood there. If VAR checked it, does that mean there is no possibility of retrospective action?


Aside from that, Romeu is nailed on to score now.

 

Horrendous challenge. Can't believe they looked at that and deemed it okay. It's one of those that yes, maybe they miss it in real time. But there's no way you look at it and feel it's anything other than a red.

Neville said it best in commentary. He let the ball go then tried to "do him". Real cynical on the 18 year old kid.

 

You can clearly see on the replay he goes for him. The ball is gone before Romeu even lifts his foot towards Greenwood. Scumbag attempt to hurt a player.

 

He's a player that you know always has it in him for some reason. I'm sure I remember him being sent off for similar before. I hope the press pick up on it so the FA have to do something about this one.

 

They won’t. Le Tiss (talking about bias earlier) said it wasn’t a red so they’ll ignore it.

 

The ball isn't even in the frame on the replay

 

Jesus De Gea’s kicking has been extra bad today.

 

Armstrong should be booked for that.

 

That looked like it could have been another red.

maybe not?

 

How has Romeu not even been booked yet

 

Rashford was in on the goalkeeper there if Walker Peters didn’t handball it.

 

Clear elbow to the head. No card. Wow.

 

Elbow to the head and nothing. They’re falling every single time we go near them and the ref keeps giving them frees.

Bruno should be coming off to be honest.

 

Fuck me Southampton are getting frees for literally anything

 

I love our corners. Signal and send it straight to the first man or the keeper.

feck. Shaw has been fantastic since the restart and gets an injury for his birthday present.

 

Glad he seemed to be somewhat ok. Probably just miss a match.


Oh man of Martial would’ve finished that
