He carried on like an absolute tit though, came across as a right pillock.

You try and imagine the pressure in and around that club at the moment.
I would have been incensed with the officials.
As Watford were with the missed penalty.

Charlie Austin's interview was about the best thing on MOTD for years.

About time someone started making some noise. Just a shame it was a player from little old SCBC, itll be a novelty and forgotten soon enough rather than being given the attention it deserves.

I just found it funny. The antithesis of the usual umm-ed and err-ed cliché fest. No doubt he'll get a fine and the FA Christmas party a slight upgrade.

Martin Keown praising our mentality on Saturday’s MOTD.

They do say that if you live long enough you’ll see it all.

Seeing The Missing Link on TV is always surprising.

MOTD2 “and Alonso was unlucky there”.

Obviously, not as unlucky as the poor girl he killed. Just saying like.

Big respect to Ian Wright.

Nice Match of the Day yesterday. Excellent interviews with Poch and Eriksen, about the game, football and the club, not how best to rebuild United. The game wasn't bad, either.

Just watched MotD, Eriksen droll as ever

Pochettino diplomatic as always.

I get the impression that Jenas would've loved to play for Poch and Poch would've got way more out of him than our managers at the time did.

 

[Yiddo]

They really don’t talk much about our performances on Match of the day do they? The analysis on Spurs always seems to be short compared to the other top 6.

That Salah dive was embarrassing. Had Dele done that there’d be pitch forks at the ready.

That Salah dive was embarrassing. Had Dele done that there’d be pitch forks at the ready.

TBF I think the pen was warranted, but the theatrics from Salah was a disgrace. He made a meal out of it, and should be ridiculed. Which he won't Pitchforks are reserved for players from 'lesser' teams, obviously, not the golden guys from Liverpool.

 

[Cochise]

It's a borderline call. A player with a rep for going down easily/diving wouldn't have gotten it. I also think a lot of refs wouldn't have given it.
