Worst decision in a long time. Absolutely terrible.

He is young, I doubt his position is fixed. It’s like playing pogba in number 6. Pogba is essentially an attacking midfielder. Still plays CM from
Time to time.
I’m not saying mejbri is the fix, I’m saying it’s worth trying him there for a game atleast to see if he could do a job. A job that has the bar set very very low from fred

It did, they just didn't tell Atkinson to go to the monitor.

It's £#%&!ing horrendous. Literally would've been robbed of 2 points and another couple of weeks of the "Ole OUT!" rubbish.

Zouma absolutely rinses Ronaldo out - how is it not a penalty? Still can't believe it.

So we were £#%&!ed from two refs

The manger has to be demanding an explanation for that before they think they can just do that every week to Ronaldo.

Incredibly, yes.

Incredible that both fouls on Ronaldo were just dismissed.

Fred isn’t playing well, but he’s much better than we’re seeing. Dropping him for a 10 stone 18 year old attacking midfielder doesn’t feel like the best move.

If Sancho had bagged that we would be creaming over it. What an unreal goal it was.

Hope big Jadon can learn a bit from Jesse. No hate. Sancho is much more talented, with time will explode.

Considering the opposition and the blazingly white hot environment, the composure, the calmness, the tranquility of the mind and body in such a position is stunning from a 28 year old boy.

Twice when you think about the first Ronaldo shout. I know I’ve said it before but Ole has to say something. It’s something Ferguson would be so good at doing.

It's literally a Gold Medal given out to anyone that can stick one on Ronaldo and get away with it. Prime target for lots of zero's to make a hero out of themselves. Unreal that it wasn't given. £#%&!ing disgrace.

Sky unbelievably ( ) quiet about it. Imagine that was the other way about?

They weighed it up.. give United a penalty after the ref said no; dogs abuse, let it slide and game finishes 2-1, nobody cares. They weren’t expecting West Ham to go up the other end and give them an opportunity to give them a penalty.

You’re such a clueless @#%&!. Stone wall penalties not given and another 2 or 3 excellent opportunities that on another day would’ve gone in, all the result of tactics. The manager makes subs and two of them combine to get the winner (tactics).
Anything to take the credit away from Ole when it goes right and yet the first thing that doesn’t go to plan on the pitch and it’s down to him.

I notice this line isn’t trotted out when Lukaku or Salah make the difference.

The second is a stone wall penalty, no argument about it...

Still can't believe that was given. Watch next Saturday when there's lots of fuss because one of them ISN'T given. It'll probably be us.

Fred is nowhere near good enough for his level to dip. If you’re limited, you need to be reliable, he isn’t.

When he’s like this, he’s a liability. Matic has been decent and with The Scottish Player having the legs around him, I’d go with those two for now.

Absolute £#%&!ing disgrace - they've not give those pens because it's ronaldo, simple as. They wanted to 'prove' a point there by not giving them. No other reason both of them should have been waved away.

The save at the end was great but i'm fuming we were even in that position. Disgrace. Absolute disgrace from Atkinson and the VAR team.

I’m still at Leicester 5-3 level lad.

If it had been at the other end, they’d have postponed kick off for this game and we’d still be watching replays now.

It really is. There’s just no excuse for not giving it in the first place, and it’s downright scandalous it wasn’t reviewed by VAR.
