Whether VAR was correct or not the best team won out in the end, standard win against a team that at the start of the season looked unbeatable, but have lately turned to shit.

If it was a foul in Son it was a foul on Rashford, and if it was a foul on Son then he should have got at least a second yellow followed by a red.

Strange set up

Why would a foul automatically mean a yellow?  Of more importance if the ref deemed accidental the foul should not have been given as Son was fouling McTominay to begin with.

He slapped him in the face, in my book that's a yellow or red. If it was accidental as the ref seen it I've then why change his mind?
Slapped him? Son should have got a yellow card for simulation.

There was movement to his face, same as the non foul on Rashford just before it. You can't give one without giving the other, either they were both fouls or not.
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Was Pogba's not an elbow as well??

What was Ole on about with that stupid statement about not feeding his son? Random! I know he's Norwegian but surely he can come up with something better to say than that!

On balance Pogba's elbow was more of a red card than McTominay's was a foul.  If VAR has shown anything it's that it allows sh1t refs to double down on their ineptitude.

That was the old Man U. Everything went against them. Refs conspired. Yet they still won and won emphatically. Played some wonderful football. With one or two signings we're looking at genuine title contenders.

I've been critical of OGS but as a manager he's light years in front of Jose. Doubtful he'll be there next year, and I would imagine any Spurs player with any sort of ambition will be gone as well.

I thought it was 'sent to bed with no supper' type of thing. Jose made a cabbage out of himself with his response.

Good response yesterday again after going behind and good to see a bit of needle in Ole and the team after the decision.

Still think the team are relying too much on one or two pieces of individual brilliance, there were periods when it was all too much side to side and not enough cutting through. Need to find a way to play through or round these packed defences which if they keep improving they will face more and more.

Nice result to keep a good gap to Leicester hopefully can get to the last few games with this gap and hopefully be able to push for the Europa without any consequences for the league performance.

If he can convince Pogba to stay, as in make him actually want to stay not because nobody will pay up, and add a couple of proper first team players then you never know. Just hope they can finish the season strongly now and get the EL won.

I have always liked OGS as a manager as he came in with no ego, knows the club ethos and is United through and through so I want him to succeed.  Closing the gap and instilling a sense of belief in this United team is what he is doing and it will eventually pay off. 

Mourinho is a beaten docket now and will most likely be out of the picture next year, as will Kane. 

Sidenote, Keane was on top form in the studio yesterday.  Although I find his analysis always over critical, he is usually not far away on or thereabouts.  Micah Richards is cracking also, I would imagine many viewers like myself look forward to the pre/post match and half time commentary as much as the match itself. 
I tend to think of myself as a one man wolfpack...

Drama free Quarter Final tie for United. Got by as expected without Shaw, Maguire, McTominay and were able to rest Rashford.

Up next Roma in the semi finals, plenty of familiar faces in Dzeko, Pedro and former United players Mkhitaryan, and Smalling though the latter may miss out through injury.

Remarkably Uniteds first league double over Burnley since the mid 70s and the run looked like it would continue, in the end though a hard earned and deserved win. Burnley to their credit more than played their part in a decent quality game.

As for the European super league, the greedy owners can fcuk right off

With Woodward gone maybe the Glazers will follow. 🤞🤞

From listening to things last night the supporters are still planning to go ahead with the protest on Saturday at Old Trafford. You would think this is the best chance we've had to get the Glazers out. Still can't see who comes in with the money to get rid of them though.

I was glad to hear the players stood up to the board, some of the ones named I never expected. You can question Ole and the team on the pitch plenty but they do seem to become a much more likeable group of players.

Yeah I'd agree- Rashford, Shaw, Bruno, McTominay, Fred, Bailly all seem really likeable with the right attitude as well.
