By the letter of the law surely this is a hand ball?

Some turn around there at Old Traffic

It won't last - seen i all before with Ole and others
The classic manager bounce

By the colour of the shirt, it's play on.

Fulham next for United, that's the real test, can they win against a team they're expected to beat. Last few seasons = nope.

Ha ha, is it Fulham? The absolute acid test for this bunch of flat-track bullies.

Karma for jesus against us?

I still think Arsenal will win it, City just look so stale and predictable in all they do and constantly look like you can get at them.

Arsenal won't get a better chance to win it as no doubt City will spunk another 250m in the summer and at some point you'd imagine Chelsea will get it going again and the rs will fall on their feet with another manager.

I think the wheels might start falling off the wagon for Arsenal but City have a lot to do and don't seem consistent enough, although with Guehi coming in, that could be the difference, as they've struggled with conceding goals.

They very well might - but they will be the poorest champions I can recall. Leicester had a touch of magic and romance about them, not to mention character. This Arsenal side are leading by default. If they are the best side in this league - and they seem to be - then I don't think people can argue that the standard in England is all that high. I certainly think the overall standard in Europe at the highest level is as poor as it has been in a few decades.

If it hit his hand sure

that angle is inconclusive

It's a handball (by law) but also if you disallow that banger then the games gone

 

[PrekisCrossBarlow!]

You haven't proven he's a top player, therefore I'm remaining with stating he's garbage.

So a player is either a top player or they are garbage. Nothing in between.

No offence, I don’t know you, but you are a perfect representation of why internet footy fans make me want to boil my head.

So obviously hit his hand yet they are saying it hit his hip. Awful decision when the rule is clear.

Saying that, it is a crap rule because his hand is by his side and if it was us and inevitably got ruled out (as of course it would for us) we would be livid.

They just don’t help themselves by being so blatant with their inconsistencies and deciding when to apply the rules firmly or not.

I'd allow it on the basis that his arm was by his side. Of course, I'd disallow it because this would not be given to any side outside the Sky five.

Personally I preferred the old rules about hand ball but they just seem to make things up day by day currently

 

[EFCPaul]

Anyone calling Barry rubbish, I still point them towards Gykoreses. Arsenal spent over double what we did and he's offering them even less. Least our guy wins a few headers.

Flop of the season easily.

The absolute nerve and lack of self awareness
