I must say, what I have just witnessed there today really did prove to me that United are back. Amidst all the VAR controversy, amongst all the Brighton chances; what happened?? Did Brighton play well? Yes. Did they deserve to get something from the game? Indeed. But did United win?? Oh yes they did!!
Why are so many in the media and online being negative towards Ole? These people know nothing about the game, they'd have had Fergie sacked in 1989 or something! You just look at that match today and see shades of the great United sides. The same sides who were lead by Fergie, Ole's mentor.
People are quick to forget that it wasn't all sunshine and singing under Ferguson. Look at his best ever side's for God's sake! The '94 side, '99 and 2008 didn't always play great football and win did they? What all of those champions had in common was the ability to play terribly and WIN. Something Ole proved he has in his locker today!
Just remember, the media will tell you he's a terrible manager, a lucky manager etc. I must say, as Barca fan, it's been nothing but refreshing and entertaining watching United play these last few months. Our season starts tomorrow against Villarreal at the Camp Nou. Let's hope we get off to a win, perhaps even a dramatic one. 2-1 in injury time perhaps?? Ole knows...
Shades Of Old!!

The referee didn’t whistle until after the incident so that was live play still being reviewed.

Correct. This would apply to any incident occurring within playing time, which the handball was. A VAR review will always take 30 seconds to a minute. The fact that the final whistle was blown in between is irrelevant, it was the correct decision to get the ref to review it once it was clear an infringement had occurred

I genuinely think many folks are masochists. They love feeling like they've been treated badly.

you do wonder at times why some people bother following a sport that they are convinced is corrupt, and that brings them nothing but anger and misery.
god forbid that united ever benefit from an incident like this, i think the internet would break:

“Watching Man U has been entertaining”.
No argument there.
“Man U of old, are now back”
Not a chance while the owners are only interested in revenue and the first VI are relying on a well-intended but out of his depth Norwegian to lead them to glory.
