I wonder why VAR can't look at 2nd yellow cards but give a yellow for a potential red card offence? Makes no sense.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
First normal thing you've ever said. For me they should look at second yellows. Although justice was probably done, Fred clearly wins the ball and that changes the game. No reason why they can't do that.

Greenwood came on and Fernandes played further forward and Maguire pushed up for aerial presence

that says it all about this united team
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No you're right.. bringing on a talented youngster who is our most natural finished and pushing forward our most productive player and top goalscorer was awful decision making
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Bruno was quite poor today and greenwood hasn't been favoured all season

Ole pretty much made the team impotent

Bloke waits 70 mins to make a sub every single game

already forgot Sunday's game, i see!

I really couldn't bring myself to be reduced to have to remind this clown of this.

Well done you!

Thought the only mistake was not taking Fred off tbh. On the balance of it we probably should have won the game, poor finishing cost us.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Really? Thought PSG were the better team, apart from about a fifteen minute spell from United on the counter.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes really we were better for around 45 minutes, and could have put the game to bed. We didn't and paid the price
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Disagree. Game was the pretty much even in the first half, perhaps with PSG edging it. Fred should have been sent off also. Second half United had a good fifteen minute spell on the counter and should have scored. Other than that, PSG were the better team, had the better chances, more skillful, better on the ball etc.

Perhaps if Fred had been taken off you may have nicked something but on the balance of play, 3-1 was a fair result.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Can’t say I agree with your analysis there.
2-1 was a much fairer reflection of the game if not 1-1.

Martial’s chance? Cavani hitting the crossbar with a delightful chip?
It was a much more even game than a 3-1 score line suggests

bruno wasted a good chance at the end of the first half to trying to make a pass when there was no need too

Some seem to believe that everything on the pitch is the managers fault, it isn't. I think he should have replaced Fred, but us missing clear chances wasn't.
We can't keep judging him after every game, he should be judged at the end of the season.
He loses a game after four wins and out come the same shouts from the same people.
I don't see why we don't just support the club unless it's a disaster and then say what we think'

So should all football managers sub players on yellow cards?

Or just Ole?

posted on 2/12/20

OGS should have taken Fred off as it was clear to see he would be sent off for anything 2nd half and he got sent off for nothing. It was amazing to see us create a few chances and our press PSG for like 20 minutes with 10 men though.

I think the issue is trust. Fred can't be trusted. He was diving in when there is no need. And PSG were diving all over the shop.

His game is about tackling.

It's the same with Pogba, Ole kept playing him in a defensive role and he kept giving away penalties.

Some of this stuff doesn't really need a magic ball. It's so predictable.

With 5 subs and with midfield being our strongest position, it was a stupid decision to leave fred on.

Don't get me wrong, Fred was stupid but personally i'd have subbed Fred off as punishment for nearly getting sent off. We saw what happened with martial against spurs.

Ole is at the wheel
Tell me




How good does it feel?

Feels great for me

Fred’s only been sent off once in his career before tonight, and never for Manchester United. The idea he cannot be trusted to stay on the pitch isn’t really the case.

What is this nonsense?

Taking this game and opposition into account, who wouldn't have subbed him?

The fact that everyone assumed he would get hooked at HT said it all.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
he is at times brainless

we see that with his passing, we see that with his tackling

he absolutely cannot be trusted because under pressure he cracks

The issue with the Fred one was that it was a contentious decision in the first place and the referee would have known at half time at the very least. He was always going to be walking a tightrope in the second half, more so than just a normal yellow card. That and it was a battle in midfield, thought Mctominay was lucky not to be on a yellow by the end of the first half too tbh.

I do get why he would have wanted to keep him on though. Are

Same as Rojo is a sending off waiting to happen.

Saying that you could see where this was headed today with Fred. It was idiocy by the manager to keep him on.

Hi melts.

I thought it was a questionable decision, but not a terrible one.

Fred was the player we most needed out there in the midfield today. It was something of a gamble keeping him on, but not a ridiculous one.

It was a risk leaving him on, always will be when a player is on a yellow. But it’s understandable why he did and how we came out and played in the second half would have been the reason for it.

Marquinos hitting the bar, Bakker's chance, Mbappe's chance, scored three goals. 3-1 fair result. Could have been more if Fred was sent off in the first half, I suppose.

You're wrong. I never wanted him, and was pleased when he went. But while he was here I supported him.
