Have teams in the Premiership thought about not fouling our players in the box?

That might reduce the number of penalties we are awarded.

We get a lot of penalties because our attackers have quick feet in the box. Same as Salah really.

Or you also get them in ridiculous situations like when Pogba trips himself up...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That was a pen. The contact was clearly made by the Villa player. He got too tight and clipped Pogba's leg.

Don't think he's rattled at all, think he's trying to influence the ref ahead of the game.

Before VAR you would have a point.

I think he's like one of those Big Trak toys you used to get in the 70's. Really basic set of commands and would just trundle along until it hit something, at which point it'd change direction slightly and do the same again.

He's just been programmed to say Penited right now.

God knows what he’s gonna be like when United play Liverpool, he holds the same amount of contempt for both sides

There are plenty of people on this forum who are difficult to say the least, but there's still an element of debate/argument to be had on a range of topics and so it's okay in some respects.

But then there are some really rather tiresome individuals, who just keep posting the same old stuff and it ruins the forum.

He's definitely one of them.

The United board attracts a fair few. Just the same posts, over and over again with a few words changed.

It amazes me that they don't bore themselves.

Anyone else love that the opposition call us penchester, pen utd, penandez etc?

I love the salty tears

Is that because 12 yards is how far his first touch bounces?

Fingers crossed for Pentford tonight

seems that whinging about united getting more penalties than everyone else is sooooo 2019:

https://www.90min.com/posts/the-number-penalties-won-each-premier-league-club-2020

Surely people don't really think that refs are bribed?
Firstly how would you know that the ref was bent, and if he wasn't all hell would be let loose.
Secondly VAR and the scrutiny of all the cameras makes it difficult.
Thirdly a look at past penalties given show various clubs near the top or bottom, nobody consistent.
It's just not feasible. It's used by any manager, not just Klopp, if they feel hard done by, but only after a loss.

difficult to tell whether they genuinely believe this, but boy do some of them sure go on about it - there are a good few liverpool fans who will allege a conspiracy, though i think the single worst offender is the relentlessly tiresome cinci (i exclude billy as a parody account...am i the only one who actually finds him amusing, at times anyway?)

I wonder why he thinks we get more penalties than Liverpool. I think it's probably because we're more likeable.

The question mark is unnecessary, Mike

It's not so long ago that Crystal Palace had 10 penalties in the same season, whilst little old United were given just 3.

I hope we never return to those dark days of favouritism by the FA.

He didn't say or imply Klopp had any meltdowns at Dortmund.
