Such a pointless pen by Fernandinho

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
With him being such a foul machine in the PL and never getting punished for it, that was so satisfying to see Fernandinho penalized there.
2-1 Schalke!
He played against Juventus with Monaco and was smothered. But that was a few years ago.
Fan of VAR but I support this.
City 2-1 down
I swear Schalke have never in their history won in any other way than by multiple penalties or by headers from corners. This game is the epitome of a Schalke win.
City
wtf
Such a boring team made up of cnuts. Why players actually want to play this style of football is beyond me. We saw what our players thought of it when Mourinho was here
This ref is extremely good. Takes no shit from the players and knows how to calm everything down with a consistent line.
I've been thinking/saying all week that the Man City game wouldn't be worth watching, and the Atletico/Juve game would be the tie of the round... But then again I predicted Liverpool vs Bayern would be a great game.Bloody football.
At least they're fecking it up in CL not the league.
Wow, the CL anthem is really going to be booed in the second leg as things stand
Wasn't it offside? VAR is pointless
Bloody football.
Why on earth would you think that?
Two boring teams.
Get Kompany on
Juve aren't much better than Atletico, 2 shite teams to watch
Could you imagine If City got knocked out ? All eyes on the league then 
Chiellini & Bonnuci were meant to be out, and good defensive football can still be enjoyable. So far it's been like a shite episode of Eastenders.
5 sign from Ronaldo?
What does that mean.
What does that mean.
Can't slide tackle an offside player either, can you? The ball was still far away.
Btw: I don't even know if it was or not, I didn't see. Just stating that generally.
Fair play to the ref, I guess many would have let that foul pass with one pen already given.
I want City to advance in this, but I don't want their second leg to be a cruise.. so a defeat or draw would be good to give them something to think about in the next leg.
Can't satisfy everyone. Last year people were calling the Liverpool - Roma ties rubbish as well
Agreed, he’s been quite good so far. 8 refs out of ten would have backed down and not given the penalty against Fernandinho as well.
I found the game is in Germany.
Meh doesn't mean much then. City will win easily at home.
Meh doesn't mean much then. City will win easily at home.
5 times la
5 CL's?
Bloody hell the game's gone a bit stale here at the Wanda Metro.
Schalke are going to sit back and this will end 2-4.
they might as well get to the penalties already . juve-atletico is an eyesore
They would be idiots not to notice that the probability of getting a penalty increases as they get into the opposition box
Could you imagine If City got knocked out ? All eyes on the league then
Imagine we derail Liverpool's title hopes on the weekend. And then liverpool and City knocked out of the CL right after.
Simione makes Mourinho to look like Guardiola, anti-football to the max
Couple thoughts:
Lots of teams have problems vs this style.
Athletic has actually a really strong team.
Trying to influence ref at every occasion.
DeSciglio pretty bad this game.
In this kind of games you can see how important Khedira is.
0:0 will be an okay result. 1:1 or better "the dream"
Schalke are 14th in Bundesliga. I don't know how they are acceptable in the CL every year despite playing absolute fluke football in basically every game as well as even being near the relegation zone in Bundesliga. Just like when Schalke went to the CL semis.
That foul by Partey, I never understand the point of them. Why would you throw yourself like that, there ?
Generally it's a friendly wave.
Can't help but feel like Allegri is miss using Ronaldo.
Anyone got a clip of the 2nd pen decision against City? All other streaming sites slow.
