Today's Football 2018-19 Season

[Darth Toffeeman]

Not only should Solskjaer get the job, he's not far off deserving a statue outside the ground at this point.

An insane job he's done there.

He deserves one for his playing career.
That last minute goal again Munich was very special.

I would like to see an all Manchester final now.

You give up your right to the benefit of the doubt when you bottle it and turn your back. Facing the wrong way is not a natural position. Don't get me wrong, I don't think it's a pen, but players are going to have to learn to face the ball or they'll get VARRED

You'll get VARRED if you have utter dung refs. Which I suspect might be all of them.

Never a pen. Disliking a defender turning his back is mute.

It's a definite penalty under current rules. The argument really is whether the current rules need to be changed.

what current rules??? The handball rule hasn't changed! Handball has to be deliberate.

Next season is when it changes

Kimpembe’s elbow was away from his body a little bit and based on the direction the ball deflected, it wouldn’t have hit his arm if he had kept it right by his side. I understand the call, could have accepted either decision, just really unlucky to have such a close call right at the end with so much on the line.

The rule should be whether your hands are in an unnatural position. If yes, it's a penalty, if no, then it's not

Otherwise the likes of Suarez will just deliberately kick the ball at defenders hands if they're losing

Looking forward to seeing all the kopites sheepish in work tomorrow

This is an English speaking England based forum and so the focus will be on "what a great comeback from United" but the story here is the choke by PSG. United had 28% possession and 5 shots. They didn't actively push to attack until there were 8 minutes left. PSG couldn't have lost that without gifting United goals.

What id give to have just one moment like that at Everton

 

[devogue]

Correct decision, he looks at the ball then spreads his arms when his back is turned.

 

[Chris O'Connor]

Agree on the penalty being harsh by our current premier league interpretation, but PSG don't deserve anything, United were decimated, TEN first team players out including their talisman Pogba.

That's just incredible, United reserves overturning a two goal deficit in Paris.

Just awesome, Solskjaer will be given the keys to Old Trafford, Manchester and the World after this...

And the Liverpool supporters are all sick as parrots atm, their worst ever nightmare

Enjoying it, c'mon Olé do a di Matteo and win the thing now.

Media narrative of this game will be very misleading. Back pass, Keeper howler and VAR pen are the headlines, thought United were ordinary and PSG terrible

 

[RomanReigns]

There will be a stand named after him at this rate

 

[Big_nev]

Think it's now clearer than ever and a little worrying for when it comes over here but VAR is only as good as the officials who use it.

But then equally there has to be a concrete definition to unnatural

United beating City to stop them winning the Quad would be pretty epic to be honest...
