    Why do goalkeepers shout AWAY when a corner comes in? Are professional defenders not aware of this ambition?

    Crystal Palace are fielding a player that doesn't have a wikipedia page, and I think about half the names on their bench are made up.

    Surely it's to tell the defenders that they're going for it and to fuck off out of the road.

    Their two-carthorse approach is intriguing as well.

    In this example Hennessey was on his line and it was just a standard header clear from someone else.

    I imagine it to be more distracting than anything else, especially if it's poorly timed.

    I've just noticed Glenn Murray has notched double figures in the league, on the plane.

    How can you keep doing foul throws? That's three in a game.

    I've just turned this on, but if Fosu-Mensah doesn't get at least fifteen games for United next season Ryan Giggs should be the manager.

    Looks like Martial on the left and Sanchez on the right

    18-0 Utd.

    United would have about 10 more points if their shirts were a proper United shade of red rather than this luminous nonsense.

    I haven't got a clue what formation we are playing. It almost seems like Lukaku is on the right...

    We'll probably lose this 3-0, but those first three minutes were among the most exhilarating of my life.

    Diamond like Alan Smith said - so Lukaku's the right sided striker and has to cover that side a little more.

    I think it makes sense to see every tactical decision from here until the end of the season as one long MIND GAME against the Paulp Ogba camp.

    If only Ferguson had spotted the player Danny Drinkwater was going to turn into, they wouldn't have needed to spend all that money on Pogba in the first place.

    Scott McTominay exists for a £18 million move to Newcastle/Villa/Watford in the summer.

    I like this SHACKLES job he is doing on Hazard, which involves standing quite near him like a weirdo in a bar.

    Martial is staying wide though. It's like he's been told one thing whilst everyone else had been told another.

    I'm not sure that was as bad by Sanchez as it first looked, he was coming onto it really awkwardly to get any kind of decent contact on it first time.

    Shambles from De Gea there. And McTomminay completely switched off.

    I don’t know if you can blame De Gea for that. Willian proper thumped that.

    Should Valencia not have just stepped up there and left them all 3 miles offside?

    Yeah, unless you set yourself up expecting it to hit you in the chest you're a bit stuck. The defenders all bumbling about are at fault.

    Nice keeping from the human sieve De Gea. Not sure where the left side of your defence was though.

    Why wasn't the game stopped for a head injury to Christensen? Health and safety mate.

    The key point there for those of us in his fan club was that at every stage in that goal he actually played his weight and help people off. If he did that consistently it would make up for a lot of the other annoying things he does.

    The referee should be sacked for that.

    10 yards back from the foul and the ref didn't even know they had restarted but went with it.

    If Hazard took a shot even about 25% more often it would be quite nice.

    I like it as a trait, in contrast to the absolute bullshit going on in Paris at the moment, but there are times when it's clearly the best option and he refuses.

    Might I suggest Conte's traditional full back switch might be Emerson in place of the useless murderer.

    This is alright now, with Ogba shaking Kante off and getting into it, but there is still nothing on the right. 'Alexis' has the intelligence to come in when necessary, so why not just have him there nominally?

    We should just keep raining shots in on biscuit hands by the looks of it. Target their weak player.
