No idea why that’s not a Newcastle penalty. A disgusting lack of proper footballers in either side. As long as you can run it’s all good.

Hands were not in an unnatural position, apparently.
Watching Chalobah and Mendy pass back and forth to each other before losing the ball is mesmerising stuff
At this point Chelsea are better off sacking the league and deliberately missing out on EL/ECL as not a chance they’re finishing in the top 4. I think they’ve had 2 shots all game and one of them was a miss hit. He hasn’t been helped with injuries or the fact the squad in general is a bit shit, but Potter has been properly found out and looked massively out his depth the past month. It’ll be interesting if the break makes a difference as he should have Fofana, James and Chilwell all back fit by then.
Longstaff must have waited six seconds there before suddenly deciding he was in agony. Dunno if that's a record but it must be up there to go from "fine" to "clutching your face in pain."
I once went to school with a lad who got a delayed concussion from running into a shopping trolley goalpost. Took about 2 weeks for him to realise.
Referee didn’t have a clue at the end of the game. Ended up shoving Pulisic out the way
This timewasting bollocks needs to stop. I hate how much we lean on it.
All of those cynical challenges at the end too. Some of them so blatant.
The one from Burn on Kovacic as he galloped towards the box was proper football.
What's going on with the VAR on that Wolves no penalty? Is it just complete pot luck now? Probably a red card too seeing as no effort to play the ball.
Baffling.
Awww. I was getting my hopes up.
Wolves haven't been too bad here but they just have nothing up front.
Where is Jiminez?
Hate that sort of penalty. McGinn never had any intention of taking another step, toe the ball and fall with feet together, the Harry Kane special.
I hate the idea of that sort of thing being a penalty, but Digne just boots him and it has to be in the VAR age. Completely inexplicable.
Shame Mitrovic is pretending to be injured for the World Cup as he’d have had fun here.
Imagine dropping points to Preseason Pirlo and Don James. Get the World Cup on.
Do love watching Palhinha. A proper defensive mid. Portugal must have some midfield if he doesn’t start there next week
Garnacho
That's absolutely brilliant from Garnacho.
Cruel. Utterly dominated United in the 2nd half. Martinez is a horrendous waste of £55m or whatever he cost.
Any chance Garnacho starts league games on a regular basis after the World Cup?
He was absolutely dogshit. Stick to wanking over transfer rumours.
He really wasn't dogshit.
He was skinned numerous times in that 2nd half - I don't expect him to keep up with Dan James but don't press the ball and put yourself in that position. He was constantly under pressure when in possession and it led to lots of turnovers, giving us good position on the pitch. He might have been good in other games but going off tonight, he was the weakest link in that backline (along with Malacia who had a torrid time against Willian in the 1st half).
Shut the fuck up, he's won the 2nd most aerial duels in the hsitory of the sport and he looks like a yob. The butcher
And Malacia is incredible. The attacking output...
Dave Gayer had to make two decent saves, and United muffed six easy chances. Never in doubt.

Pre-World Cup Gateshead update:
Bottom of the Conference. We're not staying up.
United were pretty average second half and the quality of the former United greats Hames and pre season Pirlo nearly swung it. But if you can win games playing poorly you're not in a bad way. Loads to do for ten Haag but it's improving.
My G, you can't just back out of holes you dug yourself with 'OMG you're obsessed'. The fucking useless shite has an xA of exactly fucking zero still in over 500 mins of prem action. I said he was useless at attacking and you gave me your delusional tears and tantrums. You have to own these things and come put your dirty lips around my big girthy member and beg for forgiveness.
Comparing him to Trent my man has the 10th highest xA in the league.
Speaking of obsessed though, let me hear the one about Nunez again, it's been a bit quiet recently.
All those words to try and obscure the fact you've based an entire post on xAssists.
High school bog roll has more substance.
Deep and sloppy please.

Pair of xTwats.
xTwats is easily the most useful x metric.
Has Willian sorted himself out since he came back? Last time I saw him the only thing he was giving a torrid time was the buffet.
Letting Dan James skin you is tactical mastery because he has the end product of a donkey. He almost muffed the goal by putting it straight at Gayer, who inexplicably turned sideways.
Is that the Willian? The Chelsea one?
Yeah, went back to Brazil but cancelled his contract with Corinthians. Trained with us for about 4 weeks and we signed him for a year.
I see Ronaldo has done another interview trashing Man Utd and Ten Haag.
