    Bruno looks to be playing deeper the last 15 mins not involved at all

    1. Three Pints of Schlager

      Salah 2.0

    So Enzo didn't go for the ball?... Ok

    https://x.com/PLMatchCentre/status/2099183583818645505

    VAR checked the referee’s call of no goal for offside – and determined that Haaland was in an onside position and recommended that the goal was awarded.

    The VAR also deemed that while in an offside position, Fernandez didn’t play the ball.

      This is ridiculous. Martinez has to go for Enzo and not the ball and Enzo is blatantly offside. Apology on the way

    2. Feanor

      play means touch it?

        Yes that line from the Dorgu touch is playing Haaland onside not Enzo !! You keep saying this

    Why oh why did I get rid of Gvardiol on FH 🙁

    8/10 returns so far with Hall left

    BrunoF and KDH the only blanks

    1. Jebiga
      • 14 Years
      1 hour, 57 mins ago

      Lol

      1. Jebiga

          Come on, grow up

  9. Three Pints of Schlager

    On SKY they are still thinking the goal was offsides.

    If conformed, FPL should remove all points for Haaland and GVARdiol.

    1. Ignasi M
      • 9 Years
      2 hours, 26 mins ago

      I've looked at it all angles. it's totally offside. Unless someone can tell me otherwise ?

      1. Three Pints of Schlager
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years
        1 hour, 36 mins ago

        It looked.like Dorgu deflected the ball.

        Otherwise, no idea why this was given.

    2. Feanor
      • 17 Years
      2 hours, 26 mins ago

      That’s sad cope lol

    Ndiaye 10 defcons wtf he came on at halftime can’t be right, they added Cherki’s to his lol

  11. Sun Jihai
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    NOR 5 points
    Gvardiol 33 points
    Going to wrong one and paying more has been so painful!

    1. Freshy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 16 Years
      1 hour, 28 mins ago

      NOR a quality depth player for City

  12. Ignasi M
    • 9 Years
    2 hours, 25 mins ago

    Carrick needs to find a way to play when Bruno is marked out of the game.

    1. Ignasi M
      • 9 Years
      2 hours, 24 mins ago

      this is what makes arsenal hard to play against because they don't really rely on one individual player

  13. Moon Dog
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 1 Year
    2 hours, 25 mins ago

    How many defcon is Michael Oliver on?

  14. Freshy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    2 hours, 24 mins ago

    City backup defenders are better than MU starters.
    BrunoF is the only attacker that would start for City.
    Lets blame Carrick

    1. Moon Dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 1 Year
      2 hours, 4 mins ago

      There's a gulf in quality for sure.

      City winning all the duels.

  15. Mr Arsenal
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 14 Years
    2 hours, 24 mins ago

    5mns of injury time is dodgy AF

    Man Utd are so bad. Cant beat your 10man rivals at home?

    1. Ignasi M
      • 9 Years
      2 hours, 19 mins ago

      They rely too much on bruno. The rest are average players.

  20. Feanor
    • 17 Years
    2 hours, 20 mins ago

    City win

    19 points for Gvardiol + Haaland owners

  21. F4L
    • 11 Years
    2 hours, 20 mins ago

    imagine trying to make the narrative of this match around the refs

    united play vs 10 for like 70mins and barely mustered a meaningful chance until one minute from FT.

    1. Moon Dog
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 1 Year
      1 hour, 20 mins ago

      Huge gap in quality

  22. Freshy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 16 Years
    2 hours, 20 mins ago

    All Donny can do is make saves

  23. Supersonic_
    • 5 Years
    2 hours, 20 mins ago

    Horrid gameweek, horrid result there too. I did have Gvardiol and Haaland though

  24. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
    • 9 Years
    2 hours, 19 mins ago

    That feels like the dirtiest Vardiol haul ever as a United fan

  25. Jebiga
    • 14 Years
    2 hours, 19 mins ago

    Thank you citeh!!!!

    Also thanks whoever told me to bench Tzolis and play Gross.

  26. JohnnyCroat

    Variance is a killer. Was having a baller GW at 0-0, but 0-1 was a massive downswing to red.

    Ko živ ko mrtav.

    1. Jebiga
      • 14 Years
      1 hour, 58 mins ago

      Jebi jebi jebi se kaže na srpskom 😉

    Horrendous. MUFC shower of shite.

  28. Jebiga
    • 14 Years
    2 hours, 17 mins ago

    How this var allowed obvious offside. I'm still shocked as city fan. Buahahaha. Look like LiVARpool years with Salah ahaha

  29. Pariße

    Terrible week to go Bruno & Isak over Saka & Haaland.

  30. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…

    You can tell by the line in the grass that Haaland is ahead of Dorgu’s foot lmao 😆 😆 😆
