That was a very end to end game between United and Arsenal yesterday, very dissapointed we didn't take anything from the game but we should have taken our chances, we had plenty of them. A couple of sub-par performances cost us yesterday despite the team playing well overall IMO
The penalty was never a penalty, Lacazette knew exactley what he was doing and he dived to win that, but Lukaku could have had us 1 or 2 goals up before Arsenal scored, so we can only blame ourselves. Though I do still think that the penalty was a decisive point in the game. De Gea, Pogba and Rashford all had off days, now we'll get to see how the team responds.
Good to see Fred play well and also Martial back in action.

If it were any more serious, then it should probably have been abandoned - but at least the stupid arsehole has been jailed for 14 weeks and banned from football stadia for 10 years.
-
That said, I do believe the attacker when he said he had no intention of attacking a player when he jumped over the barriers - it is a seemingly inexplicable act of stupidity to do something as daft as that knowing that there is no way you would possibly get away with it... it does have all the hallmarks of an impulsive act that had no serious motive. But, unfortunately for him, he needs to be punished severely and a few months in jail seems like a decent punishment. Given that he has a young family, however, it is a severe punishment, albeit fully deserved. Doubtless he will also lose any job he may have had too, and will live to regret a moment of madness.
With a bit of luck, it will bring attention to the concept of the 'impulse crime' and the idea that people need to avoid this kind of behaviour at all costs. Luckily, it wasn't any worse for the person he attacked, but for the perpetrator and his family, it will be a very hard lesson.

This will show if he is a great trainer, or that he was riding the Ronaldo Express.
Knowing how humans work now that scoring likes is a thing, we will see more of it, with people carrying their cameras.

There's a couple of things I don't know or understand.
Firstly, how are these bans enforced? I'm assuming he can't buy tickets online or have any sent to his address; but what's to stop them being bought on his behalf? Is every member of security supposed to recognise him?
Secondly, the jail time is less than last time it happened at a Blues/Villa game and that person only laughed & flicked the v's at Peter Enckelman. That's not exactly sending a message.

Good points - although I would imagine that he could well be subject to a court order meaning that if he is caught entering a stadium then he could be returned to jail without trial. It does, however, seem quite lenient, but his personal circumstances and motives ought to be taken into account - IIRC, he has a young child and his partner is currently pregnant, which probably influenced the sentence.
If you mean Paul Pogba, he got a yellow card and should hopefully be dropped to the bench for the foreseeable future

Breaking news! Paul Scholes has left the Oldham job after just 31 day and 7 games in charge, it seems like he didn't/wont get his say on everything at the club, which is what he implied in his statement. he only won 1 out of his 7 games.

Unless Sancho pulls a Dembele and refuses to play until he gets transferred, I can't see BVB moving him. He just signed a contract through 2022, so I can't see him moving until 2020 or 2021 at the earliest.
Unless a team makes an insane offer of over 150 million. Then it's pretty easy to see Sancho get moved.

An oil money fueled lobby has ensured that the FIFA agreed on a new setup for the World Cup for clubs.
Instead of 7 clubs it will be a tournament with 24 teams, and instead of December it will be held instead of the Confederations Cup, in the Summer. The European Club Association and their clubs will boycott this new setup because of their already packed calendars.
