What? That does not change the refs' inconsistency.

Should be expected in this country. Refs will never give the same decision twice

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,889]

Sanchez should have been booked for stopping that free kick.

[Milan 17,848]

That was some quality finish. If he tried that 50 times, never would he be able to replicate that.

And some of you actually thought we'd finish above United rofl

I am not sure many people here thought that. United have spend big two years in a row without selling anybody significant. We all know they are good. 

[Pizy 18,323]

United look a lot like us under Mou in his second spell. Rock solid at the back, a nearly impenetrable shield just in front of them, not always exciting but show flourishes of quality in attack.

Though we had chances to go above.. Except we then lost or drew the game as well and now have slid down slightly. 

Oh well... Jose still knows what he's doing..

I  knew that we are not going to finish above United this season.  Their team is better than us last season yet they spend more than us again this season. It is impossible to keep finishing above team who on paper is a much better team.

The difference also is the players they've spent money on have perfromed whereas ours.... Less so.

Sanchez has looked dreadful thus far, Lindelof can't even get a game ahead of Jones & Smalling and Mkhitaryan speaks for himself.

Ya was thinking more Lukaku.. Who we knew would make a impact anyway as used to the league. 

Just annoying to think December we were level with points and now sit 12 behind. Oh well. Do what we have to do.. Which is now start winning

Kenedy scores in the first minute for the barcodes

Only have ourselves to play (more so Conte as of late). We were comfortably second at a point but our rivals eventually took advantage.

I think he could have really been of use here if he didnt get caught in that racism scandal in China.

Ya that's what's made it so frustrating that wasn't a slow decline down the table but super quick. Oh well... Still top half at least :-D

Totally agree. His season was effectively over here before it even started.

[Fulham Broadway 16,705]

Was going to say thank fuck hes only on loan, but we'll probably sell him now

[Laylabelle 9,341]

Oh dear drama at West ham
