I would guess that Sancho would probably want to play PL Football. City would still have Mahrez Sterling and Silva, so game Time would be a fight for him. At Chelsea, he would be a starter. He would also start at United but they are in a mess. Pool would also be hard for him and Salah and Mane are not that Injury prone

Bernardo will slide over to replace David Silva I think, and IF they sell Sane, they are deffo a winger light

Mahrez is definitely expendable for City.

I think Leicester and West Ham have better chance to finish top4 than Manchester United.

My only explanation here is that he is United fan and when he saw Auba is going to score he tried to save Utd with calling for offside before action is finished so VAR could not overturn decision. Thanks God Kevin Friend didn't blow the whistle before Auba scored.

There's just so many things wrong about the decision. He's not even guessing, but certain in his mind (going by the VAR directive of keeping your flag down otherwise).

Crazy to think Arsenal would have come away with nothing had Auba stopped.

All EPL refs are shit..........name one that aint utter tosh? I def cant. And its been like this for many many years. Pgmol is corrupt  as fuck, otherwise they would have demoted all of them and promote others from lower League just like what Lige1 in France did.

It is statistically evident that refs are at least subconciously influenced by power patterns as bigger clubs and home teams are generally favoures. In this case the linesman, the utd players and the fans all tried to dissuade Auba from finishing that off so credit to him for staying in the zone. Mark of a true scorer. 

The linesman however should be probed. Not only was he plain wrong, he tried to interfere with play against the policy of letting play on and even continued waving his flag for a few seconds instead of realizing his clear misbehaviour.

In short they are shite to the bone.....FA and PGMOL do shit about it. You are a ref, does not matter which stadium you find yourself in, do you damn job.

B.Silva just got a 6 game ban for his racist comments....

Minimum ban for racial offences.  

 

 

A ban was warranted IMO, though, excessive.
