Unfortunately for us, crazy VAR decisions over the weekend have overshadowed the inept performance of the Aussie referee at Southampton. Webb is supposed to be calling a meeting of all the referees this week at St Georges Park, to try ang achieve consistency. Good luck with that.
We loose a player for a ***** home game against Bournemouth on Saturday as no appeal is possible. If he was booked for running to the referee in an aggressive manner, I look forward to Man United having several players sent off next game.
I was very impressed with the finish by Gomes, side footing the ball into the top half of the net, a day before his twenty second birthday. He looks a player , let us hope he can build on on this start. Costa also made an impact when he came on, he does need a goal though.
The new manager and his team certainly have had a positive impact on the club within a few weeks.
