That Watkins one is an example of a foul in the centre circle that is weirdly never ever given as a penalty. Mysterious.
And then he gives a soft free kick to united

The push on Watkins was a stone cold penalty. Very poor decision.

The fact he pulled his shirt too made the decision even more shocking. Antony Taylor is a shite ref.

It would be nice for us to get a shot in at some point.

Edit: finally from Diaby.

The peroxide twat in midfield for them will do well to finish the game, kicks out at anyone that goes near him.

The first pen shout

For some reason VAR and referees never seem to think two hands on the back and a push is a penalty. Not the first for Watkins this season either.

Sorry I know stats aren't for everyone but 6 of our players have more individual completed passes than their entire team. This is like a non-league team visiting in an early round of the cup.

We do this. It’s fucking a bit lifeless and dull as we try to work out how to break them down. We need more urgency and speed.
