It was great to be able to bring on Tielemans, Onana, Pau and SJM. But it's worth pointing out that the only change we made before Ollie scored his second was Cash at half time.

yep, the players that started deserve credit for turning the performance around.  Cash helped, because frankly Garcia was mostly dire, but the other 10 who started deserve huge credit.  I'm sure Unai must have tweaked something, but I wasn't watching intently enough to spot it.

The most ridiculous VAR offside ever according to most unbiased media outlets meaning we unjustly spoilt the party.  Fcuking ace.

Great win, fitting way to end a massive week and a tremendous season.

Well done the lads and Unai, couldn't wish for anymore.

I had never cared less about a game and then absolutely cared about it in all my life.

Some on here thought it wasn't as well. Everyone seems to be judging on the sideview from the automated, when it is the initial one that shows what was offside.





Edit: Blue circle is the last part of the defender. Red line is the part of the body that is ahead of the defender.

It doesn’t particularly look offside to me. Is the red line around his arse relevant to anything. I also don’t care.

The red line is the part of the body offside, so yes pretty relevant. Why post then?

Finished the season giving out a few spankings, and qualified twice for the CL whists seemingly smoking on a Havana cigar. Goodness knows what could have happened if we hadn't lost Kamara/Tielemans/SJM for those few weeks

It's ridiculous to give offside for that, but it was in our favour and after suffering so many shocking decisions against Manc teams I wish he'd been clearly onside.

I mean in terms of right and wrong I don’t care but as a point of interest about the decision I do care.

So how do they work out how far his arse sticks out? I love that we won because someone stuck their arse out.
