Re: Positives from Saturday
The main thing is that we now look like we’ve found our feet at this level. We have actually improved for most of the season in general play. I don’t think we have ever looked as consistently dangerous at Old Trafford in our premier league years, even when we nicked our win.

Re: Only 1 from 3 will survive !!!
Strange things happen at this stage of the season. Let’s hope Sheff U play like they did yesterday for the first half because that will give Forest a game tbh.
Let’s hope they remember that Billy Sharp punch. No love lost there which is good for us.

Re: Penalty for Arsenal
Foul for me. However there is no consistency. When there’s a slight touch on the leg they tend to give it as VAR slows the thing down to show a touch. If the touch is on the ball we don’t do that then? They make it up as they go along.

No issue with him letting the game flow and not have yellows. However, this needs to be applied across all matches. You don’t have to go back very far to see the polar opposite being applied. That’s the biggest problem, consistency, of which there is very little.

City have been in profit since making a loss of circa 130m in the COVID season so they haven’t breached the 105m loss over 3 consecutive seasons threshold since those rules were in force.
Both Chelsea and City have good accountants ensuring that they appear within the limits.
