Man Utd 1-0 Everton, Fernandes pelanty.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Man Utd give up so many chances.

Great save from Pickford off Fernandes' freekick!

Another pelanty for Man Utd.

Everton are so dumb.

I can't really bring myself to care that much, because I can't really bring myself to care that much about football in general anymore, but I can't see how studs to a chest isn't a nailed on foul, in any situation.
He did touch the ball, but only after MacAllister got there first, so I'd argue he didn't "get the ball" but in any case, whether he got the ball or not is completely moo when it comes to reckless/dangerous/endangering the opponent or whatever its called. The same as there being no "intent".... it doesn't matter. That's not the rule.

I think a draw was ultimately fair, as frenetic as it was it wasn't the two teams at their best at all. Both had good chances, both missed good chances. I still think all 3 teams are gonna drop points in the last 10 (?) games.

I'm not entirely sure why but I'm developing an irrational dislike of Foden. And I actually can't explain it as there's nothing to actively dislike, and he is obviously a very very very good footballer. At least my loathing of Pickford, Richarlison and Walker are based on something. Anyhoo...
