OTF

We're holding our shape well though (even before they went down to 10). Let's hope the.second half continues in the same vein and that we convert the pressure and chances into more goals so we can rest some legs ahead of our next game on Tuesday at Old Trafford.

Yep, remember Brereton for Southhampton. That sort of absolute cheating is why football is broadly mocked in certain circles.

Dodgy diving prick, Villa really doing a PR hit job on themselves.

So close!

Specsavers for Isak?

Nice pass Joelinton, Isak with the air swing under a bit of pressure. Would be grand to get a second before half time.

Quality ball from Schär, Gordon should have hit it on the volley.

I wonder if he'll try to hide behind the usual manager's line about not having seen the replay when he's asked about it.

Some patience though first, let's hold our shape, run them ragged, and then reap the rewards when they're tired.

Unai Emery not so loud watching that replay.

Right call, no way VAR will overturn that. What a dodgy cunt, that's what happens when your captain is McGinn.

Oo err

Another Swiss Army manoeuvre by Fab.

Bad ebening.

Isak making McGinn look a right tit (and also a cunt).

The old even up, but going to ground like that was a bit silly in that position.

Fuck off McGinn you offside cunt

He's a terrible player

Easy yellow card decision.

We are pushing extremely high up the pitch.

He was miles offside anyway.

Martinez is a dick but one of the best keepers in the world and he had not a chance there.

You beauty Gordon!

Merry Christmas you wonderfully curmudgeon bastards! Hope it's a good one for one and all. Weather has been fantastic in Sydney, 27ish degrees currently (6PM), preparing to commence more heavy eating shortly.
