Clear penalty. And proof you have to go down to get them given.

United have to put in a performance against City on Wednesday. Having been battered by the blue-nosers today, they owe their fans, the owe Ole and they owe it to themselves. Busby must be turning in his grave.

And with Arsenal and Spurs losing today, Top 4 is still realistic.

Strange how it's never a dive when their players do it.

He's probably still smarting from Utd getting a kicking.

Comes down to Wednesday for me.

Said they'd win all their remaining games, will gladly be proved wrong.

They're just super unlucky, the refs never give them anything and always help the other team, as well as us and Arsenal.

Anyone saying dive is just daft.

Solid performance... We`re going to have to win every game to have a chance, and we look like that's a good possibility.

Really happy with that result.

It's a dive... but a clear penalty too. Blocking him from going to either side. I've seen less cuddling in a rom-com.

Big result that. Cardiff can still stay up and can be hard to beat.

The "Race" for the top 4 seems to be a slow one.

Its always been about the Manchester derby return fixture since January.

We were always going to drop points ourselves - thats what the cushion was there for and it was only balancing out the earlier points City lost. Both teams have been that equal and level since the start of the season really, so the game to have circled in red from the end of Jan was the City away to UTD game.

End of the day chaps, win or not - we have taken the "allegedly"best team the Prem has ever seen to the wiriest of the wire.

And as for Barca? On toast. Home and away.

He has both arms round him, pulling him back. Ref should have given it before he went down.

When you think what Lovren or hendo got pens given against them for it makes no sense that’s not a clear pen and a card.

Great result, we like goals from midfield smile

He was being fouled, so it's a 100% penalty.

But it was a dive.

Salah is a strong lad, he could've stayed in his feet if he wanted to, but didn't.

Had he stayed on his feet the ball would've gone out of play and he wouldn't have got anything.

So he had to go down to get a pen.

We love a good excuse don't we. We won lads!

Whatever City say there's pressure on them now. They're the favourites, it's in their hands and if Utd can be arsed to turn up they're capable of giving them a game at Old Trafford.

The reality is they'll score within 5 mins and walk away with it.

He did stay on his feet in the first grapple - he went down after the 2nd, and frankly until Refs start penalising grappling in the box again, he needed to go down to get it.

That's what we're all saying. It was a clear pen. However Salah did go down very easily, as nothing was being given up to that point.
