That is an absolutely disgusting decision.

I say it every week, but the standard of officials in this country for the so called worlds best league is laughable.

That should be given without VAR, the fact they had 50 looks at it and still didn't given it boggles my mind.
Only took 3 days for this to be flagged up again, in more than one game.

Martial himself said it wasn't a penalty and that was pointed out to Mike Dean by the looks of it?!

I don't think Luiz deserved a red card either, the rules don't make any sense.

Very evenly matched game I thought...

Anyone shed any light on why Bednarek got sent off for Martial diving?

9 is becoming my least favourite number. What a shambles.

So many talking points but 1 minute 22 seconds into your debut is going to take some recovering from. Much as my initial reaction was "what an idiot", the lad will really be knocked by it so I hope the club and supporters help him recover
Not sure why Jan got sent off or why Che's goal was disallowed but that should not detract from a shameful performance.
Our squad was already threadbare, but now some of the young lads have got to really step up in the next couple of games

Felt sorry for you guys in the end (as a United fan). Everything went wrong and you were slaughtered for it. Felt like a boxer knocking an opponent down and then keeping on hitting him until the end of the round.

There were some unflattering comments from fans on Facebook last night, some going so far as to say his reaction afterward was such that it was done out of spite for the rejected transfer request. Can't see him being in favour either by management or by fans and should imagine he might be off to pastures new promptly, albeit we can ill afford to offload players right now.

Makes the decision to let Valery go look rather silly.

Only saw the 2nd half, and we performed well.

Can I just say what a treat it was to see Salisu getting his debut, and a fairly decent one at that!

And also that Tella offered more in the 5 minutes he was on than Redmond has all season.

It was a relief to see us play much better and nice to be in the quarter finals. really liked the flick by Ings over the defenders head and he nearly buried it. Shades of Matt Le Tissier

Redmond really should be sold. He huffs and puffs a lot for no real contribution. I'd start Tella over him any day.
