The obvious difference is that the Burnley game was played the full 90 minutes so Man U can expect a huge fine for this. The worst outcome for us would be if they awarded Liverpool a win or declared it a draw but a 10 points deduction would still leave Man U above us so not sure why anyone would want that.
Rearranging the fixture is going to be a bit tricky, Man U have a midweek match every week between now and the end of the season although the Premier League seem to think they can manage it.
Maybe shift Man U v Leicester from Wednesday 12th to Tuesday 11th (Leicester play Friday 7th and Saturday 15rh) and play Liverpool Thursday 13th (Liverpool don't have anything midweek, next match Sunday 16th).
Adrian Chiles is the worst presenter ever to be associated with televised football bar none.
Yes, our match was played. A difference though is that the protest happened in the stadium and during a game. With Man U, the fans were outside. ( I know some of them stormed / broke into the stadium later, but will the PL or FA hold the club accountable in the same way for what some people did in a public area?)
Gutted.
Its Coming Home
Perhaps someone needs to refuse to play one of the big six and see what happens.
As Alderz says, UEFA, FA, Premier League, etc will not punish any of the big clubs.
Maybe the authorities are still wading through the legal ramifications of points deductions or European bans, but I suspect it's more a case of them already knowing what the financial ramifications of those measures are and sweeping the whole sorry mess under the carpet.
Who played the false 9, was it Sterling or was he on the left of a 3?
That said, KDB was quite often the most further forward, so I think he and Bernardo were rotating.
Sterling was benched again.
Assumed Sterling was playing 🤦♂️
Love a false 9 😂
Walker Stones Diaz Zinchenko
Bernardo Fernandinho Gundogan
Mahrez Foden KDB
but they were very fluid, and even more so when PSG got ragged in the 2nd half.
Next thing they will be playing Monkey Rush....
Can't understand how Lopes the Lyon keeper wasn't sent off for punching Pellegrini in the face when trying to clear the ball which he missed. All the referee did after VAR was give him a yellow card and award a penalty, was it down to the double jeopardy rule? For those who didn't see it the match finished with five players being sent off, Lyon were already down to ten when the penalty was given, Lyon won it with a goal in the last minute of normal time 3-2.
I think Sully had arranged it for Pellegrini wasting £81m on Haller and Anderson
