@DuncanCastles: Interesting to contrast the added added time Man City received at Bournemouth with Man United's at Huddersfield. Small margins can matter.

The ref wasn't exactly amazing was he? I am not saying that he was biased, but he was just rubbish.

A few things I'd like him to explain.

First the drop ball thing where the first incident, Lingard landing on the ball after being pushed was a free kick to Huddersfield. A few moments later when your player does it, it's a drop ball. Why were these treated differently?

The bookings. He booked 2 of your players early and one of ours. Then proceeded to let hacks go unpunished on both sides until Mooy was punished on Valencia. This after Mooy and Valencia had fouled players getting round them shortly after the first 3 bookings. It makes no sense

Going back to the Lingard on the ball incident, he was pushed over in front of the linesmen. A few minutes earlier he gave a free kick against Lukaku for the exact same thing. They were identical incidents.

There was also the penalty claim on Herrera, which personally I thought would have been on the softer side. However he was giving freekicks for far less. I honestly can't see how most of his decisions could be explained
