Glad to see the ref not checking the screen himself, that's the one bit I don't like in the Dutch system.

Yup takes too much time and also harder to see on a small screen. And ref might even make mistakes there when he tries to do it quickly and under pressure.

Though the BuLi system also allows the main ref to look at a screen, but I suspect it will very rarely be used if ever.

Tammy looks like he is not out of place upfront for Swansea. He could have been our 3rd choice this season for sure. However i guess it is better he gets to play for a season for Swansea then come back next season.

Sorry but no. This is where the Jose rule applies. If you support a team that always parks the bus when playing opposition that is remotely dangerous you are not allowed to complain about inferior teams doing the same to you.

The last couple minutes shows why Swansea parked the bus haha. Those attacking subs they made just completely destroyed their structure at the back.

Did you watch any of the games vs the top 6 last season?
You cant park bus losing 5-0 to Chelsea no, nor when you got hammered by Spurs.
But Liverpool game, hello? The worst game of the season?

Oh add in Europa League when Mourinho figured you have to win that competition, you started defending and not losing games before trying to win them, mourinho style. Which is fine, wining is wining

hammered by spurs?
2-2 over both legs is getting hammered?
4-0 to chelsea was worst defeat of season and we beat you 2-0 on our home leg in which we definitely didnt park the bus, we just outplayed you.
liverpool game was a terrible game but it wasnt either team parking the bus from what i remember. the players on both teams were just shit and missed chances everywhere

the only times we parked the bus was when we went away to big teams, and that was because we were desperate to salvage a point because of all the draws we got from teams parking the bus against us. i wouldnt say 'parking the bus' is something you could associate mou's man utd with because of those few games. we hated van gaal for a reason; his football was boring as fuck to watch and we didnt identify with that style. we hated mous chelsea also for being anti-football and likewise boring to watch, regardless of its effectiveness. i dont think youll find many united fans complaining about how our team plays now. we complain about the end result but the style we play in is much more enjoyable to watch than the last few years.
if anything the way we play now is still much more reminiscent of van gaal's united, which sure as hell wasnt sitting back and inviting pressure onto us whilst hoping for counters

"We only park the bus if we play against top teams"

"This inferior team sucks because parking the bus against us"

To repeat, if you consider parking the bus a legitimate tactic if teams are a threat to you then you cannot bitch about worse teams doing it against you.

firstly, you changed your initial point to suit your argument. you said we park the team against every opposition and i called you out on it. we dont.
secondly, you are altering what i said, again to suit your argument. we dont park the bus against every top team in every game unlike what you are trying to make it look like i said. i also didnt say the inferior team sucked. i said the game sucked because nothing was happening, which was a perfectly valid observation until they did open up in the end and got smashed with 3 goals.

No he said park the bus vs sides who are competitive. Swansea are not that. Every game you played vs the top 6 you started defensively and had to change due to conceding very early etc etc.
You went into Europa League and realised you need that to win it to get into champions league and Mourinho again took the i am not going to get beat first mentality aka park the bus and whatever, which is fine, but sneirac is saying you cannot complain when a team does that vs you lol
Your club does it, whether it is 4 games a season or 38, you do it, you are man utd...

Also from minute 50-70 Swansea were the only ones who looked like they were about to score and had all be it mostly half chances, with better quality they could have easily equalised in that game. Lukaku then woke up on the 80TH! minute to score and the game was over. 4-0 flatters you to say the least in that game!
Lets not start pretending Yanited been winning games 4-0 every week and dont park the bus and whatever!
