    Here's another messed-up stat I read - and I'll do a quick bit of Google soon as it seems insane that this could be true -

    "Fernandes has scored 21 penalties for United, that's more than Eric Cantona (18), Cristiano Ronaldo (16), and Denis
    Irwin (12) among many others.

    Currently Fernandes is third among United's all-time penalty goalscorers.

    Wayne Rooney has 27, and Ruud van Nistelrooy scored 28 spot kicks."

    He has been there for a season and a half(?!?!) so it is ridiculous that he has had so many opportunities. Delighted Klopp called the refs out on how many they were getting and I hope he does so again early doors in 21/22.

    I often go on about it.. But midfield in the most vital part of any team. Your attacking midfielder really needs to do a lot of work off the ball and help out the other 2 midfielders.. I don't see how you get Pogba and Fernandes in the same 11.
    We lack goals from midfield.. but we have gotten back to a more solid foundation with Fabhino/Thiago and Wini of late.
    with Bobby helping out.Makes us very compact..Shame about Wijnaldum leaving. But he was offered a new contract and declined so was his choice.

    Speaking of penalties, Solskjaer makes 5 subs, 4 of them in extra-time, presumably for the benefit of the penalty shoot-out.

    De Gea, who stays on the pitch, last saved a penalty in 2016 - 25 faced since then, all conceded.

    Henderson on the other hand has saved 8 in the same spell - against 17 faced, so Henderson saves roughly HALF of penalties faced.

    Did Ole sub De Gea off to get Henderson on? Of course not.

    Brilliant.

    Wow that makes for terrible reading on Ole's part.

    Almost as if he isn't a top Manager.

    Woodward apparently wants to extend his deal by 3 more years.

    I think they should give him another 5 years

    Careful what you wish for.

    Fergy did far worse in his fist 3 years and judging by how many dodgy decisions they get with Ole - I do worry.
