8 mins gone in Man Utd v Bournemouth game and Utd well on top. They could score a hatful here.
20mins gone now and how it’s 0-0 is beyond me. Boruc has made 4 good saves, ibrahimovich has missed two he should have scored with and even Bournemouth have had a great chance but Afobe fell over when one on one with the keeper.
1-0 Man Utd. Valencia takes a shot from the edge of the box which is pretty shit but Rojo sticks a foot out and redirects it into the goal. Astonishing that it’s taken 23mins to get the first goal. If both teams keep playing like this there has to be more goals (for man Utd)
Ooohh…penalty to Bournemouth…
Goal!
1-1
Kevin Friend being his usual shit self. Zlatan elbows Mings (after Mings stamps on Zlatan) and ref sends off Surman.
It’s all got a bit nasty…mings stamps on ibrahimovichs head (I think by accident but commentators say on purpose) so Ibra elbows him in head later. And surman gets sent off.
1-1 at half time
Friend lost the plot there, Ibra should be off, Mings was lucky and what did Surman do??
Well I don’t think Friend booked either Zlatan or Mings, so I guess they could both be banned after the match.
That stamp looked so nasty that it surely had to be an accident, but the replay makes it look anything but.
surman pushed ibrahimovich over after the elbow and had already been (wrongly) booked for a challenge on Shaw.
Surman was booked earlier for a tackle (harsh)…in the follow-up after the Ibrahimovic elbow, Surman went over and shoved Ibrahimovic and he fell like a three year-old. Friend booked Surman for the push, not realising he’d already booked him. Only when the fourth official reminded Fried of the first booking did Friend produce the red card.
Needless to say Mings and Ibrahimovic will get retrospective bans…each 3 games at least.
can only see a Man Utd win now Bournemouth down to ten men. They could have scored 4 in the first half.
I dislike tiny town Bournemouth more and more every week. Mainly as they still think we are rivals…
And Jason Tindall, the Bournemouth assistant manager, has been sent to the stands for questioning the referee’s parentage (just kidding about that last bit!!).

BBC Sport at Old Trafford
It is fair to say Bournemouth are not too happy with the officials, with assistant manager Jason Tindall particularly vexed.
He was not happy when Zalatan Ibrahimovic escaped a red card. He was furious when Andrew Surman got one.
First he had a rant at the linesman, then, after the half-time whistle blew, he marched onto the field, ushering Bournemouth’s players away from referee Kevin Friend, whilst also jabbing his finger towards the officials.
He made a few points. Whatever they were, they weren’t complimentary.
This from the BBC
Guidance from Dermot Gallagher at the Premier League Match Centre on events at Old Trafford.
Andrew Surman’s second yellow was for pushing over Zlatan Ibrahimovic after the elbow incident.
Tyrone Mings could face retrospective action for treading on Ibrahimovic while Ibrahimovic could face retrospective action for elbow incident.
Got that?
Oh and Surman was a red (well 2 yellows) but big nose should have gone as well.
Friend will even it up I’m sure (at Old Trafford, yeah, right)
Keep up Kevin. 
Ummm, I live in Bournemouth and I don’t get anything like that from the Bournemouth fans. I think distance has made things seem worse than they are.
And tiny 186k people compared to 236k in Southampton?? (at last census) And 46.9 km2 compared to 51.81 km2
