Utd's midfield ain't that good, break down their attack and your right at their defence

That was poor goalkeeping 

took a slight deflection but even so....almost like CR7 paid him 😂

Think I'll watch the City game 2nd half...sadly don't see Newcastle making a come back.

First half was really good. City [obviously] having the vast majority of possession but Leicester have defended well and countered dangerously. Both sides playing well.

Harvey Barnes has just hit the bar!

[CFCCAN]

It was a good effort...shame Vardy was a fraction offside for the disallowed goal.

[Scott Harris]

1-1, Newcastle score.

[CFCCAN]

flicked back to the Utd game now that Newcastle have equalized -  Arsenal still 0-0  Wolves 0-0  West Ham 0-0  Southampton 0-0...

I think it was a brilliantly cynical move of the Premier League / FA / whoever decides what the match broadcasts look like to not include any of the VAR decision-making on-screen. I've also noticed that the commentators are tending to refer to it as the 'video assistant' rather than 'VAR'.

It a) doesn't give viewers an opportunity to see how the decisions are being made, b) doesn't allow them to form their own opinions on the incident using anything bar the couple of replays the broadcast gives you (which are often at unhelpful angles) and c) sweeps the whole process into the background so people forget it's happening.

For the disallowed Vardy goal I only saw the live footage (in which I didn't notice he was off) and a single replay, in which I think his shoulder was marginally off but can't be certain due to insufficient evidence.

An effective (if not rather dishonest) way to get people to stop moaning. Unless of course we see the actual screens the referees are using of course!

Newcastle's goalkeeper is absolute dogsh*t. He seems determined to help United.

this barcodes goalie has made some betting today?!

[DidierDrogbalala]

That newcastle goalkeeper should be under investigation after this game.

[Bob stark]

Does Newcastle have new gk? 

Ronaldo scored two but both are gk mistakes. 

[CFCCAN]

Just as well watch Norwich Arsenal now 

[DidierDrogbalala]

Arsenal with an offisde goal....

[PloKoon13]

I think he's some random youngster. Certainly he's third-choice - Dubravka and the other guy (I keep thinking he's Rob Elliot but he's not) are both out.

[Zagger]

Everything going wrong at once. 

sh*t Newcastle keeper.

[Deino]

This Newcastle gk must have bet his life savings on Ronaldo scoring

[Bob stark]

Hearing the commentator talking about United, it is like they beat City 8-0. It is Newcastle at home who play their backup gk who gave united two goals. 

[Gol15]

I like that our match is after all these. Hope Leicester can get a draw but I'm not bothered to watch.

[CFCCAN]

We just have to win later that's all...

[Deino]

Come on Norwich, score two against these lot!
