Mind you when I saw the reply I thought it was marginal offside so I dunno what to say. I'll take the 3 points though

If VAR cleared then all good. I thought it was ok but see a bunch of people saying no.

Win is a win.

Still worrying for United tho as you've been very poor for a while now and am still searching for areas of improvement.

Guess you could say your defence was better today?

I thought it was offside too, until I realised that that the angle is deceiving.

The angle gives it a bias - if you look at the different shade of grass (if we assume that’s a straight line) - and compare that to Cavanis head and the defenders foot - it’s very effin marginal, but he’s just onside.

I don't think it's offside. Would love to say it is but really don't think it is. Agree about the foot.

Either way. A result is a result.

Are they saying his shoulder is offside?
Either way Ronaldo was fouled in the box in the first half and it could have been give a penalty .

Not sure why coach is so defensive and posting VAR lines in the banter thread. Cavani’s shoulder looks slightly in front from the VAR lines he has posted .
Now I realise why Moyes was blowing up after the goal was scored.

gotta say so far grealish has been a flop this season at man city, surely has to be the worst signing of the season
Ronaldo is up there .... ;)

But yeah, he's been terrible in all honesty but will win the EPL so ... he'll say it was a success

We'll see mate. Personally think we screwed things up earlier with the amount of draws we've had but football is a funny game.

You are only as good as your next match, so Liverpool need to respond to City's result with a win in a few hours. If, and that's a BIG if, we win our games in hand then being 6 points behind does give us some hope.

How you feeling about the top 4 race? United surely favourites? Spurs with Conte will give it a good shake. You boys the dark horse? Need more cattle imo and think the team that can pick up a quality signing or two in the next week could be the one that makes the difference.

Traore to Spurs? Is that still on?
