Bournemouth really battered them huh

[wampa1]

When Bournemouth scored the 4th the commentator said Ten Hag was heading towards his biggest defeat as Man United manager....

Well 4 is on it's way to 7 in fairness...

[CHOPPER]

Dear Points of View,

While watching match of the day on Saturday 9th December, during the Manchester United versus Bournemouth premier league game, just after Bournemouth had scored their 4th goal (which was subsequently disallowed for being Ar-eh it’s dead tight on the mancs), your commentator referenced this being Erik Seven Hahahag’s heaviest ever defeat, which, is factually incorrect and I think the BBC should make a public correction and apology and state what factually is, Erik Seven Hahahag’s heaviest ever defeat, and by whom.

Assume they meant home defeat cos Brentford put 4 past them last season, city 6 I think too

Fair fucks to MOTD for actually giving a balanced view of our game and rightly pointing out Palace can't complain as it was a soft penalty and not a clear and obvious error. TNT, take note.

Love Wrighty.

[Paul JH]

Long may this completely ignoring us as title winners continue in the media / TV.

MOTD ... didn't once mention that A. We went top B. ARE top and C. Our wins, losses and GD are better than any other side.

Not once. Please continue allowing us to be underrated.

[Vegeta]

I am not surprised Iraola has turned it around at Bournemouth top class coach did an impressive job at Rayo and he had a very good record over there against the top half sides especially away from home.

Love Wrighty.

He was still bitter about the Jesus one that wasn't given, even if both looked a bit similar contact wise.

[B0151?]

Got to love them complaining about goals getting scored by hand being disallowed when I swear when that wasn't a rule they were moaning about goals getting scored with accidental handballs. Well I remember when Suarez scored after one in the FA Cup they were moaning about how harsh and unfair it was. And think there was a couple others in refs Prem.

I would rather that from one of our ex-pros than the likes of Macca and Carra sticking the boot in by going out of their way to appear objective.

v Mansfield I think, and the commentator (Jon Champion?) openly called Suarez a cheat after the replay. His exact words I recall were "the actions of a cheat" despite the ball clearly deflecting up onto his hand and it being clearly accidental.

The word ‘nefarious’ was definitely involved as well!

Lineker even introduced the villa v arsenal game on the show as “ leaders Arsenal” , really Gary , had you not seen the result of the early kick off involving Crystal Palace and the premier league leaders LIVERPOOL

In fairness, if the Arsenal game was on before ours, then he'd have been spoiling the result of ours for anyone that hadn't seen it at that point.

Yes that’s a fair point

[The G in Gerrard]

Shay Given looks thoroughly depressed with Newcastle's results of late SHAME.

[Crosby Nick]

Great goal from Harry Wilson. Made a good career for himself after leaving us.

Video of Shay Given looked on in disgust as Salah scored his screamer vs Chelsea but still got time eating his dinner.

Flipping hell Him, Richards.... What's wrong with these people.

[Black Bull Nova]

Dignified when he scored against us as well, tidy little player, good manager as well (except for Everton of course) who also turned down the Saudi money

13 goals in a week for them and 2 clean sheets, decent team

Mad how them and Bournemouth (and annoyingly Everton) have now got their act together. Makes you think there were be that many cruises for any of the sides near the top, nearly every game can get tricky.

Christ there's more blue seats than people at the Etihad.

I noticed they never "looked" at Edersons challenge in the post match.

[Red_Mist]

Wrighty stepping down at the end of the season.

https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/67736470.amp

Shame as it always feels he’s got a bit of a soft spot for us.

[redtel]

Sorry to have heard this.

We haven’t many friends in the media which is London/Manchester based and Wrighty always had us as his second team I think. Let’s hope there is a decent replacement as Shearer, Richards and Given is a horrible combination for us.

Good luck Wrighty in whatever you decide to do.

[Legs]

Wrighty is a good guy not just because he defends us but he just looks like he enjoys it too.

Compare him to some of the others who look like they've had their house took off them !!

Probably use Leon Osman more another beige pundit.

I can only echo that, mate.

He'll be missed on there - a big loss for MOTD.

[Vegeta]

He's the only good pundit that's on the show never has any agenda or bias in his comments and is always very complimentary towards Liverpool.

Massive loss for MOTD

Couldn’t have put it better.

I don’t know if he has a soft spot for us in particular, I think he just likes watching teams that play good football, which is what we’ve been doing for several years now. He always has good things to say about Salah - as any sane person without an agenda would.

Shame that most of the pundits they have on are more towards the Keown and Shearer end of the scale, and unable to take their blinkers off when watching us.

[Elzar]

Surely been offered a spot on Sky or TNT

Seems he's retired from football punditry according to what he said here.

"Ultimately, it's time to do a few more different things with my Saturdays," the former England striker said.

[Gili Gulu]

I'll miss Wrighty too, he has a soft spot for us which came through, and he's very good on communicating how the pros think about the game.

Enjoy the Grandkids, golf and weekend breaks away while you're still fit.
I think one of his lads has a young family in the States. I wouldn't be surprised if he starts popping up on US Premier League Coverage on the odd occasion.

[Pistolero]

Grim news... literally the only MOTD pundit I don't automatically fast forward through....always speaks from the heart..a genuine football fan and all-round boss fella.... Shudder to think of the list of phoney arsewipes lined up to fill his shoes...

I’ve heard Jenas has started wearing glasses and a cap.

[gerrardisgod]

Hopefully he keeps doing the women’s games, can see he enjoys it and it brings over a bit of an added audience.

I haven't watched MOTD for ages and I won't for this reason.

A cheerleader for Saudi Arabia sportswashing.
A cheerleader for Abu Dhabi sportswashing.
A cheerleader for both Saudi Arabia and Abu Dhabi sportswashing.

Fuck that. Fuck them. Fuck MOTD. Fuck the BBC.

[Mister Flip Flop]

One of the few decent ones but then again I haven't listened to a pundits in years now so who knows.

Similar to whenever I hear Ally McCoist on commentary.

No agenda or bias, just a genuine love and enthusiasm for the game. A loss for MOTD for sure.
