Great attitude from Alex Scott. Omitted from England squad. Focuses, goes out and shows all his strengths in and out of possession for 90 mins for Bournemouth against Manchester United. Only 22, England opportunity will come again with mindset and ability like his. #BOUMUN

Decisions, decisions. Amad Diallo was a penalty. That gets given as a free-kick anywhere else on the pitch. It’s even more a penalty than the Matheus Cunha penalty (which was a pen, however “soft”). Amad was just less theatrical. Penalty not given. Wrong decision. Harry Maguire was a penalty and red card. DOGSO. Penalty and red card given. Correct decision.
Understandable debate over the decisions and inevitable frustration for Manchester United. But United have benefited from decisions that go their way this season. All clubs have these issues, examples, frustrations. The main issue here is …
1) General standard of officiating in the Premier League. Amad decision was poor. Even more investment required in grass-roots refereeing, in fast-tracking talent, in training up academy graduates who don’t make it as pros, and in continued work to improve further the Select Group refs. PL has some good officials. Just need more.
2) Football belongs to fans, not officials. Fans deserve to know what is going on in real time. When decision/incident being discussed by officials, audio should be played live. The authorities don’t want to, feel it places too much pressure on officials so content themselves with brief explanation when announcing decision and clarification on PL Match Centre. Fans in the stadium and tuning in pay a lot for tickets and subscriptions, respectively, and shouldn’t be kept in the dark.
Audio works well in rugby union and cricket (and acknowledging those sports have more pauses in play). l went to a VAR demonstration (not PL) earlier this week given by an elite official. Hearing the audio between officials gave insight into the process - and respect for what they are dealing with at speed, especially with players trying to con them.
You are never going to get complete consistency over decisions. There’s always going to be an element of subjectivity with so many incidents. But fans deserve more transparency and accountability. It might restore some trust. #BOUMUN

(Of course, Attwell has form for this after giving an incorrect foul - noted as completely incorrect by the EPL incident panel - in January which denied United the win. Is he just incompetent again or is he taking some revenge after being called out by the panel as being incompetent? Either way, WTF PGMOL?)
-
I stand corrected - he’s decided to send Maguire off for an Evanilson dive after much less contact than on Cunha and not even a fraction of the wrestling and pushing that took Amad down.
You cannot watch this game and come to the conclusion that these are fair decisions made with a coherent understanding of the rules. It’s just corruption, plain and simple.

Honestly one of the most shamefully thumb-on-the-scale decisions I’ve seen since, well, ok, the last Liverpool or Arsenal match but you get the idea.
Absolutely disgraceful cheating from the match officials.

If the simple pull on Cunha is a penalty, the push, trip, and wrestle to the ground on Amad must also be a penalty because it was far more egregious.
But not according to VAR. WTF PGMOL? And they've scored from that foul.

MU are slight favorites in a tight PL duel with BOU; expect a lively, competitive night with chances at both ends. Kickoff 21:00 UTC+01:00.
AFC Bournemouth 30.3%
Draw 30.6%
Manchester United 39.1% -
The ref is letting a lot of Bournemouth's, let's say, "physicality" go. Going to be a miracle if Garnacho survives the match without injury given the (unpunished) kicking he's getting. Also the yellow card for the studs up challenge on Garnacho has been VAR'd to red many times this season. What's the point of playing if you're never sure from one game to the next what the officials are going to deem worthy of punishment?
(Don't get me wrong - United have been absolute dross this season. The manager is out of his depth, his tactics are terrible, the players have no idea what they're doing, injuries have been unfortunate, etc. but there's definitely been a lot of dodgy decisions against them which has exarcebated the problems. Much like some teams have had a lot of dodgy decisions going for them. Probably nothing to do with PGMOL making up for a wildly incorrect offside decision from VAR last season though. Probably.)

Dominic Solanke scored his 17th Premier League goal of the season, the most ever scored by a Bournemouth player in a single campaign.
Only Erling Haaland (20) and Ollie Watkins (18) have more in the competition in 2023-24.
