Mark Noble is something else. Lol!

That was crazy... wonder what Pogba said to him.

There's the Man U we know and love.

not a red for sure.

At least De Gea finally has a golden glove.

That was just weird. I was hoping for punches.

Re: The 2017-2018 EPL Discussion Thread

If Pogba was the one grabbing Noble's face he'd be looking at a 6 game suspension and Paul Merson would be calling for him to be publicly executed.

0 games. IIRC he didn't even receive a yellow card even though the referee is staring right at this.

Noble should have probably seen red for what he did, but we shouldn't act like the FA comes down on Pogba for stuff like this.

Yeah, that's why Pogba only got a yellow for his awful attempt at a tackle.

This face grab was still worse than the Pogba/Henderson throw though, and way too blatant for the FA to ignore. That being said, Noble will probably escape punishment, but I bet you Pogba wouldn't.

Also, Merson had a fit about the Pogba throw, he was just one of the only ones.

That's Allen with Stoke, not Hendo.

In any case, Noble is lucky that Pogba didn't feel like ending him right there because he definitely could have.

Ahahaha

Looks like I mixed up my "Pogba throwing someone by the neck and escaping punishment" incidents.

Anyway, maybe I should change my original comment from "Pogba" to "insert non-United/Liverpool player here"

If that was Costa instead of Noble they'd deport him immediately and fine Chelsea.

I think if he did Carol wold have taken Pogba out and it would have turned into a huge mess with many players swinging.


I personally think Pogba is a dirty player. But I actually think he was the bigger man in this situation and did the right thing. He started to engage with Noble and then thought better of it.


And I'm sure nothing happens to Noble. Mainly because hes English.


Also whats up with all the weird extra spacing being added to posts today?

You usually get an automatic red card for putting your hands to someones face.

Re: The 2017-2018 EPL Discussion Thread

I agree with you ZO for the most part, but imo a dirty player is someone who regularly commits dirty plays with genuine intent.

Pogba is hot-headed and when things aren't going his way he loses his head, but that is different from someone like Adam/Yakob/Huth/Fellaini/Barry etc.

I mean, if it came out that John Moss's halftime routine was shotgunning beers while eating several pies would it surprise you?
