FA Cup Final

Arsenal vs Aston Villa

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:31 am

It's so devoid of common sense. Oliver has turned his back on him as he gives a decision Di Maria is aggrieved with. My general feeling is if you wouldn't book someone for it on a player then it's really not a booking. It's not threatening or an attack

by Guest Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:31 am

Stupid Man U fans. Pathetic diving all over the place, embarrassing.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:31 am

That is absolutely disgraceful from Januzaj

How did he know who touched him given they were behind him, didnt take much time to think. Assistant also on that side.

Assistant would of told him plus it doesn't take a genius to figure who considering he was directly behind him

Assistant on the wrong side and Rooney was closer to him.

He has basically made a decision on something he couldn't have possibly seen.

We've been crap tonight. Mistakes have cost us but the red has been awful.

Another correct decision by Oliver.

by Fernando Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:32 am

Michael Oliver has done well Laugh

by mystiroakey Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:32 am

Omg . Worst Dive of the century..

Why?? Juanzi you plumb

by Ent Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:32 am

God januzaj has gone downhill.

Why is he diving he is through in the box.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:32 am

There is a foul there, ref, you can't ignore one because of the other! Arghhhhhh this is my problem with the stupid diving debate.

Ramsey should be booked twice there

I think he's had a great game..

by Ent Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:33 am

Send Ramsay off.

Through the ball away after his foul.

by Fernando Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:34 am

Im just waiting for Fellaini to elbow Coquelin again.

Done brilliantly tonight in my opinion. Will be universally praised for this performance, regardless of what idiots on here are sprouting.

by Fernando Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:35 am

5 mins added time

MOTM options according to Beeb - Coquelin, Cazorla & Rooney

by **hampo17** Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:35 am

People moan all the time when a referee makes a wrong decision, people on here tonight are moaning that he's made a right one. Who'd be a referee?

by mystiroakey Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:35 am

Yep agreed . Top ref performance tonight

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:35 am

I disagree and I'm neither a man united fan or an idiot.

I would rather call anyone he goes insane over diving an idiot

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:36 am

David De Gea is the best player in England

by Fernando Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:36 am

Valencia is a dummy, Alexis was jogging with the ball and barged him over.

I wasn't being sarcastic. I'm usually the first to have ago at officials but I think MR Oliver has done well tonight

Agreed, he's had a cracking game. The sending off especially as we saw a ref prepared to stand up to the players

The amount of diving is ludicrous, both Di Marias and Januzaj's were awful

LVG out? Whistle

How did Adams do? Whistle

by NickisBHAFC Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:38 am

Even we gave Arsenal a better game than United have! We didn't even dive once!

by Fernando Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:39 am

Great save by De Gea from Alexis

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:39 am

And you'll find I am a United fan, there's more than one. Or are you a a Man City fan?

He hasn't thoigh, he has been extremely poor.

Ignore the red card situation and he missed lots of fouls and made mistakes with his cards.

Too many fixated on the red card, think it was a pathetic decision by a very weak referee, moments earlier had given a free kick to Arsenal after a Sanchez dive, Coquelin fouling Fellaini constantly all game, silly little fouls here and there going unpunished, not sending off Bellerin etc.

by Ent Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:43 am

Pathetic.

Can't win football games if you make poor errors at the bavk and create bugger all goin forward.

Terrible. Was easy for arsenal.

by Mike Selig Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:43 am

Think the ref has done a very good job in an incredibly tough match to ref and control.

The Di Maria sending off was absolutely correct. Hopefully the FA will back it up and we may at some stage stop seeing the intimidation of referees which must be a barrier to recruitment.

The only real big call I thought he got wrong was the free-kick on Wellbeck in the first half.

Man Utd only have themselves to blame. Not good enough tonight.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:44 am

I didn't think he had a good game, regardless of the big decision. There's plenty of mistakes throughout the game, the big one shouldn't cloud it either way

by Fernando Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:44 am

LVG post match interview will be hilarious.

Think what might get lost in this is LVG's poor halftime subs, United were playing well first half and then bizarrely brings on Carrick to play alongside Blind, two guys who want to do the same sort of job, no breaking from midfield, allowed Arsenal to just sit in and screen Rooney out the game second half.

Then didn't get why he didn't bring on Falcao and go two up top

Spent 200 million and I can't see an improvement on last year......Difference is this guy has nicked a few wins..

Can't see you finishing top 4..

by Duty281 Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:52 am

Stupendous refereeing from Oliver, absolutely wonderful stuff under enormous pressure. clap

And Arsenal win as expected - I put some money on, but didn't want to jinx it!

Oxlade showed beautiful flashes of his potential, as well.

No, it's the chance for revenge for the three goalkeepers. Not that I'm bitter and twisted about that whatsoever Whistle

Thats gone WHOOSH right over your head. I'm a United fan, a West Ham United fan. Its like saying Olly is a Man City fan cos he would want Norwich City to win a game.

So, no, I don't think we'll finish top four, but Sam is probably not focusing on that right now!

by Azzy Tue Mar 10, 2015 8:57 am

That was a superb cup tie. De Gea was immense, Rooney's goal was stunning, di Maria and Januzaj with two awful dives. For Arsenal, a solid win, two very good CB performances, and what about that piece of control by Sanchez?

Liverpoo vs Arsenal final in the offing if all goes with league position. I'd quite like to see that.
