I had a hard time seeing what happened to him. They didn't show the replay for awhile and, when they did, I still couldn't see exactly where he got hit. It is no surprise that he really got hammered on the play but I am amazed that he stayed on the pitch for several more minutes.

Yeah, he got absolutely trucked and was pissed off when they pulled him. When he stayed on I was thinking he just had the wind knocked out of him because there was no reason to keep him on the pitch at that point.

I had been hoping that Arsenal would score before City and so be on top of the live table, if only for a short spell. MC 1-0 WHU 90 seconds in.

That one would be par for the course for United ownership as the fans certainly aren't onboard with this move. They are getting push back on this so it will be interesting to see how it plays out.
