Why are the extra officials on the same side as the linesman? 

I recall them being on the other side during the trial but then switched when it became a permanent thing. It just seem illogical not to get a fuller view of the penalty box by having the officials spread across it.

Absolutely shocking. Although from the refs viewpoint, the defender puts his leg forward at the time Sterling trips up and he must have thought that he clipped his heels.

He should've confessed. Get himself some good PR, they'll win by a few anyway.

It's always done my nut in aswell, but there is an actual explanation for it. It's because refs are trained to run down the left channel apparently... but that contradicts itself because surely the reason they're told to run down the left channel is because it's the opposite side to the linesman

Find it hard to believe Man United paid £90m or whatever it was for Pogba, hopeless.

Theres certainly a player in there but it was interesting what Darren  Fletcher was saying about him the other day on MNF. Basically he has ability but doesnt have the discipline to operate within a team structure.  If you dont give him a free role hes a shadow of himself. Mourinho would never give any player that role.
