i didn't see the game so i won't comment on the Nani goal just yet but it seems as if it was all legit. One thing i will say is that every time a player dives Drogba's name comes up, yes he was poor in the past but i would say i haven't seen him dive in over 2 seasons now. Good win for Utd but was more than likely going to happen, Spurs record against Utd is woeful. Ivanovic's goal looks much bigger now than it did at the time. Title race is hotting up now catch us if you can lads.

i didnt think it was a dive today, but more than once he has gone down. But it is very frustrating, and like you say its time we saw more conviction in stamping it out.
the Nani goal for people who didn't see it.

Now i have seen it i will say what a complete **** up and lack of consentration by Gomes. It wasen't a free-kick so the ball was in open play so Nani has a right to go for the ball. If anythink it was a major **** up by Gomes and smart play by Nani.
Firstly I will say I think we deserved the 3 points today. Played quite well and looked comfortable.
On Nani's goal, couldn't really see it from where I was sitting although looking at the replay it is clear it was a hand ball. Debatable whether it was a pen, either way Nani played to the whistle so fair play.
Great result and buzzing for Turkey on Monday and game on Tuesday.

Nani needed fletcher and scholes to shout at him though as he had no clue what was going on

are you going and if so how much has that set you back then?
Well thats bollocks. Fletcher and Scholes both knew it should have been a free kick, as did Nani. Fletcher was shouting at him do get back as they knew Gomes was going to launch it, not telling him to try and score. Jheeze
Cannot wait to hear Ian Holloway's view on this incident
Proberbly go on about how its WRONG to question man utd goals

they were telling him to score when he was right on the ball, if you watch the replay you will see this
I can only assume regarding the goal, that Clattenburrg has seen Nani's handball but given advantage(he was not clear with Gomes about this, another Refereeing error) so then when Gomes put the ball down and Nani puts it in the net, then it should be brought back as a free kick to us as we have gained no advantage??
Or if he hasn't seen the free kick then it's a disgrace as the linesman has seen it as when gomes went running over clapping his hands together, the linesman clearly said "I know" so if he knows then the ref knows but has chosen to still give the goal. Disgracefull.
Also, if it wasn't a free kick, then Man Utd should have had a indirect free kick as Gomes picked the ball up twice.
To summarize, we've been ****** over
Somebody needs to ******* stand up to Man Utd. Grow a backbone, Redknapp, Levy. DO somthing...
So if your team had conceded that goal, you'd be perfectly happy and have no complaints about it.
Bollocks.
and you remember how much they were complaining then as well when at one point it wasn't given
Nowhere near as contreversial as this one. Gallas was offside for our goal against goal, but i dont think that he was actually interfeering as he wasn't in the goalies eyeline. Schwarzer was not going to get anywhere near Huddlestones goal anyway.
