On that controversial call in #MUNNEW, there was no communication on PL Match Centre so we're all still speculating.
Many back the decision, including ex-refs, solely on the fact that the ball hit Martinez's chest before his arms, citing this as a rule.
Except, it's not.

When I heard there'd be one game moved to Boxing Day, I knew it would be our game because of this (plus our record and their record on Boxing Day and how inconvenient it would be for me). #nufc #MUNNEW #PL x.com/i/status/200...

I............ really don't know what to make of this result.
it would have been nice if we managed it against better sides than one of the worst away teams this season but 3 points is 3 points, I guess.
Schizophrenic United.
can the season just END already??

Btw, if he was to be let go, it's more likely to be after the season ends (more likely to have a proper replacement instead of a repeat of Carver taking over from Pardew). Things going stale for managers in jobs isn't uncommon. #nufc #MUNNEW #PL
I'd give Eddie the January window, but we need to look abroad more. Don't want to be spending the month searching for a new manager or allowing him to sign/sell players before sacking him. If he doesn't turn things around, maybe it'll be time to let him go. #nufc #MUNNEW #PL
Eddie Howe lying through his teeth about not doing the goalkeeper is injured to pass on tactical changes.
Makes the win even sweeter considering Lammens was barely tested other than a few aerial calls.

Of course Man Utd's 1st win without Fernandes starting since he joined (I think) is against us. The fact this was the one PL game on Boxing Day and the 1st one of the weekend makes it more annoying. #nufc #MUNNEW #PL
Time for a crisp IPA, and a dip in the ocean. Hope you enjoyed today's #MUNNEW watchalong. ¡Hasta luego! Talk to you soon! ❤️ - Isabel

Big 3 pts! Any point we will get from now until the end of AFCON will be big. Clean sheet. First for months! is it a coincidence we got it defending in a formation players understand? We even reminded ourselves we actually signed a good GK!
Long may it continue.

Not sure anyone will displace Ayden Heaven from United’s XI. His progression over the last few weeks, alone, is striking. My player of match, along with Manuel Ugarte, who covered a ridiculous amount of ground. Ruben Amorim needs a decent transfer window and a bench.

👏🏼 Well held on lads. Despite being completely handicapped by Amorim’s utterly baffling second half substitutions. Cannot work Amorim out. Stubborn. Yes. But those second half changes looked simply incompetent. Just made it so much harder for ourselves. #mufc #munnew
Goalkeeper might be a problem position for #MUFC still, but Lammens wasn't really tested. That's the biggest takeaway from a #NUFC perspective, surely. So wasteful in the final third #MUNNEW #PremierLeague
Newcastle couldn’t hit the target if they were paid millions of dollars to do so. #MUNNEW
