Re-watched the big moments (especially Valencia not getting a second yellow and then pretending to be injured, Pogba's push on Dembele and Pogba's non-booking for a deliberate trip to stop us running into the box) on iPlayer to see if the commentators were saying about it.
Of course they said nothing.
The Valencia non-sending off exemplifies just how much of the decisions United get. Every match it happens and the media never say anything about. The missus supports United so I usually end up watching a lot of United games on TV and it happens against everyone else as well. What makes it worse is that the referees seem to like shafting us. The Foster time-wasting for 70 odd minutes before getting booked comes to mind.
I don't know what's more infuriating - the fact referees fawn over United or the fact the media are completely blind to it. Murphy and commentators are muppets at the best of times but how they can't see what's obvious to us. The fact no one will call it out means it will keep going on. Graham Roberts came out and called the referee for what he was on twitter and ending us getting abuse from our own fans. How often get delisted for poor decisions? Almost never happens.
I would have loved Poch to just come out say it "Referees are either scared of United or continually favour them. Fine me, I don't care. Someone needs to say it". I'm sure Levy would pay it.
