Graeme Souness was on Sky Sports today covering today’s proceedings and wasn’t convinced with Man United’s captain Harry Maguire ‘dive’ inside the box “He goes to ground as if he has been hit with a baseball bat.”

The Scot went on to say;
“He said he thinks it’s a penalty, it’s not enough to bring him down the way he goes down.”
“He throws himself to the ground. It’s not a penalty…”
“This is such a bad result for Manchester United. Maguire has just said it’s a difficult place to come, West Brom have won one game at home against the bottom team, that’s a difficult place to go if you’re second or third in the league?”
“West Brom had the better chances. That is an exceptionally poor performance and result for Manchester United, when you think they’ve got a chance of putting the pressure on Manchester City. Nah.”
