REFEREES SWAYED: MICHAEL OWEN ACCUSES BRUNO FERNANDES OF "NAUGHTY" FREE-KICK INFLUENCE
Manchester United's equaliser came from a questionable free-kick after Adam Smith was penalised for handball. Michael Owen suggests Bruno Fernandes' overreaction swayed referee Simon Hooper's poor decision.
After Manchester United got a questionable free kick against Bournemouth, Bruno Fernandes was accused of swaying Simon Hooper's call. On Monday, Fernandes scored a cool free kick to tie the game at 3-3 after Bournemouth's captain, Adam Smith, was called for a handball.
The 4-4 game at Old Trafford was filled with action, but the free-kick call wasn't the main thing people were talking about. Still, it angered Bournemouth. Their manager, Andoni Iraola, said, I think it's a clear mistake. It hit above the armband. It's not a foul.
The ball hit Smith's arm at close range, but Hooper gave a free kick and booked Smith for arguing after Fernandes scored. Michael Owen thinks Hooper only made that decision because Fernandes influenced him.
Owen said about Fernandes' free kick on Premier League Productions, The speed, the curve, everything was great—but it shouldn't have been a free kick. The ball was a foot away from him. Even if it hits him low, it's harsh when you kick it into someone from a yard away. His arms weren't waving around, and it was too high anyway. It was a bad call.
Little things matter a lot. People don't want to see players faking falls or claiming free kicks when they shouldn't. If Bruno Fernandes doesn't overreact when the ball hits, he doesn't get the call. The ref thinks, 'I didn't see it right; I'll give it,' because of the player's reaction. It's human.
These small things make a big difference. If Bruno doesn't act like that, if he's not pushing the limits and being a bit sneaky, they don't get that free kick or score that goal. It's like he was streetwise in winning that free kick.
Smith was mad about the call. He said, We let in a bad goal right before halftime, which made us angry, and it showed. We came out for the second half and scored twice right away.
Then, no surprise, the ref makes a bad call because the ball hit my shoulder from a yard away. What am I supposed to do with my arms? I don't know. He didn't even want to talk to me, which is worse. Even the Man United players said it wasn't a handball!
As a defender, I don't know what to do anymore. It's a yard away, or even right next to me! It hit the top of my sleeve. I thought that wasn't handball anymore?
He wouldn't even talk to me. He said, 'I don't want to talk to you right now.' Then he booked me after the goal. It's really annoying.
WHY MARCUS RASHFORD IS OFFICIALLY SNUBBING MICHAEL CARRICK’S MANCHESTER UNITED SOS RETURN PLEA
Marcus Rashford has no interest in a Manchester United return. Discover why he’s choosing a permanent £26m move to Barcelona instead.
Marcus Rashford isn’t looking back at Manchester United. After his loan to Barcelona, he’s made it pretty clear he wants to stay in Spain for good.
He landed at Barca last summer, a move that made sense after things soured for him at Old Trafford. Hansi Flick brought him in on a season-long loan, with a deal in place to buy him for €30 million (£26 million). Rashford wasted no time showing his worth—22 goal contributions in 32 games. He’s settled in fast, and the fans have noticed.
Earlier on, it sounded like Barcelona might try to haggle over the fee, maybe push for another loan or a cheaper deal. But now, according to Marca, that’s off the table. The club’s ready to pay what they agreed and make Rashford’s move permanent. Rashford wants it too. Everyone seems to be on the same page.
The Mirror reports Rashford has zero interest in heading back to Manchester. He wants his future sorted before England sets off for the 2026 World Cup in North America. No surprise there—he’s not looking to drag things out.
England’s first match is June 17 against Croatia, just two weeks after Barcelona’s season wraps up. Some talk suggested Michael Carrick, if he gets the United job permanently, could try to lure Rashford back. But honestly, Rashford’s mind is made up. He wants Spain, and that’s that.
Even if the Barcelona deal somehow falls through, Rashford would rather move elsewhere than wear United’s shirt again. If everything goes as planned, his transfer will be United’s first big move this summer.
He’s not the only one heading out. Casemiro’s already confirmed he’s leaving, and a few others might follow. United have juggled rumours about guys like Manuel Ugarte, Joshua Zirkzee, and Kobbie Mainoo, especially back in January. After Ruben Amorim left, Mainoo actually found himself in a stronger spot at United and has started every match since Carrick came back. Lately, there’s been a real push to get him into the England squad.
Meanwhile, United are fighting for a Champions League spot. If they make the top five, they’ll have more cash to play with this summer. Last year, they spent over £200 million beefing up the squad, even without European football.
If Rashford, Ugarte, and Zirkzee all leave, United will have even more flexibility to reshape the team. Top priorities? A central midfielder, a centre-forward, and a left winger before the 2026/27 season kicks off. This summer’s shaping up to be busy at Old Trafford.
COLE PALMER "OPEN" TO MANCHESTER UNITED SWITCH AMID HOMESICK RUMORS
Cole Palmer is reportedly open to a summer move to boyhood club Manchester United as claims of homesickness emerge at Chelsea.
Cole Palmer just can’t seem to escape transfer talk. Now, it’s Manchester United in the headlines, with rumours swirling that he’s homesick after spending two and a half years at Chelsea.
Apparently, Palmer wouldn’t mind a big summer move to United—his boyhood club—especially with fresh claims that he’s not exactly settled in London. He joined Chelsea from Manchester City in a £42.5 million deal and quickly became one of their main attacking threats. But now, the England international’s name keeps popping up in connection to a return up north.
The Sun says Palmer would be open if United came calling, since he grew up supporting them. But don’t expect him to head back to City while Pep Guardiola’s still the boss. That door’s basically closed.
It’s worth noting that Jason Wilcox, United’s director of football, knows Palmer well from his time at City’s academy. Wilcox is a big fan—hard not to be, after Palmer racked up 15 goals and eight assists in the Premier League last season.
Despite signing a new deal with Chelsea last year that runs until 2033, Palmer reportedly misses his hometown of Wythenshawe.
Injuries have made this season tough for him. He’s only managed 13 appearances in the 2025-26 campaign, and he missed Chelsea’s 3-1 win over Crystal Palace on Sunday because of a thigh problem. Liam Rosenior, Chelsea’s new head coach, confirmed that before the match.
Rosenior’s already tried to put a lid on the transfer rumours, especially the talk about Palmer being homesick. “I’ve spoken to Cole plenty of times, and he seems really happy here,” Rosenior said last week. “He’s a huge part of our long-term plans.
“My job—and the club’s—is to help him consistently play at his best. He was frustrated after the Brentford game, for sure. We need to take care of him, and that’s why I kept him out of the last match.”
