Probably the best way of doing it esp as the “player leaving the pitch at the nearest point” seems to have been shelved.

It makes perfect sense as well.
Effective playing time allowance for time lost / calculation of additional time
This season a more accurate calculation of additional time will come into effect

Fulham celebrated their goal for 3 minutes

The Fulham keeper wasted a lot of time, including straightening his socks before kicking it, so an extra 30 secs or so seemed fair overall.

Yep and moving the ball to the other side for a goal kick taking all the time in the world

But if there were 5 minutes of injury time from a 90 minute game, does it not then make logical sense that you may have roughly 20 seconds injury time from that 5 minutes? And as others have said its a 'minimum of 5 minutes' injury time, so could be anywhere up to 5 minutes 59 seconds. Plus, for those 20 seconds we had the ball around the box, so an official is unlikely to stop the game during an attack. The sentiment from the thread is correct, but not relevant to this incident.

Plus there is the point that the referee may have intended to give anywhere between 5:01-5:59 precisely, so his only option is to indicate “a minimum of 5 additional minutes”. Six minutes would be more than he ever intended, and five too few.

The final whistle should always be blown when. The ball is in mid air from a hoofed goal kick.
This is how I remember every game ending, from my youth.
The rule should be changed so that once the Injury time is up, both teams play on until the ball has been hoofed over half-way line from a goal kick.

I can't understand how anybody can't grasp the concept of it being a minimum, not a set period. If you didn't add time on for all the dicking about that happened IN added time, then a winning side might as well just take the piss entirely and suck up a few yellow cards.
Why should we or anybody else lose out because Emi Martinez develops a sudden back spasm just as he's about to take a goal kick when one nil up in the third minute of time added on (for all his other time wasting)?

Bizarre take given that refs always allow an attack in progress for a few seconds after. What was strange was he gave them another attack. Surely the penalty should have been the last kick?

Their failure to stay humble, unravelled at 4:55pm.
Fulham scored in the first half.
This had no effect on second half added time.

Was going to point that out. And I am sure we were already well beyond 'Fergie Time' when the handball occurred as well.
I know. I was referring to the time wasting to shorten the first half. It worked, just 2 minutes added on, despite the 3 minutes of celebrating and assorted other Leno cheating.
Don't be ridiculous. The foul was 14 seconds after 5 minutes had been played. It's a minimum of 5 minutes, even if there's no time lost during that 5 minutes. We were on the attack with the ball in their box. It would have been odd for the ref to blow the whistle.
Fair enough.
I'd be feeling very sorry for myself, but I'd honestly not think there was a problem after just 14 seconds. We've seen so much more than that, well over a minute sometimes. Stopping at attack that close to the time would be very unusual.
There were 9 substitutions in the second half, across 6 different times. That alone is 3 minutes. (edit - ignore this bit - Then the VAR for Van Hecke's goal - which was surprisingly long), plus 2 shorter VAR's for our two disallowed goals. Then you've got the standard time wasting.
