What the **** is Walton warbling on about? Robertson takes a big swing, completely misses the ball and hits Welbeck. Why isn't that a foul? It's like they're talking about something else entirely. "In the past, we'd have just carried on." Yeah, that's what VAR is supposed to correct, FFS.
Nah, that’s a straw man, you can’t argue with that call imo. He’s gone to clear the ball, missed it completely and caught Welbecks foot, it’s a clear foul. I don’t get the crying about it one iota. You see one similar virtually every game, usually as a striker goes to block a clearance from a defender and gets caught on the follow through. Foul given.
I long for the days when in the Mane goal situation I celebrate wildly only to be denied seconds later by a linesman's flag. It was football and you lived with the decisions.
The way I see clear and obvious is by asking if it's one of those where there'd be days of talk about it afterwards in pre-var times. Didn't think it was one of those personally. Each to their own.
The way I see it is if that was Luke Shaw kicking Welbz and it wasn’t given, the world is raging cos it’s another big decision gone United’s way. Tough **** the ****ing Scousers have to suck one up. Pack of ****s.
I switched over from watching the racing, saw Mane’s goal, and thought “that’s all over then”. Thought there must be something wrong with the BBC website when I checked the final score just now. I have absolutely no idea what happened in between, but I have to say it’s all fine with me
Doherty got done for handballing it against Saints, yeah. Luckily it was 5-1 at the time, so it didn't really matter.
