Oh dear. Football is a confidence game. Both Che and Danny are lacking it. It will come back. I think Theo needs a rest
He wasn’t saying he’d ‘bring in ten replacements’ - he was just saying wouldn’t it be lovely to have lots of money. It was a flippant remark (that gets twisted, but let’s not be the ones to do that).
I havent heard it no. Just seen the written words. Turned it off in a huff when Ings goal was disallowed.
Hate to bang this drum again... but the technology isn't that accurate to say with certainty when it's that close. There's multiple frames you can stop on of someone playing the ball.
Let's forget about the VAR decisions for a moment. More worryingly Ralph has openly said that we are skint. That is a huge ******* problem going forward. It also shows what a great job Ralph is doing. We are so lucky to have him.
Indeed. I think it was merely frustration about the injuries that are piling up - he would like to buy 10 if he could to make up the numbers
Surely we all knew that already? I mean nobody is expecting anything more than a loan this month. Not really news, is it?
I'd be inclined to agree if we look at his time with us, but we can't pretend injuries don't change players. Obviously I am playing devils advocate here - but considering how desperate we want him to stay, and the (apparent) deal we have offered, I think he needs to get back to his best asap if he wants to be the highest earner in our history or even earn that top 4 move.
A neutral watching that would say that we were the better team for most of it and the match stats back that up. Their keeper had a good match and they defended well and we never got the rub of the green from the vital decisions. The injuries will ease with Big Vester on the horizon but I am concerned about the lack of cover for the full backs.
Given that I'm such a VAR supporter (but not a Lee Mason supporter!), this evening hasn't been easy for me. I was talking on here the other day about the wording of the offside law potentially justifying the Man City non-offside. But I just don't see where in the wording of the handball law it justifies our non-penalty. The bit about it deflecting off your body doesn't apply to deliberate handball. If it did, everytime the ball hits a defender's knee, they'd just grab the ball!
