    I think if the game had VAR we would have gone in level. Got a feeling they will go down to 10 men second half

    I get their point. I don’t agree with it. But center backs really don’t want to be making wild swings like that in the box and completely missing the ball.

    Hopefully O’Nien learns from that

    It wasn't a rash challenge at all, he didn't tackle him.

    He missed the ball and the player who was already going over. Joke of a decision

    we happy with our Center backs swinging and missing the ball in the box when challenging their players?

    I mean yeh he missed their player as well, which is why I think it’s a terrible decision to award the penalty.

    but that doesn’t make O’Niens tackle any less rash and silly.

    “Key moments of the game they’ve done well” is all I heard at half time. Pretty sure he was talking about West Brom too. Saving iPad battery. What was said before that

    yep but doesn’t make his decision to do that any better does it.

    he’s actually lucky he missed the player otherwise it would have been a pen.

    It wasn’t a pen but it doesn’t mean his tackle was a good one

    Ball was gone too. Rash from O9, but doesn't make it a foul

    Irrelevant when the striker has literally hit the deck through no contact, slipping them rolling over like a sniper has hit him with a .50cal

    Someone should freeze the play when O'Nien "makes contact" and see that Swift is on his ****ing arse already. It's not a penalty and the West Brom player is a cheat. Simple as that.

    "Bought a penalty" FFS. I wonder if pundits in the modern day would say that Maradona "bought a goal with his quick thinking".

    Players regularly Mis kick. Not rash to mis kick when you’re literally nowhere near the opponent.
