Match Day Thread Vs Southampton (A)

I knew you were going to say that....

 

Still never lost a PL game, and now he's scoring

I suppose @Tobes and @BobbyD would still prefer Fred or Jorginho

Although equally pleased, it was slightly disappointing not to see the Saints go into meltdown because once of VVD, Lovren or Lallana (and to a lesser extent, Mane) didn't score

 

That sort of went well......

 

He isn't being asked to adjust to a mid-table PL side, or even a top 4 PL side, but a record-setting PL side

Pogba's still doing that in his 4th season playing in the PL

 

Me too. Called him a typically selfish ****er right until the ball hit the corner of the net. Now I'm again thinking of converting to Islam.

What's the consensus on the Keita pen shout? I thought it was ****ing blatant.

 

I thought it was a penalty but I wouldn't say blatant

 

No pen

 

Need one of the yids or scum to do the biz. All we can do is keep winning. Keep the faith.

 

For me it was a pen but only from one camera angle was it clear. If I’d been the ref it would have been a no pen too. VAR gives it imo

 

VAR also rules out Keita's goal as Salah was offside in the build up. Although we had a offside decision later on that wasn't too.

 

any other team as there was contact they would all be saying pen, as it's us it must be a leg breaker to be considered a pen

i have seen a lot less given as pens, so no idea what one should be now days. does it depend on who is playing, or who the ref is?

 

didn't see game as was working only saw brief bits.

someone told me that var said they would have still given it as a goal.

 

Yep

 

Looked offside to me tbh

 

The commentators said something about the goal being scored in the second phase of play and the first phase wouldn't be checked. Not sure that's true or not

 

Lost control of the ball maybe?.......that's the only reason the ref could disallow it imo
