Match Day Thread Premier League, Cups & Euro Watch

Love how keepers can come out, punch a player, jump up and knee them, put two hands on them and push them over off the ball... nothing given. Yet if you jump within 5 yards of one it’s an automatic foul

 

Did you hear Alan smiths justification
Hilarious

 

depends which side of the pitch you see it from .

 

It was no lazar Markovich but very very minimal and doesn’t look anything other than trying to get leverage
Very soft imho
It was torrerias over reaction which sold it
Let’s hear the shouting tomorrow

 

from one side of the pitch it looks like nowt but from the side the llinesman was it looked much worse. More to the point was why was he chucking his arm at Torreiras (sp) face anyway as Deeney himself clearly indicated he had hit him but "just the forearm guv".

 

To be fair. He is a short ass and his face inly comes to a normal sized persons elbow

 

If that was Lukaku on Robbo I am not shouting red
It did look worse from where Lino was but as I said that was cause of the over simulation
Which he has now done on three other occasions

Edit
Forgot to say if you are a goalie though it is fine to just shove a player over lmao

 

Lehman (appropriately another Arse goalie) was the best for that . I remember him literally grabbing a forward in a bear hug and throwing the player "away" and the ref just warned him and had the corner retaken .

 

Don't think Carra really gets modern football (most about the GK's), think he prefers the old fashioned approach of smashing the ball into row Z.

 

Time for Game Of Thrones!!!

 

this is the thing about most pundits they are stuck in the period they played and still refer to the rules which they played under rather than the current interpretations.

 

most are not known for deep thinking.

 

very true in fact many are not known for thinking .

 

Nah, there was contact in this and it wasn’t a dive in the box.

 

Jamie Redknapp

 

wrong













he is clearly thinking "these mugs pay me to spout this ****e"

 

Not what Durham was banging on about
Look at his other simulations

Oh and there was contact yesterday not enough imho for a pen but even keown pointed out the contact

People forget that only on Wednesday that salah stayed on his feet when he should have gone down and lost his chance to score

He has done that as many times as he has dived but no one brings that up in these discussions

I am certain it will be something that is decided around the positioning but the fact is he does not dive anywhere near the amount of others

And I can’t stick diving - we all have them - yours is CL

 

Salah did dive, Carragher called it as no contact, but never a dive......

Did Souness mention it?

 

Arsenal are going to bottle this
