I understand why you'd say that since you think it's a foul when a opposition players breath!

Remember when Sterling played for us and was called offside there despite being 20 yards onside?
 
I'll be honest I think that's exactly the type of game Henderson would've thrived in. Dunno if anyone would agree with that or if its been said already but that's how I feel.
Agreed. It is this type of games that he plays well. When teams sit deep Fabinho is your man. When the game is tight Hendo is better

No problem, I'll moan enough for the both of us.

If your [HASHTAG]#ambition[/HASHTAG] is top 4 then a draw away against a rival is okay as it maintains any points gap.

If your [HASHTAG]#ambition[/HASHTAG] is to challenge for the title then referees saying they'll only acknowledge 50% of the legitimate goals you score is a killing blow.

pessimist ;)
 
But it's not your professional job paid a salary of hundreds of thousands of pounds to get offside decisions correct

I would still post my graphs and they would represent [HASHTAG]#reality[/HASHTAG] not the PGMOL version of it

I do find it funny you think they are your graphs. :)
 
With Mito on the whole lack of press we are displaying. Arsenal over played it a number of times today and were slow or made the wrong choice coming out. The Liverpool of last season would have capitalised on that.

we put zero and I mean zero into pressing their back line and two average enough cms.

the press is dead.

until someone of the cms joins and firmino does it we are toast there.
 
Still think we massively miss Chamberlain. He presses, drives forward with the ball and can actually take corners

Arsenal are us of two years ago; very hard working with a high press and a nightmare to play against.

With an awful back line.

Our midfield has blown us up but our back 5 has been such an improvement we are just hanging in for the odd chance and winning games as a result.

We are not on top of teams forcing chances and just scaring sides. It's just not happening.
 
pessimist ;)

All about the CL now

It's a statistical fact that we perform much better in Europe then the PL, whereas Man Utd and Man City perform far, far worse in Europe than the PL

The reason is PGMOL and their lack of influence in Europe

It's a statistical fact that PGMOL is [HASHTAG]#bentasfuck[/HASHTAG]

They weren't even trusted for the World Cup either

I think it's worse then that - they won't admit it, but that lino doesn't know the rules. There's basically four situations from which you cannot be offside from that supersede everything regarding passages of play:

1) Goal kick

2) Corner kick

3) Throw in

4) If you are level or behind the ball.

I've now seen Prem linos (and refs) give offsides for all four of them. They won't admit it - they'll come up with some crap about interfering with play in the first passage (didn't, because the goal would have stood had Bobby's clip gone in), and he wasn't unsighted or any such think. He simply didn't know the rules, and that's that. Another ****ing beachball situation. Incredible incompetence.

No you can't. You see, I accept that from you, as a fan, but not from an official who is paid and regulated.

If we've got a goal kick and Bobby stands in their penalty area whilst the opposition stand on the halfway line, the keeper boring it to Bobby is 100% offside.

I actually accept lino's ****ing these calls up more than other decisions because there is such a big distance between the ball and the players.
