The Footie Thread

Well it’s good to give something for the Mancs to cheer for

Imagine having your own team being that bad you need to will on a rival

We need something right now, anything will do!

 

[HampshireHog]

That’s a ridiculously long time for offside


And now they had added Dean in with Neville - just gets worse

To be fair they both called way before VAR

 

[clubchamp98]

I wonder if there will be any time wasting

Oh you could see that he was onside with the naked eye - VVD foot was there clear , no idea why it took so long

 

[Arthur Wedge]

Got to make use of this pressure now especially with Gabriel going off


Arsenal GK time wasting has started

See Taylor inconsistent as ever with the shirt pulls

How is that a foul

 

[AmandaJR]

They're pretty darned skilled in that area...

 

[Arthur Wedge]

Do players not have to go off anymore when they go down injured

 

[Skytot]

All the Arsenal dark art tricks are coming out now

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Do players not have to go off anymore when they go down injured

Only if the trainer comes on. It's why you often see teammates telling them to get up shortly after the play has been stopped. They don't want the trainer on unless absolutely necessary.

 

[Arthur Wedge]

That’s a nice goal

164 Prem goals for a wide forward

Not bad for a one season wonder

 

[Skytot]

They will win this now Lpool

ETH is a dead man walking, absolutely no way he survives this, the only surprising thing is why INEOS are letting this entire thing meander towards its inevitable conclusion. That said today’s result was entirely down to the players and incompetent officiating. If the United players had any ability whatsoever they’d have been 4/5 up at half time, that’s not on ETH. The VAR check at the end was ridiculous, as already mentioned, meant to be ‘clear and obvious’ if it’s to overturn an onfield decision and there’s no way that incident was either of those things.

Can today really be on his head? His players really let him down , first half they should have been about 4-0 up and second half the decision was a terrible one (even tho I'm delighted with the points)

For once I'd say it wasn't his fault

 

[Arthur Wedge]

ref blew the whistle ages before

 

[Swango1980]

Arsenal will be gutted by that. I thought that was a well won header

 

[Arthur Wedge]

Well it’s prob a good point for both at the end of the day

 

[PJ87]

@Fade and Die have you recovered from the shock of a win? Stadium sounded happy on the telly

Think Summerville and soucek really were key. That and todibo is class

Must say soucek under j-lo is class

 

[clubchamp98]

Right result.
Bit of a dull game after a great start.
Slot has got to get the players to stop giving the ball away to cheaply.

What an equaliser though fantastic.

It wasn’t a great of much high quality tbh beyond the moments for the opening goal and the final one

We’re talking A Taylor.
Not much wrong imo.
But can you follow through to aggressively with a header. only reason I can think of as the Liverpool player didn’t jump.?
