Can they still review bad tackles, increase to a red card etc even though VAR reviewed it? I can't understand how that was not upgraded to a red, it was obvious and nasty.
Shows how poor the reffing standard and VAR is imo.
They must be the only two people in the country who think it’s not a red.( inc UTD fans)
No excuse the ref was right in position with a clear view.
VAR well what can u say.
But his punishment was the same as a goalscorer taking his shirt off.
The reffing standards need addressing.
 
Fernandes is by far the worst for writhing around on the floor pretending to be injured.
Agree ,he’s starting to be a pain in the ass.
No doubt a quality player ,but needs to go back and start playing football again.
Another inept performance from a team with very little pride in there own performances let alone as a team.

Am positive he can take rolling to another level ?
On another note I got a lift home last night by Gabriel from Tunisia who drove the taxi. He gave me a lecture about oil money helping to win everything. I agreed, however he didn’t like it when I pointed out that his team “ Utd” have spent more and are rammel. Apparently he is confident they will be back next year as they have a brilliant manager coming.
 
Just hoping to avoid a smashing this afternoon

All CBs bar Dawson injured

Semi of Europa Wednesday

Would take a bore draw now
 
Good to see Moyes prioritising Thursdays game

West Ham XI: Fabianski, Coufal, Johnson, Dawson, Cresswell, Masuaku, Noble, Soucek, Fornals, Benrahma, Yarmolenko.

If only he had done so the games we lost diop and zouma tbh

Defence is first choice due to injuries

Nice to see rice Bowen and Antonio finally given a rest
 
I don’t think Fernandinho was dirty in a sense of hurting players, he was consistent in stopping play. He was that cute he could do it three or four times before ref’s found there yellow cards. It was that what rankled fans that he was not yellow carded sooner. The challenges Fernades has put in, if they were on him we could see a new record for a decibel scream and continuous rolls.

Oh yeah, don't get me wrong... He's not the malicious type, but in terms of volume of cheeky fouls he'd get away with before the yellow was finally branded was impressive.
 
yeah its a red for me, no attempt to play the ball and lukaku about to shoot when he pulls him

Am I correct in remembering it's just 1 match miss now for a straight red for a foul like that?

Means arsenal game which is slap between the semis and we will prob end up with youth team out anyways
 
Despite Everton's woes I actually look at the fixtures left and have a big concern for Leeds.

Wouldn't surprise me if Leeds went down on goal difference on the last day of the season.
