Who is Senenyo? Is he a decent player?

Feel free to ask the question when I spell his name wrong consistently many times if you wanna to score a few funny points.

Spelling it wrong once, might just indicate I have a fat thumb and I don't proof read every post

P.S. I think I finally saw that Haarland play yesterday. He is a poor imitation of the real Haaland

It was a bit of quick skill that shifted a bouncing ball that caused dalot to catch him with the studs. Dalot has flicked out a leg to try and make contact with the ball. Dalots leg extends fully at the end of the flick which raises the studs. Its a natural motion at the end of a kick. You see it all the time at the end of a kick.
Its a sore one. I honestly dont think its anywhere near as bad as some are making out and I love to see united men taking an early bath.

Not sure but Dalot’s tackle was on Doku

And imo it should be a red card,

The video is very clear , it’s not a glancing blow - it’s studs straight on the knee

More than anything it shows how inconsistent it all is

 

[Tashyboy]

No, there was minimal force at the point of contact.
A poorly timed tackle, nothing sinister at all.

Don’t have to be sinister to be a red. Doku was a lucky boy coming out of that.

That said I initially thought Dalot had made a good tackle, the slo mo which VAR see, well it looked naughty.

This. I was at the match yesterday and from where I was sat I initially thought Doku made a meal of it. Watching it on MOTD it could on another day been a red

Palace just aren't a big club and have punched above their weight over the last few years off the back of some great signings. I remember going there 15 odd years ago and the ground was half empty. It's just a natural cycle. They won the FA Cup which is really special for them so they will always have that to look back on. Still think they have a decent chance of the Europa Conference League but Glasner needs to stop throwing his toys out of the pram.

Wrong on so many levels tbh, My brother in law is a season ticket holder at Palace, been plenty over the last few years, its been rammed in there, amazing atmosphere as well. they have made great signings and a really good manager and the fans and the manager have been totally screwed over. Poor contract management of the players and manager as well as spening very little, selling your best players and so on.

But hey 15 years ago they were dead and rubbish, they need to get back in their box and shut up, especially the manager hey. If only the fame of all clubs and on here would do the same....

 

[Swango1980]

How about this: should Spurs and Palace just swap their managers?

Saw the start of the Arsenal Aston Villa ladies FA Cup game today at Borehamwood on channel 4. After 4 minutes commentator said, Arsenal defending North Bank, the end where the Arsenal ultras stand.

If the offside player didnt touch the ball, no idea how that goal was disallowed. It is the sort of goal that is almost always given. But the VAR has decided "your active if you are only the pitch" philosophy

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Great header from O'Brien, he's had a few chalked off this season

 

[Lucifer MorningStar]

I genuinely don’t think I understand the offside rule anymore. It seems to change with every game such is the inconsistency of decision making.

It's Everton, of course it wasn't allowed

We go back to consistency don't we? Some days that's a goal, today it wasn't. If it's always not a goal, I understand. However, no question that some days this season that is a goal.

Certainly seem you never get a decision go your way in the games I’ve seen this season.

Any other game I’ve seen that’s given as a goal. The frustration is there never seems to be a definitive answer given by VAR or the match officials. Put that in a game tomorrow goal will be allowed.

If it was one of the biggest clubs, that would have been hugely controversial. But because it happened in this match, I won't be surprised if it gets brushed over.

Goals are flowing today


Not sure who they flagged as offside in the disallowed goal

Armstrong. The ball just went over his head, it didn't touch him. Argument is he is taking the attention of a defender. I look forward to that being repeated for future decisions.

I would say beyond the half time chat that will barely ever get a mention again as it’s Everton. Were that your Red neighbours there’d be at least of a weeks debate across the footballing world.

Just watched it and he was the one who jumped in front of the player had the header ? He has attempted to play the ball which I guess is why they flagged it
