They just seem happy to plod along. Aging squad and a bunch of overpaid players that they cant get rid of. Exactly, Zaha on £130k a week, openly says he wants to leave to go to a club and win things and play CL and isn't anywhere on the stats tables for assists and goals, and some of our fans think he'd be a good signing 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palace you'd think must be in trouble next season - lack of goals does for them quite often. As for Zaha - I think his attitude and consistent moaning will prevent him getting a big move. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But to the honest, it was 8 or 9 matches ago? Different if it was the last minute of the last match. It definitely would have changed the mentality of Villa approaching some games and maybe even Bournemouth who could have crumbled under the pressure being on them rather than Villa. Also think Villa probably would have beaten West Ham if they knew they had to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bear Posted 28 July 2020 Share Posted 28 July 2020 "Bournemouth's board will meet later this week to discuss the possibility of pursuing a compensation claim against Hawk-Eye, whose mistake may have contributed to their relegation from the Premier League." They do at least say "contributed to" not responsible for. You can argue that the scoreline might not have stayed at 1-0, but equally you can't say it wouldn't have.

Aus Fox Posted 28 July 2020 Author Share Posted 28 July 2020 I just saw this stat and couldn’t help think it’s everything I hate about modern football. Would love to see a comparison with 20 years ago, or even 10. Not one forward thinking player on the list. Just pass it around the backline.

peach0000 Posted 28 July 2020 Share Posted 28 July 2020 I don't think you can say that hawk eye cause their relegation. Theres no telling what would of happened if villa lost that game. It could have been the kick they needed to start their run of good form earlier. It's all speculation. I do see why bournemouth would try legal action though, they will lose a lot of money by being in the championship so they are doing the sensible thing trying to raise funds. Also if they can take legal action against hawk eye could they not also against PGMOL, VAR also missed the incident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuna Posted 28 July 2020 Share Posted 28 July 2020 No expert on such matters but I don't see how any legal action by Bournemouth will get anywhere, they're welcome to try of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Flair Posted 28 July 2020 Share Posted 28 July 2020 I hope they hand us 50% of any compensation for gifting them 3 points the other week and giving them a modicum of a chance of survival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True. Although Barnes/Grealish are just as inexperienced at this level and done more. It's hard to judge stats. You can pick a player out and put him in a better side and he'd get a load more assists. And like on the flip side would KDB have that many assists playing behind Benteke?

UniFox21 Posted 28 July 2020 Share Posted 28 July 2020 £80million is a huge tag, guess they're as reluctant to lose Grealish as we are key players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaspa Posted 28 July 2020 Share Posted 28 July 2020 I'm kind of agreeing with Bournemouth, granted they were shight over the course of their whole season, they should've put better performances in and they deserve to go down but a 3rd party has directly affected the result of a Premier League match, mistake or not which has gifted their relegation rivals a point. You can't let Hawkeye off and as always the refs should be more accountable too, VAR should've flagged it up and just called it common sense. There should be an inquiry into Hawkeye in the least.

I do think palaces home support is key for them Its interesting without it how much they struggled, I felt it affected watford as well in the run. I sense trouble for palace without serious additions, its a aging plodding midfield, with a lack of goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although if I recall the ref confirmed he'd received the signal for the goal at half time. Still don't understand why he didn't address the issue at the time if that was the case. There was some long winded explanation of why VAR didn't or couldn't intervene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
