Just admit they could have scored about 7 and you've got away with one. It would be very scary as a Man U fan to hear comments like that. Have standards dropped so low a key player like Bruno is trying to justify that performance ? United players of old would’ve been livid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wymsey Posted 27 September 2020 Share Posted 27 September 2020 (edited) 11 hours ago, Izzy said: Not a big fan of Hodgson but he's got a point.. Roy Hodgson says the "nonsense" handball law that led to a penalty against Joel Ward in Crystal Palace's 2-1 defeat by Everton is "ruining the game". "It's completely unacceptable. It's destroying my enjoyment of the game of football," said Hodgson. "I can't understand how everyone in the game - the Premier League, referees, managers and coaches - have allowed this rule to come into operation. "I don't want to profit from it or lose from it." Hodgson also believes the decision to penalise Ward sets a dangerous precedent for the future of the game. "I predict what will happen is players will start flicking the ball onto a hand and screaming 'handball'," added the 73-year-old. "I do not believe in the rule. People in football find it hard to accept. The referee doesn't think it is handball either. He doesn't want to give it but has to, because that's what he is told to do." https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/54311532 Agree, he's got a very valid point. But reckon the aspect he mentioned in bold will get him in trouble, though.. Edited 27 September 2020 by Wymsey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raw Dykes Posted 27 September 2020 Share Posted 27 September 2020 I think the Brighton Man Utd result is one of the most unjust I've ever seen. Won't be surprised to see Man Utd struggle this season. They're still trying to blow ~£100m on Sancho when they should be focussed on their shoddy defence. I wouldn't want any of their defenders or DMs at Leicester. Never thought I'd ever see the day. We let them get away with it last year, but their luck will run out at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kopfkino Posted 27 September 2020 Share Posted 27 September 2020 I reckon if Vardy had said such a thing about Tottenham then this place would be creaming itself. It's just that this places irrational obsession with everything Tottenham do has turned into an obsession with Man Utd. Besides, in the days of the sterile media-trained footballer, it's good to see someone not trot out the same bollocks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was no need to start fiddling with the laws. Absolutely agree. These rule changes were brought in to clarify the accidental handball situations but have served only to successively muddy it until it has become totally non-sensible.

He (i.e. the fans) have had no say in the Mendes affairs, surely. Think you're in the minority here mate. Also, just to be clear then are you suggesting then that it's OK to say we when it's not decision making situations, eg we were brilliant today, because again as fan, we've actually played no part in the performance, so what's the difference??

Same thing happened to us against Bournemouth last season. Jota scored a perfectly good goal, but the lino flagged and the ref blew his whistle for some reason. So it wasn't possible for it still to be allowed. Even though he blew as the ball hit the back of the net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure that they are actually playing as good as people are making out. They were quite fortunate against palace and struggled to defend against WBA, I think they are getting ahead of themselves a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get less and less shocked. I know they're only human, but the amount of time to prep and the notes they can make or be given really doesn't excuse it for me. Modern commentators seem significantly worse than some of the older ones. Edited 27 September 2020 by UniFox21 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
