It doesn't look as bad if players stay on their feet.
AjcW Posted 22 November 2020 Posted 22 November 2020 The 'Pathetic from Alioski' line is a bit redundant, he'd have been sent off even if he'd stayed on his feet 1

The Harry Kane love in particularly grinds my gears He could do nothing other than take a massive dump in the centre circle all game and some would still award him man of the match and be waxing lyrical about his positioning and perfectly weighted stools The Kane thing really annoys me because yes he's a great striker, but he does miss quite a lot of chances. He shoots a lot, and scores a lots, but misses a lot too. Then when he does miss they talk about how unlike it is of Kane to do so. No its not, it very much like Kane to miss chances. And the way Tyler screams his name if he's anywhere within 40 yards of the goal, like he's bound to do something amazing. Its not a given he's gonna smash one in from anywhere, he'll do it every now and then. 1
StanSP Posted 22 November 2020 Posted 22 November 2020 Regardless of Alioski's action it's a red card. No one should be excusing what Pepe did just because Alioski went down easily. You just don't headbutt anyone in football. Every single player knows it. Every fan and coach knows it. However Alioski acted is a moot point because any ref seeing it means it's a straight red.

Should that be a red card? He's not put any power into the headbutt.

Neville basically said he wouldn’t criticise Leeds yet they’ve conceded 8 goals in their last 2 games. Had they got promoted with say someone like pulis they’d be having a right go at them.
Vacamion Posted 22 November 2020 Posted 22 November 2020 If you genuinely nutted someone on the pitch, spreading their nose in a bloody mess, they would set the law on you, Duncan Ferguson style. What happened there wasn't a head butt. It was a light brushing and it shouldn't be called a head butt, as it just ain't the same thing. 3
whoareyaaa Posted 22 November 2020 Posted 22 November 2020 Arsenal have a good keeper, probably there best player

I don't think that should be the metric used in a game of football.

filbertway Posted 22 November 2020 Posted 22 November 2020 it's just not a headbutt. It's a red by today's standards but its not a headbutt. In my dream world Alioski gets booked for diving and the two are told to get on with it.
SouthStandUpperTier Posted 22 November 2020 Posted 22 November 2020 Keep thinking Tyler has developed Tourrettes when he says "Cock!", then I remember that he's referring to Koch the player. 2

Guest SO1 Posted 22 November 2020 Posted 22 November 2020 Think this is going to be a very physical match. Expect some shxthouing from Klopp as they will be looking to intimidate us. If we match up to them mentally and physically that's all I can really ask for. Let the chips fall where they may. Just want to see us fight from the start.
filbertway Posted 22 November 2020 Posted 22 November 2020 Just now, StanSP said: Is it a dive though? Yes. If anybody can convince me that the reaction was proportional to the contact made then fair play.

Trumpet Posted 22 November 2020 Posted 22 November 2020 Tyler is so difficult to listen to. It’s like he has to pause after every other word to try and think of something really clever to say. The older he gets, the longer the pause it seems. 1

I dont like it and I dont like that Alioski is allowed to fake a reaction to make it look much worse than it was.

Slightly yes so you're probably right, but I would say it's inevitable to have forward movement as Pepe is moving towards Alioski. You or me would be embarrassed go to go down after that, why is it accepted that footballers can do that? I don't deny a Leicester player would be do the same thing by thee way. It's probably a more wider point, and why I am increasingly going off aspects of football in general. Stupid from Pepe though admittedly, not like he was reacting to a dangerous tackle or anything.
