Popular Post Finnegan Posted 29 November 2020 Popular Post Share Posted 29 November 2020 Not really sure why people are trying to flex some sort of moral superiority at @The Bear tbh. If our best player got absolutely flattened by that sort or challenge this place would be going ****ing ballistic. I don't doubt there's one or two more level headed folk that would accept it was an accident and just a footballing incident but there'd also be those implying Luiz is a violent thug who should be banned for life and arrested for GBH. Why are we trying to shame someone for being emotional in the heat of the moment when something has happened to his team. Isn't that emotion supposed to be exactly why we romanticise football? If you're the sort of robot that could see something that severe happen to your team and be totally, completely rational about it then I dare say you're in the minority. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UniFox21 Posted 29 November 2020 Share Posted 29 November 2020 I'd be disappointed if Luiz is allowed to play the second half. Bleeding through his head still, risking the welfare of other players with that. That's ignoring the huge clash of heads that will no doubt have caused him issues. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He deliberately ended Alf Inge Hålands career with a horror tackle and spat on him. The utter fvckin hypocrite. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not being 'emotional' Finners, that's an excuse for anger. I'm no robot either. So please, spare me that dehumanising epithet, and perhaps read what I last said to The Bear.

Facecloth Posted 29 November 2020 Share Posted 29 November 2020 8 minutes ago, Freeman's Wharfer said: People can go in with malice with their feet and know they could do damage to another player and be relatively ok themselves. Not sure the same can be said of people leading with their own head. It’s an accidental collision (as happens in contact sport), he’s got his own head bleeding and bandaged up, I don’t think he can be lambasted or banned for some malicious intent. Best wishes for Jimenez but Luiz doesn’t deserve any punishment or hate for that. Exactly. All this talk about how dangerous it was for Jiminez, then surely Luiz was in the same danger. I mean you could argue Jiminez knows players will be running in attacking the ball, and he's not been aware and put himself in danger. I mean he's backing towards the ball, no chance of getting it, no idea who's behind him. But of course that's a ridiculous angle to take as all it is is two players making a honest attempt to head the ball and unfortunately meeting in the same point at the same time. We see it ever week and its fine, we see it end it a bullet header into the net and we praise the goal and the bravery, suddenly when it results in this once in a blue moon its dangerous and reckless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopfkino Posted 29 November 2020 Share Posted 29 November 2020 Applying this nonsense about endangering an opponent, Luiz should have got a red no doubt. If you go in high and late with your studs you’re off so I have sympathy for the view that he was never getting there and so it was very reckless of Luiz to go in like that. But it’s one of them that’s just a really unfortunate accident and very bad luck. Wouldn’t be gunning for Luiz because could happen to anyone at anytime, it’s one of them things 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post UniFox21 Posted 29 November 2020 Popular Post Share Posted 29 November 2020 Looks like Holding is coming on for Luiz there. 50 minutes too late. If he wasn't fit to come out for the second half, he wasn't fit to play the rest of the first. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bear Posted 29 November 2020 Share Posted 29 November 2020 (edited) You look at this and remember that Luiz is running in full pelt and Jimenez is completely unaware and jumping up still/backwards.

RowlattsFox Posted 29 November 2020 Share Posted 29 November 2020 If this happened at the centre circle, with Luiz running from a distance and clattering into Jimenez, people might see it differently. I don't think it should be a red, but I do think it could be classed as reckless. Was a free kick given? I've only seen the incident afterwards, wasn't watching live.
