Angus Scott Posted 20 December 2020 Share Posted 20 December 2020 If he was going to get sent off for fouling the obnoxious Grealish, he at least good have made a good job of it & put him out of the game for a significant length of time. If I was still playing & opposed someone like Grealish, especially with such a tempting target of his bare shins, I'm afraid he wouldn't have survived long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arkie Bennett Posted 20 December 2020 Share Posted 20 December 2020 You sometimes see those aggressive but unnecessary fouls, like Livermore's on Grealish, close to the dugouts. I wonder if players feel the need to demonstrate their "commitment" immediately in front of the manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corky Posted 20 December 2020 Share Posted 20 December 2020 Allardyce chomping 12 pieces of Wrigley Extra in one go with his mouth wide open is repulsive. Stop showing it, BT. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vacamion Posted 20 December 2020 Share Posted 20 December 2020 Is it me, or did the Villa goal look like there might be one of those "upper sleeve" offsides like with Maddison's chalked-off goal earlier? They didn't show them drawing the lines and quadruple checking it, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bear Posted 20 December 2020 Share Posted 20 December 2020 (edited) Absolute muck from WBA. That's what you've got to look forward to under The Count Of Monte Bisto, 30% possession, one shot the entire game which was a terrible free kick from about 40 yards, and camping on the edge of your own box at 1-0 down when you need to score.

Where do you stand on WBA as a local rival? Do you want them in the top tier to have that rivalry or would you be happy to see them shit and stay in the lower leagues for a while?

Wymsey Posted 20 December 2020 Share Posted 20 December 2020 VAR should base potential offsides and penalties based on just one clear line, and not numerous and confusing ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want them back up just like they are - completely ill equipped to survive. And then they go and make a laughable managerial change, all the better! This way we get to hopefully beat them in both games just to show the gulf between us then watch them go back down with their tail between their legs. Knowing us though we'll struggle twice and probably get two draws or worse. There's always one team we struggle against for no good reason, it'd just be typical if it were them.

At his point I agree. We're getting too many stupid offsides that no-one wants to see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I felt the ref really didnt want to give us a penalty, fouled right in front of him, called to VAR screen, and then took an eternity to award it when it was so blatant.

StanSP Posted 20 December 2020 Share Posted 20 December 2020 Three of the games in this game week had both a penalty and an own goal scored in them. Everton vs Arsenal Newcastle vs Fulham Our game today Surely can't have happened before to that extent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickyblueeyes Posted 20 December 2020 Share Posted 20 December 2020 I’d hate to play Leeds style. It’s great for the neutral because they’re so gung-ho but it’s stupidity on their part. It’s so disorganised and amateurish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I see on social media (and I don’t even have Facebook) is Leeds fans talking absolute sh!te. Read one today, saying something along the lines of ‘We don’t need to worry about scoring goals, it’s our defence that is the problem’. Which at face value sounds fair enough. But if they pour men forward for 90 mins then of course they’re going to score goals, but they’ll clearly concede plenty too. If they sorted their defence out (by actually doing some defending) then they’d barely score any. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
