How hard does the shot have to be for it to be alright to use your arms? 40mph? 60mph? 100mph?So say the rules, sure, but punishing a person for protecting his head in what I can only assume was an entirely natural reaction, is certainly worth arguing over.
Not any more. Used to be 4th had to go through the play-offs but now automatically to the group stage.Lads look knackered, but all we need is 2 draws
Btw does it matter if we finish 3rd or 4th in terms of qualifying for the champions League group stage?
And if he ducks and it flies in to the net? He has to take that on the chin, no pun intended. He’s just a wimp plain and simple. If you can’t take a shot to the face then ask Ole to be relieved of defensive duties. Of all my time playing football from young age up until mid 20’s — I’ve never seen chicken out of a shot like that. No excuse for it.He can always duck to avoid the ball.
Stop these weird excuses. It's an intentional handball. If this was for us I'll be screaming to the screen for it to be called a pen.
I don't blame Pogba for his natural reflexes, shit happens. But it's a penalty and confusing the rules even more will just make it even worse.So say the rules, sure, but punishing a person for protecting his head in what I can only assume was an entirely natural reaction, is certainly worth arguing over.
