Well, well, well @roonster09
The same poor officiating which overlooked a clear handball by Ali and didn‘t even book Sanchez for a last man tackle on Richarlison?It wasn't VAR, the referee just changed his own mind. Completely agree with the decision to overturn and it's very frustrating to miss out on our first away win in 10 months due to this poor officiating.
Decision overturned so looks like refs don’t agree with you
Well, well, well @roonster09
It's not the refs who overturned the decision.
Draw was definitely a fair result, both teams play was slow and uninspired. Felt like I was watching United play.The same poor officiating which overlooked a clear handball by Ali and didn‘t even book Sanchez for a last man tackle on Richarlison?
A draw is probably a fair result. Tough the injury to Gomes makes it feel like a loss.
That argument can easily be turned around. If refs could spot a foul when a player didn’t go down then they wouldn’t have to go down and highlight tackles that put them at a disadvantage.If players and managers weren't such cheating cnuts then refs wouldn't be having so many problems officiating.
That's an idiotic argument. Players have a responsibility not to be cheating cnuts. Refs have to think hard about fouls in the box because there is so much simulation.That argument can easily be turned around. If refs could spot a foul when a player didn’t go down then they wouldn’t have to go down and highlight tackles that put them at a disadvantage.
How many goals is Sterling’s honesty worth there? That game ended 2-2 IIRC. Same with Martial trying to get that shot off against Palace when Kelly pulled him down.
I might be misremembering history, but I’m fairly sure those no attempt to win the ball tackles used to be deemed professional fouls and straight reds. I’m not sure when they became ok as ‘taking one for the team’ and only getting a yellow.Red shouldn't be overturned. It's clear that Son had no chance of getting the ball, it's also clear that Gomes had his ankle snapped in the first contact with Son, and not Aurier as some have suggested.
Taking away the severity of the injury, tackles like this, cynical and designed to stop the player rather than win the ball, should start being automatic reds, would cut out what is in effect cheating.
Yup. feck his incredulity.Absolute cretins. Son is a disgrace.
Kicked out at rudiger. Definate redWhat did Son do this time? Haven't been watching.
No he doesn't, but it's got the VAR's attention which in turn got Son sent off so I'd say in this case it was justified.Definitely a nasty move from Son but does Rudiger need to drop and roll like he's been shot.
