Commentators didnt expalin it terribly well tbh
Premier League Gameweek 6
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Why didn’t the city player get booked? The most blatant tactical foul.
Thank you
So the new rule is that if he gives advantage he cant give a yellow card later? That whats the swedish commentator said.
Mind the time herrera got sent of for persistent team fouling in the first half? Ha
First time ive heard that. Silly of true. Any middle of the park foul you would rather a yellow than advantage
As far as I'm aware (though I could be wrong) it gets ruled out if the person who gets it after the handball scores or creates the goal.
So handball > goal, handball > pass > goal or handball > falls to teammate > pass > goal.
In this case it was handball > pass > pass > goal, so no dice.
Yes because the advantage effectively voids the foul. Silly rule.
After seeing that yellow not given to Gundogan you kind of understand why people throw themselves to the ground when they clearly could've kept running...
More or less how i read it as well
For West Ham goal.
I don't know. But if you freeze, zoom in and check it there is a handball. Or am I wrong?

New rule. Read a few posts up
That can’t be right?
You are getting it wrong. Any indiscretions in goals scored against City should be ignored.
That would be a really stupid rule if it's true.
Its really stupid. The whole attack was slowed down and no punishment given at all.
Watch city do this even now this season, with this rule.
It's not that you're wrong. It's just that your posting in a tone of inquiry that could be interpreted as sympathetic to the City cnuts.
Swedish commentators are wrong.
But still I don't get it. New rule or not. He was clearly in build up. In icehockey, he would get assist. Without handball West Ham don't get so much time to produce anything. He got big advantage by that.
Haha. For me it is about what is right. No matter who it is.
Next yellow card is a west ham player, guarentee it
I would love for us to sign Rice. He's the perfect successor to Matic, and can even fill in at CB.
City games are a weird watch this season.
You can't quite enjoy them struggling in games, as you know it's very likely they're the only ones with even a remote hope of stopping Liverpool - despite the VD blow

City have dropped levels this year, just enjoy it. They arent picking up with Peps contract situation becoming more and more problematic as the season goes on.
The league is wide open
City very sub-par without KdB.
Agreed. Now that we've had a good 8/9 months of watching him mature, I'd buy him. He has come on well. Intelligent,combative and growing in stature
Came here to post the same thing.
Another lethargic performance with no fire or drive. I'm beginning to think Pep has lost the ability to fire up the team, the more I see of us lately the more I think he's leaving and we're getting Pellers final season styled performances. Also Rodri, Gundo in midfield always equals sideways passing and poor in defence. Aguero looks like he's really struggling to get full fitness and sharpness back, we could play another 4 hours here and not score.
They've had more fouls, that would make sense
I wonder how Eric Garcia starts over Stones?
City without Aguero, Silva and KDB is a different beast.
Agree on the first bit.
I really don't think the league is at all wide open in terms of the title. Other positions maybe.
It just means Liverpool will win by 6-9 points rather than 18
You know Aguero is on the pitch don't you?
The guy that handled it passed the ball to someone else who crossed the ball. Its not immediate. Read the rule, if you care about what is right, then come back to us.
I doYou know Aguero is on the pitch don't you?
Teams foul, its the blatant fouls that get the cards fron which City have had more.
Looks like English football had figured Pep out anyway, all it does is get the opposition up the pitch. Nobody is scared to commit players forward against them anymore.
It is fitness. City players are tired since Pep is not providing them with enough PED anymore.
Oh well it didn’t hit his arm at all then.
I still cant see how that isnt a pen?
Just saw the score, City really need to get their s*** together. I can't handle another Liverpool title.
Look at the amount of outrage, how many replays and discussion the 'handball' is getting. Guaranteed this would not be happening for any other team apart from Liverpool, where to this day the Pickford challenge is analysed like a war crime.
