Bizarre that they ignored the defender nearly having his head kicked off.
-
Inches away from typing 'oh you shingly beach cunts'.
-
What stopped you?
-
Wet Ham's last gasp header narrowly going wide.
Though I guess it's still applicable whatever the result. -
Incorrectly because of the handball, or because of the overhead kick? If the latter I probably agree with you, but they were absolutely right on the handball per the way the rule is currently. You may reasonably disagree with the way the rule is written, but its application today was correct.
-
Incorrect on a number of levels. Not least because it was an intentional handball (hand moves to the ball to control it). A free kick anywhere on the pitch under any circumstances.
If you are going to stop play to analyse some aspects of foul play, why not all of them?
-
I suspect you're the only person not wearing claret and blue who thinks that was intentional.
-
Certainly intentional by the gaslit standards we have come to expect from all of those intentional handballs resulting in penalties, that definitely weren't.
-
Nuno has taken 10 points from 10 games at West Ham, Dyche 10 from 7 here, with 4 of those 7 away and the worst injury list in the division. And people are writing off our chances of finishing above them?
-
To be fair our being a hapless shower of shit would've had a bit to do with that if Brighton hadn't have got that late equaliser.
-
In Nuno early games at West Ham they looked appalling, but he has definitely improved them, they should have won today.
We weren't in such a state when Dyche took oover and I'd say we have got worse in recent games (the three this week have been terrible performances).
The injuries we have are a valid excuse, but we are adding to the list each week not taking folks of it so how much improvement will we see due to returning players is a big unknown. We had few injuries last year and are making up for it this.
-
Or, they won two in a row at the start of last month and otherwise it’s just been a few draws. I’m not saying they won’t finish above us, I just think it’s bizarre to have given up on catching them because we’ve had a bad week. And if you were expecting good football, I think we’ve appointed the wrong manager - it’s mostly going to be pretty ugly, win, draw or lose.
Of our injuries, Murillo is the biggest loss and it sounds like he’s just got a virus and is probably back soon.
-
With Sangare going and Yates hamstring I'm really hoping Luiz isn't far away and that he can play 1.5 games a week for the next couple of months.
No me neither.
-
Think we’ll see Zinchenko playing there at some point.
-
Completely forgot about Luiz. I read somewhere that it's a chronic condition of some kind - I want to say it's something like an intramuscular edema but I could be completely making shit up - and that he's never going to be able to play a large volume of games. Juve docs were apparently trying to manage it and didn't do a great job.
Again I would remind you that our best form, and our best football, since getting promoted came with Anderson and Dominguez in the double pivot.
-
I think you are right about the recurrent oedema. But it is a finding rather than a diagnosis in itself. It can have lots of causes, I don’t know if the primary cause has been identified.
I think you are wrong about our best double pivot, it’s Luiz and Anderson.
-
It would be a much better position for him.
-
It might be. We don't have sufficient body of evidence for that though. The evidence says it's Dominguez and Anderson.
-
It's been almost paint by numbers funny how Martin O'Neill fixed Celtic, and a new manager immediately reverted them to previous type.
