IMO England is one of the worst refs on the PL list and how he got to FIFA level too is beyond me. Correct to send off Wharton but never fully in control of the game and lacks authority. Doesn’t get a grip with games loses control and resorts to cards. It’s never a penalty but if it is surely it’s a red card?
At city free kick late on Fernandes was allowed to pick up the ball throw about 20 yards thus delaying the start. The free kick was taken from the original place. No sanction for Fernandes, (Edited, Just NO)
Was this the one where the offence happened 3 yards from the corner flag? Yet the city keeper took it almost 20 yards further forward. Something else Taylor let city get away with
Clearly no 5cm rule in operation for United’s 3rd disallowed goal which looks onside on every replay
He’s had no control whatsoever. Joelinton lucky to be on the pitch. Bernardo silva with 2 poor tackles as well and then getting in Kavanagh’z ear but that’s typical guardiola behaviour. Numerous times clear holding in the box completely ignored. The var check is a joke, pope is in no man’s land so not offside for me
From what I have read, Kirkby was absolutely right to send Grealish off and I applaud his action in doing so. I haven't seen the hair pulling incident but some have described it as accidental. Was it?
Accidental, no. Instinctive as opposed to calculated, maybe.
Agree. It was more like someone falling who grabbed anything to hand to stabilise themselves. It does not diminish in any way that it was a sending off offence and it was a reckless act that endangered the safety of an opponent. It could be argued that it was SFP for those reasons and less VC as it was not a deliberate violent act.
Which is it? Reckless (which is a yellow card in law) or endangering safety of an opponent (which is a red card)
I don’t think he was that good. Got the big decision correct but then weak mentality. Enzo carried on showing dissent and Bankes let him get away with it. A lot of needle and bite throughout I thought he didn’t really get a grip on. Fo me he doesn’t had the same authority as the likes of Taylor Oliver Gillett and brooks
As for silva it’s about time he got along ban. Never seen a manger booked after gaining a decision before
Kirk was excellent and glad he dealt with grealish who has always been an entitled petulant child. I’ve watched the first red back about 15 times now I’m still not sure. It’s not deliberate like the one on cucurella a few yrs back. I think Keane misjumps but pulls his hair for leverage. Not sure it was particularly violent or serious. For me not a clear and obvious mistake
One thing I’m really struggling to get my head around, there have been much tighter offside calls than this, where literally an earlobe or a toenail is offside and is so close that you can’t actually call it with the naked eye, yet have still been given as offside? This one is very clear, Wirtz is obviously offside, yet all of a sudden we’re talking about 5cm tolerances? If that is really the case, then so many previously disallowed goals should have been allowed to stand, surely? The whole thing stinks to me. This is clearly an error, yet they want to hide behind a rule that has seemingly never been used before. Dreadful, and for me personally, all faith has finally been lost in the PGMOL.
They do come up with the most brilliant of bulls*** stories when it’s the big clubs particularly Liverpool involved. It’s embarrassing now
I guess for games in London, it's more straightforward to either fly or get the train down, whereas it's not quite as easy for games like Bournemouth, where there isn't a direct connection by train/plane from most of the UK.
Frequent trains from Manchester to Bournemouth every day?
