Jimmy_D Posted 31 October, 2021 Share Posted 31 October, 2021 Not sure what the rules are regarding it having been seen on VAR already, but surely that forearm smash needs to be upgraded to a red? Wouldn’t be surprised to see the red that was given overturned though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id love to see the reaction on this place if we appointed someone like Moyes. A real shame he wasn’t given the time Ole has been at United as it’d have been interesting to see how things would have panned out. Yes, West Ham are a very good team at the moment. Just shows what a great job Ralph did to get Saints to shut them out completely and to be the breadth of a goalpost/an exceptional goal line clearance away from beating them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tajjuk Posted 31 October, 2021 Share Posted 31 October, 2021 (edited) Yeh odd one that, because there is no way he needed to tackle like that, even if not deliberate very clumsy and dangerous. Villa fans moaning the other one wasn't a red but clearly Bowen was in on goal and no one else was getting back, you could see he'd even got into a body position to push the ball back near the centre for the shot on his left foot. Also Moyes was awful at Sunderland and Sociedad, and just not suited to Utd. I think he's struck lucky with getting some gem low cost signings like Soucek and Coufal that really suit his style of play, plus Antonio having this late bloom as a real handful of a number 9.

Quote He looks so fucking fed up, just let him go in January this is totally pointless keeping a player who clearly has no interest in playing for Spurs. Levy masterclass wasn't it?

I'm not sure that's true. Play only stops when the ref blows his whistle. For example, if a ref waved play on to give advantage and the defending team then went and conceded a penalty during the ensuing attack, the ref can still go back and issue a card for the first foul, and still give the penalty.

I thought this too, but on Sky afterwards they said that the VAR people confirmed to them that there was a possibility that both Hause and Konsa could have been shown reds in that same review period. Didn't even know that was possible. It would have been hilarious to see the reaction if they both got red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah i thought Fred was slightly lucky in the game vs Spurs. Committed the same cynical foul against 2 different players in the same move. Whilst very unusual i do remember seeing Chris Baird getting 2 yellows during an advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not snobbery to say someone who is doing badly is doing badly. Moyes is now doing well, and that's great for West ham, but it isn't fair to retroactively criticise those who assessed him before he turned things around. They were working with the info they had.

Sheaf Saint Posted 1 November, 2021 Share Posted 1 November, 2021 Everton fans on GOT forum not a happy bunch. Already sick of the 'play it safe' football being dished up by Benitez and want him gone. Lots of them reckon they are headed the way Villa went a few years ago, and they could be in trouble over FFP as well so could be looking at a points deduction. It's a good job they're not in the process of building a shiny new £500m stadium that will totally bankrupt them if they end up in the Championship isn't it 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were also without Digne last night who is one of their best players.

tajjuk Posted 2 November, 2021 Share Posted 2 November, 2021 (edited) They've done the usual Everton thing, start the season well all their fans get carried away talking about European football and then they hit their usual crap form. I also get the impression with Everton, that whilst on paper you'd say they have a better squad than ours, it's a bit like Spurs, you get the impression they are a bit soft, maybe a bit too full of themselves so they don't grind out results or fight as hard as they should. Doubt they will get a points deduction and if they get Calvert-Lewin back they are not going to be anywhere near relegation. But I don't think them, Villa or Wolves are particularly any better than us. Edited 2 November, 2021 by tajjuk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
