tajjuk Posted 19 December, 2021 Share Posted 19 December, 2021 Both were probably red to be honest but if you are giving one more than the other then it's Robertson's. I mean Kane's is a genuine attempt to get the ball, it's just not controlled and ends up being reckless, but Robertson just wanted to kick the shit out of the guy, the ball being vaguely near was coincidence. Bad though VAR doesn't even tell him to go look at the Kane one. The pen for me is probably one, but for the sake of the game stuff like that shouldn't be, he goes down far too easy. it's physical contact but hardly a 'barge' as Redknapp called it. Bet someone like Haaland in that same situation stays on his feet and gets the shot away. But you'd expect them to give pens for that sort of stuff as they do most of the time. Hard to feel sad about Liverpool not getting the decisions for once and to be honest they rode their luck, Spurs should have had 4 at least.

They will find a way to justify it as well. Like these tackles we are seeing. Xhaka & Kane. Reckless, dangerous, out of control. We've had a couple reds this year because there might have been contact that was deemed reckless! Might have been contact!!!!! -What the actual fuck! They are literally making it up as they go along. And the small fry are bearing the brunt! I'm not sure what I dislike the most. The bad decisions, or how they cover for it after.

suewhistle Posted 22 December, 2021 Share Posted 22 December, 2021 It's all a bit thud and blunder at WHL.

LuckyNumber7 Posted 23 December, 2021 Share Posted 23 December, 2021 He was excellent in his first few years here, especially under Koeman, but had been in a steady decline ever since tbh. All those criticisms mentioned by Leicester fans echo what has was said on here even going back to the Puel days. Bad attitude, can't be arsed etc. I think he has a rather laid back style which can wind fans up the wrong way. Either way I wish him no ill, he gave us seven years of good service but was well past his best when he left. Sadly doesn't look like he's up to top level football any more.

HarvSFC Posted 23 December, 2021 Share Posted 23 December, 2021 All this moaning about the fixture list is getting nauseating again. How often do Football League clubs moan about playing Saturday-Tuesday most weeks, a 46 game league season, with fewer squad resources and lower quality facilities? A lot of these sides have had a near two week break also. The want for five subs is coming back again, also. Take Liverpool last night as an example, Klopp got his starting line-up all wrong, 3-1 down at half-time, so he brings on Konate, Jota and Milner at half-time, knowing that he has two more available for the latter stages of the match, making the triple half time sub low risk and extinguishing that tactical element from the game. It's a crap rule that favours the big sides. West Ham only used three subs last night, the ones that weren't used were Noble, Fredericks, Kral, Randolph, Alese and Baptiste, so you can see why. While Spurs brought on Alli, Tanganga, Royal, Winks and Son and saw out the match. Chelsea, the same against Brentford, brought on Jorginho and Pulisic at half-time with the score 0-0, then brought on Mount, James and Kante. Can't compete with that and if it gets voted in, the league has an even greater chasm between the top six and the rest than it does already and you can see why the top clubs want it. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
