Other Games week 19

[dee]

Stones has twisted his ankle making a tackle he didn’t need to

 

[Bradley]

Stones off with a mangled foot.

 

[Modo]

Chelsea are getting a pen

 

[rubans]

City fans chanting "cheating bastards" at Goodison.
Thoughts and prayers with the family and friends of irony at this very sad time.

I always felt City fans are the least likely to understand irony and hypocrisy. They all sound like a manc Ricky Gervais.

 

[Fabio]

Chelsea are getting a pen

And they scored it

 

[Dreambeliever]

Hang on.. why are City allowed to wear their cwc badge in the Premier league?

Rule changed after we cried.

 

[rubans]

That came from rubbish defending originally for the corner from Everton LB. Dyche has done well with these sets of players, they are mostly crap and champ quality.

 

[Dreambeliever]

Inevitable City turn around incoming.

 

[ibromurph]

Unlucky handball. Arm wasn't crazy high, seemed pretty natural and it was from half a yard out.

No consistency with the handball law. Next week, that same handball won't be given.

And it'll probably be in our game where it's denied too.

 

[Dreambeliever]

Don’t know why anyone puts themselves through the pain of expecting anything from Everton.

The march to the top starts today for City.

Absurd inconsistency again that benefits City again.

 

[rubans]

They will blame the definition in the laws which doesn’t help but it’s just too subjective at the moment.
Everton haven’t dome nothing, they are playing like a team from the 70s.

It's unlucky but in this case I think the ref is right. I would have been livid if it wasn't given to us, especially since that shot was heading towards goal.

It was going over by a mile…

 

[Modo]

What a miss

 

[Bradley]

Harrison seems to have a bit about him.

 

[The Nomad]

It was a pen. His hand was above his head.

Calvin -Lewin should have scored though.

I'm livid at the fact that the cunt Coote who's on VAR tonight thought that was a pen when the defender couldn't have his hand anywhere else really (it was in line with his face and not outstretched outside the shape of his body) and was blasted at him from a yard away yet the same Coote cunt didn't think that Odegaard almost catching the ball at slower pace was a pen for us.

LiVARpool my fucking arse.

Headed towards over the goal in my opinion, and by some way.

I genuinely didn't see a moment of arm towards the ball. Nor did I think his arm was in an unnatural position or away from his body. If anything, it was going to smash him in the face.

Unlike Odegaard, where I could clearly see his arm moving towards the ball and away from the body. Nor was he protecting his face.

Going forward, I don't want to see handballs like Onana's against/for us/anyone.

I'm not 100% sure but still none of us would have been fine with that if we weren't given a pen.

Updated my post.

That's my feeling about the Odegaard one.

 

[ibromurph]

It's also interesting to me how City players were allowed to surround/harass the referee into giving that penalty.

Isn't this the same ref that reported VVD for foul/abusive language against Newcastle where he picked up an extra 2 game suspension?

 

[Brizzle]

That was a penalty that only City win.

 

[Modo]

Lol Pickford

 

[ibromurph]

That's my feeling about the Odegaard one.

Tbf, I think the rules should be looked at when it's a handball that's not a shot at goal or stopping a cross etc. I wouldn't mind if it was given as an indirect FK (from next season).

Yes. Let’s make the rules even more complicated

 

[Bradley]

Pickford fucked Everton on the 1st goal and again on the 3rd.

He really is shite.

Disagree entirely. His hand was above his head. Its a stone wall for me. Stop over complicating the rule.

Just like Odegaards was a penalty.

If your hand is away from your body and you divert the ball. It should be a penalty.. just like it would be anywhere else on the pitch.

 

[Dreambeliever]

Everton letting any foolish Liverpool thinking they could get anything from the game down as usual.
