Just seen the disallowed goal again and it looked like it hit the Villa players hand first!

JazzG Just seen the disallowed goal again and it looked like it hit the Villa players hand first!

All of the handballs were accidental. It got ruled off because the goalscorer can't accidentally handle the ball. Anyone else can. Kinda weird rule but it was judged correctly here.

JazzG was posted above but accidental In the box by defender isn't usually given but forward where there is a goal does get penalised.

JazzG

DiabyKungFu That’s a shocking rule if true.

JazzG

awooga83 Only given if against Arsenal, like at Chelsea!

Definitely hit Cash's hand first , but they'll never give a penalty for that , so for the second action they'll say the Havertz handball contributed to the goal so it won't be allowed. They'll do all they can to fuck us over though , expect more garbage refereeing this season

I'm so so annoyed Villa made it easy to play against us and we didn't capitalise their high line. So fuckng annoyed. We didn't go vertical enough.

awooga83

Clrnc I think my annoyance is this isn't just a one game thing our attack is not functioning well, whether it's because of a deliberate control ball strategy or at just don't do anything we are supposed to. Horseshoe attack is far too predictable and ineffective and we are so slow in attack.

goon

You guys are jokers. All the pre-match talk is about how this is going to be a really though game, hardly a single prediction had us winning. As it is we did more than enough to draw and probably win the game and did infinitely better than City. And the conclusion is we have problems, certainly players were a ‘disgrace’ and need an overhaul…

awooga83

goon there was also lots of well we've got the heads up on how they play a team like us and an extra days rest. It's all well and good "doing better" then city but ultimately if the result of the same is pretty worthless thing to hold up as a positive.

DiabyKungFu after the second half we just played? It was a disaster.

Gazza M

Rohit so many times there was a simple pass on between the lines, and the players were too scared or too drilled to pick it out. and on the occasion they did pick the pass, the receiver- ode being the main offender - was super passive, took a poor touch or picked the wrong ball. just a god awful display of attacking football, which felt like a few chickens coming to roost after we've gotten away with it for so long this season

Sicario2 - Tier 1

Simply wasn’t mean to be today

DiabyKungFu

The real egregious call was not giving the penalty for Luiz's kick on Jesus. I don't understand the justification for that at all.

JazzG

DiabyKungFu

I mean what do you even say at this point

JazzG

Looks over to him and nails him.

Gazza M

JazzG he's been a thug his whole career. laughable he was allowed to stay on

JazzG

Was it reviewed by VAR?

naz

Elbows are ok against us

QuincyAbeyie

What's the point of this league when the teams aren't the ones deciding the outcomes?

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

I'm so fed up of this league.

Segway

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert What's the point even trying? The league is rigged.
