flobaba If a ball accidentally hits a defender whilst he or she is defending in his/her box, it should 100% be a penalty. Regardless of context, regardless of where the arms were located. Up or down or behind the back. Matters not.

No way that would be terrible. The CL is much better on hand ball than the PL because it isn't overly strict. Players shouldn't be punished for having arms.

      Qwiss I think it could work if goals were ever so slightly devalued by changing offside to the daylight model. I mean, it's not punishing people for having arms, it's punishing them for failing to play the ball fairly.

        Arm rule on goals is so stupid. Fabs watch the game for goals. Goals are so hard to come by. What do we do? Add an arbitrary rule that makes goals even harder to get?!!

        Gary Neville has now been given the go ahead to get involved.

        I regret that Vieira and Keown never throttled this guy and put him out of the football landscape permanently.

          Why does anyone care what Gary Neville thinks? He showed us at Valencia what he knows about football.

            His best mate Roy Keane doesn't even take him seriously.

            Claudius He has tried to hide it but sometimes the mask slips, he still hates us. Keane has spoken about this before but they absolutely hated us. He thought out ceiling was top 4, he thought Arteta's ceiling was that. They can't stand the fact they are sitting on tv while he manages a top club. That isn't through choice, like @Qwiss says that is due to him being fucking shit as a coach.

              Neville mentions that Michael Oliver has been taken off the Arsenal vs Man City game, supposedly refs aren't allowed to referee the same team in consecutive matches so he wouldn't have done this match anyway....

                JazzG yeah, there is so much unnecessary communication around this. the threats against Michael Oliver, some of which precede our game. Saying he wouldn't referee a game that he is not eligible for anyway. It's all very dishonest.

                      Qwiss they do themselves a disservice. They look fucking insane. What’s crazier is equally insane people like Gary Neville will eat this up.
