Huge chance

... such a lack of basic quality there.

Class goal that.

Let's not start with diving now please.

Pretty sad.

Another free kick and talking to for playing the ball.

Haha, what a coward this ref.

Hayden booked for winning the ball.

 

Dont think he did, thought the ref just had a word.

Nah, no booking... all very stupid

What in the fuck? Got the ball.

Nice little hat trick of non clearing the first player by Ritchie there.

Christ.

What an annoyingly good save.

That is one of my bigger concerns with the use of technology. I don't trust the modern day officiating bodies to make good calls.

We'll likely end up with loads more non fouls being brought up as opposed to an overwhelming wave of correct decisions.

It would push the levels of bullshit in football even further and we'll hear even more often "There was contact", "his arm was out", "you can't stand like that" etc... to justify game changing decisions over nothing.

Real Madrid, Chelsea, Santos, Independiente

Nice fucking off to South America!

The gift that just keeps on deceiving.

I know that PSG have to balance the books, but Matuidi shouldn't be the first out of the door imho.

That does seem like a strange one and especially at the price. Thought he was a favourite there too.

Would be losing an asset and losing value on him too.

PFM forums, more like.

Amirite?

And the tweeter, John Atkinson, is in seat 9D apparently

Clear lies.

... Bordeaux didn't renew his contract. He's without a club at the moment.

The player designated as the keeper has to be clearly identified by wearing the different shirt. So there would have to be some stoppage. And I imagine if a team did it every five minutes, the refs would eventually start booking people for time wasting or sending managers to the stands

Can you change who's in goal once you selected an outfield player to take the place of the GK (whether sent off or injured)

I'd imagine so, it's technically no different than having players swap wings for example.

It was embarrassing. Even the families had said they would rather it stopped, iirc.

It's hard to believe that he didn't abuse that Wolves player btw, when you consider the consistency with which he does stupid things.

Don't think there's too much doubt over that one even before today. The written report that was produced was pretty damning.

See that a lot these days even for minor injuries as a precaution.

... Still, not great is it.

Also if you're determined to get a straight red for an attack on Alli, then make it count

Apologies mean little when it's happened before.

Not too bothered, let's get Merino out there.

It's more deliberate every time I see it.

That angle from behind the two players with the ref right there watching is crazy.

How absolutely stupid.
