AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 we need some form of assistant referee with access to video imo Yep, and I think maybe a change to the foul rules or penalty rules. Just to tip the balance back away from diving forwards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Bakayoko useless idiot s****. I watched some analysis videos of him recently. His touch, passing and positional awareness are absolutely s****. And he has zero work rate. Its actually hilarious how poor he is considering the price. Wouldn't be happy if we paid £4m for him. How have they managed to get that so wrong man I mean ... what on earth were the scouts looking at for goodness sake. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinport53 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I'm sure there was a CL game where his touch was so bad he nutmegged himself and then slipped out of play trying to recover it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Sky: no doubt it’s a penalty. Absolutely disgraceful the pundits won’t call this cheating, it’ll never stop until people start saying it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 It’s infuriating how we have fallen into a world where contact = penalty, because we are seeing more and more where players who win the penalty are the ones who have initiated the contact, rather than the other way round. Deloufeu hits his leg into Courtois and then arches his back and flies to the floor. Yesterday, Kane kicked his foot into Karius’ shoulder as he was already diving to the floor. Vardy is awful for it too. It’s cheating, it should be stopped and these players should all be banned. You should only be getting a penalty if the contact is initiated by the opponent and is sufficient to make you lose your feet. Fuck off with saying ‘he’s running so fast the slightest touch would knock him off balance’, pitiful excuse and there is no way that the contct today or yesterday was enough to send anyone flying off their feet.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 They need to change the rules for a penalty now, maybe something like the attacker has to be attempting to control the ball or something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggs Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I think that's a pen from the angle I've seen. There's a slight touch I think and it stops him from continuing his run and getting to the ball Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said it yourself, a ‘slight touch’, not a chance in hell does that slight touch (that Deloufeu initiated) is enough for him to put both of his legs together and dive in the air - he could easily have carried on running with nee bother there.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I’m pretty sure the foul rule doesn’t say anything about brushing lightly against another player, or an attacker reaching out their leg to make sure they’re touched. It just makes a farce out of the game, it’s disgusting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angle from directly in front of the incident. A slight touch of your ankle when you're sprinting flat out can easily make you fall like.

Mikky Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Football is well and truly f***ed if they think that's a penalty, honestly absolutely f***ed. the bit that pisses me off is when a pundit (Owen) says he's "been clever" - no he's fucking cheated, just like you did in your career you cunt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimbo Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I’m pretty sure the foul rule doesn’t say anything about brushing lightly against another player, or an attacker reaching out their leg to make sure they’re touched. There's contact so he had the right to go down, that's what a ref whose name I can't remember said about Kane's yesterday. And I've heard it a million times before from people in the game. People that want it to remain a contact sport are fighting a losing battle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

People that want it to remain a contact sport are fighting a losing battle. But it’s only in the box really, that’s the weird thing. In open play there’s plenty of contact without anyone throwing themselves to the ground at the slightest touch. Players still want contact in the game, some of them are just absolutely disgraceful cheats when it comes to getting a free goal. I would honestly consider abolishing the penalty and just having a free kick from where the foul was. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the only thing in his mind. Courtois is the one moving towards him, not the other way around. Deulofeu is in a perfectly natural position to follow the ball when he gets fouled. He feels the contact and makes a meal of it, yes but you have to do that if you want a penalty Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
