buzza Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Had kenedy passed the ball first time to gayle on our only breakaway the game would hva been very different. Bad decision albeit on a good outing again... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jong24 Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Bet he was one of our lot. WBCP was there and says the invader was giving w***** signs to the away end. So thankfully one of theirs. Fair enough. I can confirm he was one of theirs. Mind one of the stewards took the guy out with a amazing nfl style hit! Got one of the biggest cheers of the day.

Bimpy474 Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 File under 'highly annoying result that could have been much better'. There have been a staggering number of these this season. Fine margins that amazingly a better striker and say a proper 10 might have helped solve. Then again fat Mike knows better don't he. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinoasprilla Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 They looked dangerous on their left. In the first half Van Aanholt got past Ritchie far too easy. In the second him and Zaha doubled up on Yedrlin. For me I'd have hooked Ritchie (did he pass the ball forwards once in the second half) and put Murphy on. At least he has the legs to keep pace or run Van Aanholt the other way Diame, Shelvey, Lascelles and Kenedy the positives. Gayle and Ritchie the negatives i hope neither start another game this season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Says it all that Benteke didn’t even appeal for a penalty and looked totally bemused when the whistle blew. 6 of 1 and half a dozen of the other. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klaus Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Shearer spot on again. It is a penalty though, just the law isn’t enforced consistently. Then technically every corner, every free kick into the box and most crosses are penalties. Well yeah, but if the laws were enforced correctly and consistently, players would eventually stop shirt pulling. It happens all the time because they know it is rarely penalised.

Well yeah, but if the laws were enforced correctly and consistently, players would eventually stop shirt pulling. It happens all the time because they know it is rarely penalised. If the laws were applied correctly the assistant ref has to be sure that the shirt pull was before the Benteke push off, which it wasn't Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearergol Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Thought during the game that Shelvey has been found out at this level. They just had someone on him at all times which restricted his passing. If he can't pass he's not really doing much more, so ended up being a complete passenger. Good as his passing is, he clearly needs to play for a much better team so he gets that space, but that'll never happen as he doesn't do anything else.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Not 100% sure about that, he didn't run the game but he was also the only one showing any composure. My worries about Shelvey are more defensive than on the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Shelvey had a great first 45 mins, then he completely disappeared in the second half. Composure or not, he shouldn't go missing if he's our main midfielder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
