Smal Posted Saturday at 14:45 Share Posted Saturday at 14:45 He's getting better, by the way. He has developed his proactive defending so much this season and that's down to him and good coaching. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It proves it didn't hit him on the shoulder like you suggested I have seen the replay several times, you don't need to deny obvious facts just because he's a Newcastle player. There's a separate question as to whether his hand is in a 'natural position' or not, but it quite clearly hits him on the upper arm. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the ball is touching his arm in that image (it's grainy from a terrible angle) it's still not handball Edited Saturday at 16:56 by nemtizz Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does, but it looked like he was trying to put his chest forward and pull his arm away. So, not deliberate and no booking Edited Saturday at 16:56 by madras Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shak Posted Saturday at 17:02 Share Posted Saturday at 17:02 He's become this season what he always should have been, a very capable CB who can play LB in a pinch and do a serviceable job there. It's a pity he and Botman are both left footed because you could make a very strong case that they're our two best CBs at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a pity he and Botman are both left footed because you could make a very strong case that they're our two best CBs at the moment. I'm fairly sure this right footed/left footed thing is fairly recent and doesn't have to be, especially as recently our tactics have included Burn pushing right up on a deep lying forward or attacking midfielder often to within 30yds of their goal and others folding in to cover the lanes and space.

Checko Posted Saturday at 17:17 Share Posted Saturday at 17:17 I'm planting my flag in the sand here and saying that having centre backs who are opposite-footed really doesn't fucking matter. What really matters is that you have two good players that work well together. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
