54 Posted Thursday at 20:39 Share Posted Thursday at 20:39 Remember when we played these in pre-season last year, and Howe played an entirely different system that day compared to the opening game of the season. Emery has been reeling ever since and Eddie has had his number whenever we've played them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone on there wants to bash our club at every opportunity, and everyone who supports the club gets downvoted to fuck. There is also a massive skew to the Arsenal and Liverpool cry babies on there. Oh yeah. The first thread I passed on the tackle it somehow turned in to a circlejerk about how refs hate Salah.

Chris_R Posted Thursday at 20:46 Share Posted Thursday at 20:46 (edited) 43 minutes ago, Lush Vlad said: Emery going bananas about the red and saying they’ll appeal. Might be wrong. But I don’t remember many genuine protests from their players. Duran and the rest of them all knew he was guilty. Genuinely don’t know what the fuck people are seeing. Had all the time in the world to get out the way. Thought the left was accidental at first, but that looks worse the more you see it. The right is not even up for debate IMO. Also, this whole ‘did he mean to’ (he clearly did) is kind of irrelevant, no? Plenty of studs up and stamp type tackles often don’t seem deliberate. But are still red cards. Curtis Jones last year at Spurs. Sadio Mane one year on Ederson for a high boot are examples that spring straight to mind. The way I look at the tackle is this... If my foot was coming down onto someone who I cared about and I didn't want that to happen, I'd find another way to land. He had options and chose not to take them.

Notice how he runs normally, and slowing down by bending his knees to avoid Schärs feet, while looking at him. But all of a sudden he decides to straighten his left leg and plant it at Schär after looking at him for a second or so to see where he is (strange how he "accidentally" put his foot there while he'd been looking straight at him). The left one looked more deliberate imo, because the movement was out of the blue. With his right foot atleast you can make the argument that he was falling.

Anyone who has played to any level knows you have near perfect situational awareness in incidents like that. You know precisely where that other player is, you know how to avoid hurting them, and you know how you can hurt them. There isn't a doubt that Duran has made a predetermined move to get near Schar with his left foot stride and then gone for the "oops my right foot landed on him accidentally and raked his back as a lost balance" move. It was clumsy and calculated. The guy is a basket case. No wonder Villa wanted shot of him over the summer. He's gonna do something absolutely mental in the future.

Hanshithispantz Posted Thursday at 20:52 Share Posted Thursday at 20:52 (edited) I can only assume anyone who thinks John Duran couldn't move his foot whilst in mid air are massively fat and immobile or something. If you're not a sociopath and have normal motor skills your subconscious will automatically adjust your foot, he pretty much verified it when he instantly hoofed a water bottle when the VAR confirmed his dismissal.

Erikse Posted Thursday at 20:56 Share Posted Thursday at 20:56 (edited) Also important to remember that time "moves slower" for these players. They react very fast to everything. That one second for Duran would be like 3 or more second for the man on the street. For instance you can see it when Bruno smashes that pass in to Isak, and he just casually recieves it perfectly with his left, when people like us wouldn't even have time to move until the ball had passed us.

wormy Posted Thursday at 20:57 Share Posted Thursday at 20:57 Oh I've now discovered what we've all been missing. Apparently both stamps were the absolute only directions he could've possibly gone to avoid Schar kicking him in the nuts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ste Posted Thursday at 20:59 Share Posted Thursday at 20:59 After his right foot makes contact with Schar, he kicks out with it. If it’s accidental, it would plant into his back. He’s in full control, as displayed by his left foot slowing his momentum to allow the right to make contact. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheHoob Posted Thursday at 21:00 Share Posted Thursday at 21:00 Aye, how often are players in similar situations and manage to not stand on the opponent? There are a lot of options other than standing on someone full force, leg braced with metal studs raking into them Surely the natural reaction is to try and avoid them, and if that can't be done, try and land on your knees/arse/anywhere but studs first, certainly not twice Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted Thursday at 21:01 Share Posted Thursday at 21:01 Looks to me like he intentionally gets Schar with his left as he appears to move his foot to connect with Schar. This in turn rolls his ankle and if he’d just let momentum take him he’d have fallen to his left, there was no need to plant his right boot. The more I look at it the more it looks like it took a bit of effort to stop his momentum to catch Schar with his right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Venkman Posted Thursday at 21:14 Share Posted Thursday at 21:14 Agree with everyone saying the left foot is deliberate. Too many getting hung up on the right foot during the game IMO. That left foot stretch is as unnatural as it comes. He deliberately stamped on him with both feet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
