If he does it every week then he's a great player. That's not what happened It's the new normal that divings ok 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not seen James incident Was probably a dive Diving goes on in every EPL game unpunished weekly nowadays 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 That's not what happened It's the new normal that divings okTell us what you think about the scenario I described where a forward deliberately goes across a defender when they are both running towards goal?Is the forward cheating in that scenario, taught to, and expected of, all forwards from youth level? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Receiving contact does not automatically mean it is a penalty It's a contact sport You have to be impeded for it to be a penalty When you're running at full pace alongside someone and purposely stick your leg across their path to receive contact and go down Doesn't mean you've been impeded. You've concocted the situation completely dishonestly to make it look like the other player fouled you 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crawford Bridge Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Mane is a shitehouser but in this situation it's a foul any day of the week. Literally nobody agrees with you Binos, he was chopped by a clumsy defender who wasn't aware of his surroundings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Moomintroll Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Man gets ahead of other man, other man inexplicably kicks man in back of leg, man falls down, fairly easily but then who doesn't in that situation. It really is a straightforward penalty shout. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armand 2 Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 'Counselling' for Granit Xhaka is one of the most laughable things I've heard. Laissez-faire management is all good and well but Emery should have been dragging Xhaka by the balls to a press conference to apologise, whether he wanted to or not. The fact he's apparently not ready to apologise and 'wants the apology to be genuine' is just a further reflection of Emery's complete and utter lack of authority. I'll be having a bet on Rodgers being at Arsenal by start of next season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without trying to paraphrase Roy Keane, there's no leaders and a serious lack of character in their dressing room. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look at all of the successful EPL teams in recent times they all had at least one of those two, especially the midfield general from the Roy Keane, Patrick Viera & Claude Makelele era to the Fernandinho, N'Golo Kante, Fabinho generation of nowadays, they all had this sort of player 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, no matter who you have as a manager, if you don't have the team to be competitive you are not going to compete. To be fair to them Guendouzi looks like he could develop into that role but he's a few years away from being an elite midfield destroyer 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
