I think the ref has been kind that he knows he wouldn’t have probably just warned him last year about throwing the ball back on. That's not the point, though. It's his job to apply the laws. Not cautioning TAA for that foul is a complete bottle job. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 I'm only half joking when I say I see this as the battle for second place here. I don't even think City have improved, and I think Newcastle and Liverpool both have. I just think the gap is that big. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No_Problemo Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 The first Trent booking is ridiculous tbh, and is a referee over emphasising the new rules. He doesn’t remotely throw the ball away, he throws it back on to the pitch after it rolls towards him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 I think the ref has given 'Trent' the benefit of the doubt as a reward for coming back this season with a better haircut. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But... it's no excuse for bottling it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was another Liverpool player there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throwing the ball onto the pitch prevents a quick throw as much as kicking the ball away. As for over emphasis, yeah anytime there’s a rule change that happens early season, the refs are making a point which they then relax on as the season goes and the message the rule change was trying to make begins to get understood, right or wrong players should be ready for that. 2 minutes ago, Todd_is_God said: That's not the point, though.

Jim McLean's Ghost Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 The pass from Salah back to Trent was not ideal, hard at a short distance onto his weaker foot. VVD looks a bit unlucky on the replay 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
