Why does VAR even have to be sat elsewhere when there is a monitor on the ground? If the onfield ref, linos, or 4th official want to review something, just let them check the pitchside monitors themselves.
They were speechless because they didn't know what the hell was going on...one line drawn for offside but not the other, then looking at Lenglet either fouling or being in keeper's view, etc, then back to original offside view
Ben Crellin is good for DGW info. Other than that, I think the only other time I really used content makers etc was for early team news on the last GW of the season.
See a striker in on goal rugby tackled from behind to stop a goal scoring opportunity with no pen given would be quite entertaining.
I do agree though that not every foul in the box should be a pen...most should be indirect FKs.
Yeah him not playing against SHU worked out like that as I got Archer off the bench with 8. Problem is that with TAA out, I'm already having to use one of my budget defenders. Two in one GW if DC doesn't play is maybe too much.
One FT left. I feel like Diego Carlos to Estupinan is a no-brainer, but I just have a feeling DC is due a big differential game (if he starts) and was planning to do that transfer next week anyways. Estupinan could easily haul too, though...
Trent is a tricky one too. It's possible he only misses one GW. On the other hand, if I bin him off and don't bring him back, I could potentially end up with a squad of Haaland, KDB, Salah, Watkins, and Saka
But that's just journalism in a nutshell nowadays, isn't it? It's all about the SENSATIONAL headline to make you click and quickly scroll through an article that's completely opinion biased with poor grammar and not fact checked because everyone is in a rush to be up to date.
Don't twist my words on this one as I'm not speaking towards his incompetence specifically, but I think he has refereed one match in the past year without having VAR by his side. Again, not excusing his performance, but have to wonder if referees are so used to having VAR as a crutch to rely on that their own skills are being diminished.
It is, but if we are going to be putting 16 (then 17) year olds in the "premier" tournament off the back of two-weeks of form, what message does that send to your older players who have, quite frankly, accomplished more over the course of the year? Or to the younger players, that they just need to play out of their minds for two weeks and that's enough?
They put him in the Premier League, which is a mini-competition containing the "eight best". I think it's a joke to be honest...lad had a couple of good weeks and they're capitalizing financially because of the whirlwind around him.
