HanoiVillan Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 It wasn't a penalty IMO, but we should have been about 5 down anyway so we've got what we deserve. Big 45 minutes this, the game is probably gone but if there's no effort in the second half either . . . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Targett gets his toe on the ball But for me the telling thing is lacazette sees he's not getting the ball, takes half a step forward then falls over His fall is a dive, its not natural movement reacting to any contact Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lichfield Dean Posted October 22, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted October 22, 2021 The more i think about it the more that penalty goal should not have stood. How long a passage of play would the ref theoretically allow before a goal is scored? Taking the ball to the byline, passing back to a player who then scores? Is that allowed?

nick76 Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 We’ve been shit but once the penalty was took wasn’t the half over? The follow up shouldn’t count should it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 No way a penalty but what was Targett making that challenge for. Sums up the half, we seemed hurried, panicky and not at the races. Hate to say it but we have not replaced Grealish with a player that can the heat of the game and keep the ball., Maybe Bailey can make a difference. But that was rubbish!

Arsenal deserve to be at least 3-0 up, perhaps more. I agree. I’m sure there have been some absolute shockers but I genuinely cannot remember ever playing this badly. This was lost as soon as he stuck with the same **** formation as last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferguson1 Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Arsenal well worthy of a 2-0 lead. Could have been 4 or 5. We have been a horrific. Smith really is on thin ice persisting with this formation. We look uncomfortable and it needs to change, starting now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robtaylor200 Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 May not be a penalty, doesn't really mater to me , playing this way we don't deserve to be in contention. This formation does not work for our team. would love to see 3 the back, 4 in the middle, 2 wingers and Ings on his own , but it wont happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvonVillain Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 I think the brave or something else question has been answered in regards formation. As a massive Dean Smith fan, I'm worried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreveryoung Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Starting to worry Terry and O'Kelly were the brains behind 433. Shakespeare and Smith are struggling there bulls off with this formation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
