We should be at least two up anyway, but Ollie having his customary stinker in the league. I really want him to do well, it’s just not happening at the moment. Oh i agree with you on that - inconsistent referring . But im personally glad that are stomping down on yellows like players waving imaginary yellow cards and time wasting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Your Round Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 I can see why it wasn’t a penalty, he had his back to the ball and his arm was by his side. It did change the trajectory of the ball though. The thing that pisses me off about it is that you just know that gets given against us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've been miles the better side, completely dominated and created at least three very, very good chances. It's been an almost perfect half bar some poor finishing. Maybe taking Watkins off and pushing Diaby up top - he looks like he could play a Kane type forward role, dropping back - he can score from anywhere.

Herman22 Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 People saying Zaniolo should get a yellow don’t understand the rules. The offence is delaying the restart. Nothing was stopping the Palace player picking up one of the many other balls on the sideline and playing on. In reality he threw the ball off the pitch, allowing the game to restart quicker.

Guardian_Angel_M Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 I like Ollie, his overall play is usually good, but there's something clear in that he's not a confident finisher, and that for a striker is something that really stands out. Today he looks out of sorts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats a pen He's not looking at it, it's a powerful shot from fairly close up, and his arm is right down by his side without trying to make himself bigger, no movement of the hand towards the ball. Frustrating one it's blocked a shot, but I'd be absolutely livid if that was given against us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villaphan04 Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 if we hadn't sold Archer, who does he replace in the XI? There's not a position available for him (also add to the fact that Durán was preferred coming off the bench over Archer) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herman22 Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 We should be out of sight here. Real pity the Diaby goal was ruled out, fantastic ball from Pau and amazing first touch and finish from Diaby. Ruined by VAR! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't mind, but the players behind him are grafting to get him the ball, for him to lose it, or shoot a feeble shot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotoMkali Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Really like the way we've lined up with Kamara dropping in as the 3rd defender when in possession and Cash and Digne pushing forward and providing more width. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brummybloke Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Passing has been sloppy all over the pitch. Clearly today we decided to go down the right. Even when digne is completely free we kept going down the right. We need to be switched on here and use both sides as either doug or kamara will drop back . We also seem to be trying to be too intricate at times, our best chances and goal have come from 1 direct pass. Ollie with a huge miss which should have set us on our way and a very tight offside goal ruled out. We also need to shoot more, can't score if we don't shoot. 3 or 4 chances to shoot I recall and all just played back or lost it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobzy Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Apparently the Man Utd disallowed goal might be quite controversial. Haven't seen it at all, but that's VAR getting involved at Old Trafford to disallow a Man Utd goal which apparently never happens according to the conspiracy theorists.
