Robtaylor200 Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 Offside rule is crazy now. I happily take the goal But I prefer the old old oldest off side rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoony Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 Just saw our third. I’d be going mental at VAR if we had conceded that one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brummybloke Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 Having the midfield 3 of kamara mcginn and Luiz with luiz the one pressing has got us on the front foot, as has emis long balls to watkins. It's been a while since we used high intensity aggressive play when off the ball and it is clearly working today so far. 2 good watkins goals, diaby with 3 or 4 chances but held onto the ball a fraction too long but was there for the 3rd goal. In other games, especially if we were playing the top 6 2 of those goals I could see being disallowed, zaniolo being near the keeper offside for watkins 2nd and Luiz clash 20 seconds before the 3rd. The only player not quite on it is zaniolo so far, the speed of the game at the moment seems he is a second behind, but again I think he is better on the right hand side. Top marks though all round so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MakemineVanilla Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 Estupiñán seems to be getting the referee's sympathy vote - three fouls, a blatent deliberate block, and two late tackles, should have earned him a yellow. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgyknees Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 We could really do with not leaking a goal early in the second half. They are going to come at us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to understand how the xG is derived from 7x as many total shots, and 5x as many shots on target. We’ve clearly had many more decent chances. I don’t understand it. The xG concept is sound in principle, but it seems to be really badly calculated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
