Football just seems soft to me these days. If that was against us I wouldn't want or expect a red. It's clumsy, but to send him off. Really harsh in my opinion.

It's the studs on the calf while nowhere near the ball that does it, though, isnt it? Just doesn't look good.

Good counter, shame Spence couldnt connect

 

[Mrs Vert]

We cant score with 11 players. Good luck with 10.
They are so bad.....and yet again we still cant make use of it

My issue is with the on field review. It’s for anything that isn’t clear, but once referred onfield, that’s it. Decision made. When VAR is supposed to help with clear and obvious mistakes. A yellow wasn’t a mistake. It was an ‘orange’ card. Yellow was the onfield decision and essentially okay.

What was the other game where we had another on field injustice?

I agree with that.
The administration of VAR is a joke and has made me go off football

 

[Baleforce]

fudging hell

Porro slow to get to it, then awful effort from Spence

 

[Jurgen the German]

Gordon did the exact same thing to Van Dijk and didn't get sent off! It was EXACTLY the same!!

Gordon did get sent off for that tackle

 

[Bullet]

By the way, don't get remotely excited, we will definitely lose.
Whether a long ranger, or an o.g., or a stupid slip, a penalty, a 97th minute header, we will find a way.


Spence mate, how can you miss that entirely?

 

[Baleforce]

fudging hell Bergvall, weak

 

[DubSpur]

Great break and pass from Kudus

 

[Daisuk]

Simons will come good btw, you can't really expect a young 10 in a new country and league to hit the ground running in a team that can barely perform.

 

[paxtonwolf]

What a pass to Bergvall

 

[Rorschach]

Super pass by Romero

putting one on that clam is the best thing he's done so far

 

[Bishop]

Bergvall telegraphed his pass way to much, made it too easy to cut out.

 

[monkeybarry]

Genuinely think it was just clumsy, I can't see that he really thought he should try and take the studs but I guess we'll know what's going on in his head.

I agree with that. Which is worse than malicious - it's irresponsible and disrespectful to teammates and fans. And even moreso considering the current situation.
He clearly has a weak mentality. If he was on loan, I'd want him sent back. Looks like we're stuck with another Ndombele

 

[DubSpur]

Lucas has to do better with the cross there. Some good chances to catch them on the break

 

[paxtonwolf]

Not sure why we are booing Van Djck, wasnt his fault, boo VAR

 

[paxtonwolf]

I bet thats reviewed if its Liverpool fouled

 

[Baleforce]

thats a pen all day

based on other decisions in this game

 

[Benny_Lad]

No where what we paid right now

That’s what happens when you have a pathetic transfer team/strategy. You end up with a panic last minute signing at above the odds.
