Greenlizard0 PL & Championship Football Thread ** spoilers ** [10th - 13th December 2021]

Bamford, Phillips and Cooper all have hamstring injuries, you couldn't make it up. Philips out for months. I guess in theory their injuries are best served now in games we have no chance of winning. We're going to get annihilated in all of them, lose even more confidence and relegation looms as we won't buy players.

Merry Xmas :)
 
Not a good start for Brentford. Our injuries are such that the 11 we're fielding today is quite a bit worse than the average side we put out in the Championship last season.

Missing Toney, Raya, Dasilva, Ajer, etc.

A tough watch.
 
Coutinho got a second yellow for blocking one like that before iirc.

Seems fair, certainly the second yellow is entirely on Jimenez and justified, clown behaviour

Which might tell you how often it happens....

I think it was when we got battered by Spurs a few seasons ago people crucified the player in front of the free kick for not blocking it when Spurs took it quickly. I can't remember the last game I watched where a player doesn't stand a few ft in front of the ball to block the free kick until the team are set up for it.

If they want to punish it then sure, go for it but do it for everyone.

I can't recall many players being a stupid as Coutinho or Jimenez to do it on a yellow card already lol, first yellows for it I'd imagine is frequent enough?
