Greenlizard0 PL & Championship Football Thread ** spoilers ** [4th - 6th July 2020]

Just need Crystal Palace to do us a favour and we will be very close to Leicester. Watford winning later would be nice too.
 
VAR needs to do one. I don’t care if things go against us in future if VAR isn’t there to correct it. It just kills celebrations and the flow and is just not even applied correctly.

De Gea I think is just a confidence thing.

It's been 2 years now. At what point do you stop putting down to a blip or a confidence thing?

Don't they also commit tactical fouls to prevent counter attacks?

Yes. I'm not sure what that has to do with my earlier post though. I was replying to Shami's post about the controversy around the amount of pens Utd have been given this season.

Top of the fairplay league I think you'll find. Dirty Arsenal are bottom of it.

My point was that refereeing is not just in favour of Utd. If that's the point you were making. Surely all the pens are VAR reviewed anyway. Unlike the tactical fouls.

I'm not sure if Ciy are getting away with a disproportionate number of fouls. Utd are certainly receiving a disproportionaite number of penalties compared to other sides though. As for VAR, it depends on what the onfield decision was. I mentioned the penalty appeal Liverpool had vs Palace the other week, it was a very similar handball to the one Utd got today - the onfield decision was no penalty and VAR will only overturn if it's a massive mistake. That said, Utd have had the most subjective overturns by VAR too, including getting a pen vs Norwich that the PGMOL later admitted was the wrong decision.

You shouldn't complain. It's the only table you'll find where Arsenal have nearly 3 times as many points as Liverpool.

Leave the Arsenal fans alone Baz. You can wind them up again when they sign the next Ronaldo or get another amazing manager in.
 
Thoroughly enjoyable game, save for a bit of dodgy defending on Maguire's part.

Everyone played exceptionally well in midfield and attack, some great goals too. :cool:
