Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [18th - 22nd January 2019]

Saying that draw didn’t matter is baffling, did Slippy G’s moment not make a difference either?

No it clearly made the difference as it resulted in us going behind on goal difference?

City won the remainder of their games so our results didn’t matter unless we won 13-0, it’s hardly rocket science
 
Dreadful performance so far.

Pass, pass, pass, pass, pass, pass, pass, pass, pass, lose ball, win back ball, pass, pass, pass, pass, pass, pass. How about shooting?

Keita again looks way off the pace and Milner's struggling at right back. Need to make changes at halftime because we're not scoring if this stays the same way :(
 
Because he stayed up and fell over way after, that contact didn’t cause him to fall although it was a foul and he dived awfully after it

So it's a penalty then. It's exactly why Salah and other players feel the need to "go down easily" because they aren't given those as pens.

Yes but City still had two games to play after that. Keeping pressure on could have gone either way. Drawing to Palace was the final nail in the coffin.

That's not a free kick anywhere else on the pitch, he's tried to reach his leg around him and nick the ball rather than kick him. It's a dive and not something I want to see given the accusations in previous games.

Whether he's tried to reach around or not he's kicked Salah. It is a dive but unless refs start punishing defenders properly it will continue to happen.

Watching again the contact is only slight. That doesn't go in Salahs favour tbf
 
VVD assists are iconic

Well no it wasn’t because we could still win it final day of the season if we are pretending city weren’t going to win and had pressure they couldn’t easily handle against bad teams
