[Shamikebab]

Are we not doing phrasing any more?

 

[Irish_Tom]

To anyone who complains that Shelvey doesn't start every game — that's why!

 

[cm1179]

kanes been sub par today

 

[fez]

God its depressing when Mata leads a counter attack. Its like he is running in treacle.

Solanke goal disallowed, bounced up to his arm and then in, didnt look like he did it on purpose to me

 

[Purdy]

Disagree with commentator, that isn’t a goal

 

[Robbo]

Bournemouth have played very well, far from over yet...

Nah scoring any goal with your arm should be disallowed I think

 

[omnomnom]

If that was the rule then sure but i dont believe it is?

No idea tbh, ball doesn’t go in if it doesn’t hit his arm though so feels wrong

 

[cm1179]

kane off the post

 

[fez]

Pretty sure you aren't allowed to score with your arm, intentional or not.

 

[cm1179]

SON 2-0

great header

Intention isn’t the only thing considered for a handball anyway, would be interesting though to see what’s true

 

[fez]

Hernandez has just missed a must score chance against Arsenal

 

[explicit4u]

Hernandez off the crossbar! Jesus christ we really want to lose this game.

Was wondering what the view point would be in there, seems sensible enough for me. People are getting into the whole intentional handball to punish and give a penalty with this. You don't need to punish the player for a non intentional handball and you in most cases shouldn't punish the team by giving a penalty/etc for an unintentional handball. But this is a case of rewarding an unintentional handball with a goal that without the handball isn't being scored.

Rule need clarification, it was never ever acceptable to score with your hand and it makes no sense for it to ever be okay. If it was intentional handball he should get a card for doing it but because it's unintentional he doesn't get carded, he just doesn't get the goal.

 

[Purdy]

What a small small team wba are to be doing that, goodness me

 

[McBain]

Haven't watched the game but sounds like Bournemouth unlucky not to be getting something out of the game?
