GWT: EPL - Matchweek 26 (ft. MW 29)

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Not much market for these players.


UGARTE!!!!!

There absolutely is….a lot of these players can be useful on other teams. The fees have to be lower. We did this song and dance with rashford… he ended up leaving united

 

[hatterson]

They should hand out retroactive red cards for yelling about a handball like that.

He's on a loan, with an option, not obligation, to buy and supposedly has no intention of staying at Villa.

He left for now. He isn’t playing for united. You find another loan… these players aren’t gonna all finish their contracts.

But I know your MO.

 

[hatterson]

I mean that's 10000% a dive, but VAR is never overturning it.

I'm saying the market Rashford thinks there is for him, might not exist. Remeber, he wants Barcelona.

 

[hatterson]

Wow. Shocking VAR is actually doing its job.

Looks embellishment….

Onana shows his stuff tho.

Both grabbed he fell like he got shot but it could’ve been called.

 

[gary69]

Man Utd saved.

 

[Venkman]

Correct call. What a flop.

 

[Jussi]

Clear dive.

 

[hatterson]

The ref has, rightly, let several of those go in the box already so it's fair it wasn't given.

Ref has overall been really, really poor today. Missed multiple obvious fouls against both teams and there's several yellows that were extremely obvious to give that he just chose not to.

Like the Maguire challenge on the half way line that was the most obvious stopping a counter yellow in history and he just gave a regular foul.

The same idiot as in the FA Cup game vs Arsenal.

Ally McCoist on TNT Sports really wanted a penalty from that.

 

[hatterson]

TBH, I feel bad for Zirkzee. He seems like an alright guy, but is clearly in way, way over his ability level and gets a lot of hate for it.

To be fair, he seems to do better against less physical teams, like in the EL. If he can work on it in the summer, we'll see if he can learn to adjust to it.

 

[Jussi]

Correct call. What a flop.

Funny how some "neutral" fans have suddenly forgot about their own whining about Birdshit's diving while at United. I still remember the posts when he won a dive with clear dive for United.

 

[Jussi]

Also, Bruno is absolutely un-sellable in this team.

Rio's reaction on TNT Sports after Ugarte's goal.

 

[bluesfan94]

It should have been a penalty AND a yellow card for simulation. United lucky the ref indicated it was for the foul by Maguire and not the foul by De Ligt.

I watched United the other day and boy was he lost. Every touch he made was off. His movement was awful too.

 

[AlanHUK]

Wow. Shocking VAR is actually doing its job.

Not even close to doing it's job, didn't show the ref the behind the goal angle and only gave wide angles which wouldn't show the shirt pulling.

Rule book doesn't allow for that.

Ref made it clear earlier in the game when Maguire's shirt was pulled and nothing was called, that he wasn't calling those.

Rio casually threw Birdshit under the bus by saying he he's played with Young and knows he tends to embellish contacts.

Except the referee did call it, then VAR didn't give him the opportunity to confirm his on field decision because it only showed the referee wide angles so he couldn't confirm the shirt pulling.

VAR failed on multiple points with the decision, the first failure was referring it to the monitor in the first place, the second one was only showing the referee a wide angle to hide the shirt pulling.

 

[KJS14]

Just catching up on the drama in this thread from earlier in the week, reading about how Saka being out doesn't even matter while I sip on my coffee and fawn over Arsenal's front three of Trossard - Merino - Nwaneri

That holding was nothing you don't see in every match in the PL and not get called. Birdshit's dive was a very late reaction to everything as well.
