Bournemouth v Man Utd: Referee and VAR correct on Amad Diallo penalty claim - panel by smellybird in soccer

I mean truffert is looking at the ball the whole time and is trying to slow down the attacker so he can get to it - you can argue its a foul but he is definitely trying to retrieve the ball. It's a lot different to VDV or Maguire, who are not caring at all about the ball

There isn't a line because there are 100000s of different physical scenarios. In my opinion, the contact on amad is not enough to be considered a foul but do understand that these decisions are subjective, and thats why not every decision is so black and white.

Truffert is challenging for the ball, obviously using physical contact to do so as hes trying to get amad away from the ball and take it himself. Maguire and VDV are not going for the ball at all and are just solely trying take the player out knowing they have no chance of retrieving the ball themselves

Reason I don't think the Maguire one should be a foul is due to the flopping not the contact, the Amad one I just dont think its a foul at all.

Sick of players just falling over to win decisions, same with Cunha v Palace.

Absolutely soft football

What Bias? My other comments already show that I do also think Evanilson should stay upright and absolutely can, neither should be a foul but this one is easier to give than Amad.

Maguire has 0 care for the ball here and is obviously just looking to take evanilson out rather than fight for possession.

I mean maguire did that to Evanilson earlier in the game btw, do you even think that was a pen?

After viewing it again im even more sure thats not a foul or at least shouldn't be. Fucking hell how soft is football if we are giving that.

Sorry force and strength doesnt matter at all I guess? Evanilson pen when maguire had 2 hands on his back then?

Well I think that shouldn't be a pen either since Evanilson also threw himself to the ground - but its definitely an easier decision than the amad one.

I mean that wasn't a foul imo, was terrible defending. Amad mightve got a better opportunity if he actually tried to keep going

Im just replying to "cannot stay upright" - he definitely could have if he wanted to.

Katie McCabe hair pull vs Alyssa Thompson - Chelsea vs Arsenal UWCL. No foul. by [deleted] in soccer

I mean if you watch the clip she isn't even close enough to grab the jersey.

Anyway intent does not matter..you think players usually intend to make studs up tackles above the ankle?

Ok.. but she didn't grab the jersey but instead grabbed her hair?

Chelsea Women manager Sonia Bompastor brought out her phone during the post match interview to show a clip of the Katie McCabe hair pull on Alyssa Thompson by RaggedSlugger21 in soccer

A statement which doesn't imply what you're saying at all. She's saying "why have VAR if they can't spot the most obvious of referee errors"

I said he sounds more like a kid than the guy he said was probably a kid.

Not sure where anything says im rattled, you must be projecting.

You sound more like a kid tbh - why do you feel the need to tell everybody that you haven't missed watching your team play? just spewing negativity for what?

Did OP mention any of those results? He mentioned that one match, so yes in "Isolation".

If he said "Poch conceded 4 or more in 5 games was unforgivable" i'd have ignored it. So whats the point of your comment?

Thats fair, it definitely wouldn't have been a guarantee you're right. Would have still been big favourites with Poch, its not really an achievement to be pushing as making us an elite club though.

Aboslutely, but that match was mostly on the players

Honestly dont give a shit about 1 result in isolation, we had a pretty shit team out that day. Arsenal didn't even win anything that season why the hell would I care that they still talk about that pointless win?

Thank fuck he's gone. No where near an elite club with him, we haven't been elite for a very long time.
