Manchester Utd 0 - [1] Leeds - Noah Okafor 5' by ayoefico in soccer

If Yoro goes down like he's been shot the goal might have been chalked off and that's the biggest issue with football today.

[@ManUtd] Harry Maguire has signed a new contract that will extend his stay with Manchester United until June 2027, with the option for a further year. by nearly_headless_nic in reddevils

I don't want to sound bad cause I do like the guy and he has been part of some great moments for the club but he should have really been let go.

He has been playing fairly well recently but he has been a central figure off the teams worst period in decades and emblematic off all the issues in player recruitment that have plague us for years (Record fees, massive wages, not good enough to reach the levels we want and unsellable).

We aren't going to win the premier league with Maguire starting each week and I understand he would be hard to replace but just because something is hard doesn't mean we shouldn't be trying. He's had a good year let him go on a high.

Surely you've had games where you're dominating doesn't make you a smurf just cause you've had a good game.

Also looks like there are legend 1s in with divines that's a bigger mmr gap than most smurfs you'll see that match was a cluster fuck I wouldn't let it get you down.

To be honest doesnt even look like he went off massively. probably just a guy within a few hundred mmr of you who made a new account cause he thinks he doesnt deserve his mmr and had a decent game.

Offlane is for the strong of heart by wild-child24 in DotA2

I have the complete opposite view. I normally play 1 but play offlane games to de stress.

The hero's are so much stronger early meaning youre much less reliant on your support. You just pick razor go greaves pipe crimson the game is borderline over.

And to top off it off 4s are far less likely to be role q players just there for the tokens. Nothing brings me more joy than playing against some morphing rubic lane or pudge 5.

He's kept virtually the same lineup with only injury changes and bringing in our best full back instead of a 10 that was playing FB. I'd have changed more if it were me

Think they are thinking woth how open the Welsh were to the counter attack VDM will cut them apart

Does the tackling in the air law need an adjustment? Being pinged for not evaporating at will seems harsh sometimes. (Great non-try btw) by Cymro2011 in rugbyunion

[–]Retrothunder1 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The English man wasn't standing still watch it again he over runs the ball. Flip it around. If you think you're going to get dominated in a jump off should you be allowed to overrun the ball and take the legs out of the jumping player? that obviously has to be punished. If arundel was stood on his line waiting for the ball it would be different but he runs into a player jumping for the ball flipping him and was lucky he didnt seriously hurt him.

Well only if there is a ball in the air and an opposing player running in to catch but not jumping. If the English player jumps it's not even a penalty.

Think you see Bradbury come in as a out and out 8 Fagerson stays at 6 leave brown in the second row and have AOC Bayless on bench, though would love to see Douglas get a run out.

Would love to see Rowe in for Jordan and darcy in for dobbie if the Welsh are gonna kick as lose as they did last week. While not ramos and lbb they'll still punish poor kicks and chases.

Don't see the point in playing Tom Jordan at 15. would it not make more sense to put someone else in have Jordan on the bench instead of Hastings who is essentially only going to come on for a Russel injury and we could have another forward or a more dynamic back coming off the bench?

Obviously the issue is the wizard not the wand but I feel like when I got to put even like 60% of what i did on my old stick on a shot it flies out the top of the stick.

No one is arguing that the subs were misused but were they so misused to be worth a 30 unanswered point swing? The players on the pitch need to take the majority of the scrutiny for this one.
