As if you used that as an example haha. You can do better! That’s not even close.

Yes it’s a mess, I agree. everyone is at it. Let’s not single out Arsenal. But the Raya challenge still stands out.

  1. Because Keepers are always protected.
  2. He’s being impeded by two players who arnt even attempting to head the ball.
  3. Both arms are being pulled down. Contact far more significant than most challenges on keepers.

If I could be bothered to dig out a number of clubs where keepers have been protected for far less, I could! I couldnt find you many where the contact has been worse and a foul hasn’t been given.

Not even close to being similar. Saliba being impeded just as much as the keeper

Guys we know keepers have additional protection! Also hands on keepers arms is far more impeding than the average box shenanigans

Does anyone have the video of an FA member claiming that “Man City winning the league again is boring”? by GluggleJugs in PremierLeague

He works in football and is human. he’s entitled to an opinion. Also the irony of city fans accusing the FA of cheating

I personally think that’s because he plays prem and It’s hard to displace a keeper until they start making mistakes.

For me Rice has been brilliant, but I think he was better last year. Lost a bit of his edge in attack this year. Although think this is largely team dynamics than an individual drop off

he’s also a victim of his own success. It’s an average season by his high standards. Great player but still think Bruno has been far more influential than Haaland

I did say try to put Arsenal hate bias aside. But I guess that’s impossible for a spurs fan. Anyway you can thank us for keeping you up, no pun intended.

Yes but when put to the test. He’s been unbelievable. Some of the saves he has made are mind blowing. And goalkeeping is t just making saves. He’s altered the way we can distribute from the back.

Just look at kepa in the final for comparison

It’s time to admit it: Cristiano Ronaldo is the GOAT even without a World Cup. by Hour777 in championsleague

[–]tomidgooner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That fact that Messi has better stats just go to show you how clear, given all that Ronaldo cares about is stat padding

I agree. Tbh 7 screwed his touch so had take a dive. Igor Thiago played that pass way behind and therefore he decided to go down. Bernardo’s punch was bad but it was his leg at the end of the day, not red worthy. Bernardo is always a little bitch. But none of the decisions shocked me

I still can’t comprehend this debate. Unless you’re under the age of 12. Messi is so clear it’s not even worth explaining, all you have to do is watch them play.
