Chelsea 3-1 Saints - Match Thread

[LeBizzier69]

Tuchel has a really slappable face. 

[Mr X]

Armstrong misses the ball 

[Chez]

Livramento enjoying that space in front of him. 

[badgerx16]

Can anybody remember when Redmond last actually tried to take on an opponent ?

[OttawaSaint]

Wow, what a save by McCarthy!

[Chez]

what. a. save.

[Saints foreva]

What a fucking save

So not the 11 who are on now then?

Great mind!

[Chez]

Forster never makes that save. Ever.

[HarvSFC]

McCarthy’s having a great game.

Elyounoussi's goal against Newcastle I think came from Redmond's direct running this season.

He has tried the odd time here and there today tbf, the problem is I don't think he is actually that fast

He's a good shot stopper despite what the boo boys on here say.

Think it was one of those feel good training videos when him and Boufal were trying volleys against our keepers...

With Romeu at the back ???

we would have had some reaction on here

[Chapel End]

Brilliant save Macca

[OttawaSaint]

They’re going to give JWP a red card here....

[Saints foreva]

This is going to be a red card isn't it 

[Mr X]

FFS jwp 

[OttawaSaint]

That’ll end his consecutive appearances record.

This is red.

[Saint86]

Thats a borderline red all day long. might get away with it because he didn't leave much on him.

Edited 2 October, 2021 by Saint86

[obelisk]

If that's a red it'd be harsh.

[Mr X]

He's off 

[benjii]

This is never a red. It's one foot, it's low and the contact is low and is only made by the end of his foot.

That's a joke.

Back to VAR getting involved over nothing.

[AlexLaw76]

What the hell?

[Chez]

thew wrong angle here and he's fucked. Not sure he touches him though.

[DT]

Mike Dean. Every time. 

[John Boy Saint]

Mike Dean must be knocking one out at that decision - jeez

[nta786]

Come on... that is not a red card I'm sorry the studs didn't even go into his ankle completely, and he wasn't exactly completely out of control in my opinion...

But it's been given as a red card fuck sake

[HarvSFC]

Of course they have to put the momentum back with Chelsea, the match was too even.

[OttawaSaint]

That’s not fair. Notice the freeze frame they showed him straight away. JWP with foot on the Chelsea foot. Biasing him straight away,

Didn’t look that bad at all.

he does. nasty tackle.

[Chapel End]

Dean has to make up for the ruled out goal doesnt he

[Chapel End]

Joke

[Disco Stu]

Why do they only show him the one angle? It was a clear yellow. No consistency.

Edited 2 October, 2021 by Disco Stu

[Baird of the land]

I think that's a bizarre red card. He's not off the ground.

[trousers]

I've always hated VAR

[SaintBobby]

Appeal that?

[Saint86]

Its a red jesus. Very nearly an absolute shocker.

Edited 2 October, 2021 by Saint86

[OttawaSaint]

VAR conning the ref. In real time there’s nothing in it but they show a freeze frame and super slow mo.

[Mr X]

Not sure it was a dangerous tackle as low definite yellow not sure it warranted red 

[nta786]

So all because Mendy played a risky pass... we got fucked over...

Bollocks. 

It was a yellow, no more.

Edited 2 October, 2021 by nta786

[DT]

Mike Dean has just put the phone down from Abramovich. Da. It is done. 

[obelisk]

If you have to take that long for a decision it's borderline. Harsh.

[Sheaf Saint]

Oh surprise surprise.

It was late, granted. But seriously? Was it really worth a red?

[Chez]

CM depth we are questioned now comes into focus.

Sums up JWP's day. Horrendous challenge.

Chuck a blue shirt on him and it's a yellow.
