RedArmy Posted November 29 Share Posted November 29 If any keeper is getting affected by a ball fizzing across behind a player then they might as well hang up the gloves. Even Bazunu isn’t that bad. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarnia Cherie Posted November 29 Share Posted November 29 2 minutes ago, Harry_SFC said: Thought we were good second half. We just need to get the ball to Fernandes and Dibling as quickly as we can. Sack off the tippy tappy crap and pass to your best players as much as possible. Brighton had a poor second half so perhaps that's why we looked better. I agree with the tippy tappy rubbish.

Lighthouse Posted November 29 Share Posted November 29 3 minutes ago, Jimmy_D said: Reading it like that means that there’s no point in even having the ‘not interfering’ clause. Every single goal with a non-interfering player offside the keeper can claim they’ve been affected by that player. Obviously that’s not the case, if Armstrong had been offside by the corner flag or even just a couple of yards the other side of Archer, the goal would have stood. I reiterate; if that goal is given against us, every man and dog on this forum is screaming, "how the f**k is he NOT interfering!" 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWLondon Saint Posted November 29 Share Posted November 29 I was actually expecting the goal to be disallowed as I did see AA try to play it as he flew across and I was just wondering how someone who thinks they're a PL striker can manage to get ahead of the ball even before it's played. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Who? Posted November 29 Share Posted November 29 3 minutes ago, Lord Duckhunter said: This is the point a lot seem to be missing. Without VAR, it would have been offside as that was the on field decision. The issue for me is the length of time. Ridiculous. The Lino must have flagged for AA (because if he hadn’t the ref would have been sent to monitor if VAR deemed interference), so therefore that was the only check required. If they think it’s not interfering then they need to draw the lines to check Archer. They did it arse about face, with the irrelevant decision taking the time. you are missing the point fella. But checking is why we have VAR. it was never offside. They just cannot seem to get it right. Championship you are correct we would have sucked it up old style and moaned when we saw it later. But checking and still disallowing it, what’s the point? 🤷🏽 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sadoldgit Posted November 29 Share Posted November 29 Such a strange game. Played off the park in the first half but could have gone in level. How Downes didn’t get sent off I don’t know. So much better in the second half. I guess technically the goal was off side as Armstrong made an attempt to play the ball, but we had one of those against us allowed. I wonder what side we are going to field against Chelsea with so many players out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWLondon Saint Posted November 29 Share Posted November 29 Also, while Sugawara was definitely at fault for their goal, I am pretty sure Martin was saying 'bounce' on camera and for the first time I agree with him, how is it with 3 centre backs there is no-one heading that off the penalty spot? If there's not one of them free standing right there waiting for it then something has gone seriously wrong even before Suga decided to have his 40 winks. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWLondon Saint Posted November 29 Share Posted November 29 Oh, and on the positive - Fernandes and Dibling are definitely £50 million+ players. They both have the odd rash mistake of youth in them but bloody hell they can play. Dibling made 'both' our goals and some of Fernandes' takes/turns + passing was as good as anyone I've seen in a Saints shirt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Duckhunter Posted November 29 Share Posted November 29 I don’t often agree with Lego, but he’s 100% right about this decision. The obsession with the on field decision is hampering the usefulness of VAR. the VAR doesn’t decide whether AA affected the Brighton players, just whether it was clear and obvious that he didn’t. You end up with the on field officials making an error, with VAR backing up that error on the basis that it wasn’t too bad an error.

I mean the first half was the same shit we've seen all season, which he dared to defend. The guy needs to be real, had Brighton been on form they'd have been out of sight like fucking Bournemouth were against us. But the second half was much much better and he's spot on about VAR. I'm actually more pissed off about VAR than the tactics ... a unique feeling. Edited November 29 by Patrick Bateman 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
