He was making the sub before they scored.

I mean before they scored it was still damage limitation. 10 men chasing the ball for 50 minutes you'll see errors creep in and city punish them.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

That's a bad challenge from Dendoncker.

 

[PuntsWolf]

No point running Traore into the ground. Just get out of here with the 1-0

The error was by the ref!

Pretty astonishing that we're still in a position to steal something here. Also somewhat encouraging that when we do get possession we're still trying to play our football rather than just hoofing it randomly.

RAN has been magnificent. Most have this half. That's something, in a very thankless situation.

I do understand that, but i don;t get why he wants to make the sub before they score.

And definitely was just braindead taking him off last week.

Rodri should get booked for that.

Sa has played well.

 

[Alan]

And for all his empty-head moments, Sa is an immaculate shot stopper (or has been since Brentford).

 

[WsWolf]

John moss is a fat useless cunt.

 

[Wilf Wolf]

If Rodri is not on a yellow he gets one.

 

[prawnking]

The back 3 in the last 2 games have been immense, plus RAN.

True. Pity about the rest of the team and our forward play over the past few games...

 

[Wilf Wolf]

John moss is a fat useless cunt.

That is the verdict thread sorted.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

If Rodri is not on a yellow he gets one.

Which could have been the case for Raul too.

 

[The Bear]

Have to say I've barely watched the game since the goal.

Why bother when the league is this bent?

 

[Dire Wolf]

Think you can pretty much substitute every PL referee's name in there to be fair.

He wasn’t doing anything. He wanted the 0-0. Hwang will run round.a lot and at least does have pace albeit not as much.

Rodri just stood there knowing he couldn’t touch him. Not a yellow.

Sa has been good bar being absolutely dog shit on pens and going walkabouts for the Coady off the line. Really like him though.

 

[WsWolf]

I don't think for a second it was an error. He knew exactly what he was doing.

 

[Alan]

In general Moss has been alright in the second half (didn't see the first so can't comment, specifically still haven't seen Raul's cards).

Marriner deserves the entirety of the vitriol here. Well, him and whoever it is the set up the Prem's VAR structure.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

I think the idea that Lage was thinking about damage limitation when taking off Adama, has been blasted away by him now bringing on Podence and Trincao.

 

[Throbber3]

I was going to post something very similar. The league does appear very skewed for the big boys

 

[prawnking]

I know we're down to ten men, but we really haven't got a clue how to fashion a chance, let alone get in a position to score
