Would've been if he just twatted it which I thought the plan would be.
No way was he getting it up and over though, maybe Walker changed his mind and thought he could do it
It was disappointing.

Didn’t Doku get booked for diving?Fucking embarrassing. Should have been booked just because the dive was so shit.
Chelsea : Nothing to see here
Not even close...don’t know what it is but I’m more gutted over yesterday’s result than the defeats to wolves and arsenal
Why worry about that nonsense. Ask yourself would you rather be in our shoes or theirs? They know full well who and what we are no matter how much bullshit they try to conjure up. Fuck 'em all...CADEDSo, City's penalty was "soft". It appears City only ever get "soft" penalties while I'm struggling to understand what constitutes a "soft" penalty after the penalty in the cup final and any number of penalties Mo Salah has been awarded "after feeling the contact and having the right to go down". Is a soft penalty, therefore, one awarded to City and only to City? Or can a penalty awarded to a red top ever be classed as "soft"?

Our last two aways have been at the two most expensively assembled teams in football issstreee, 2 billion pound Chelsea and 1.9 billion pound nitid, to rattle in 7 goals and be a Dias brain fart away from 6 points is quite an achievement for the moderately expensive, FFP compliant smallest squad in the league

Walker took one against Bournemouth too. He must be high up in the pecking order for free kicks.Would've been if he just twatted it which I thought the plan would be.

Either that or he’s ignored the pecking order, which Pep would probably go bonkers about.

Look at this way, at least Taylor saw it first. I often wonder if they have the television commentary in the VAR office going on. Scandulous if they're allowed to hear Spitty and Ratface screaming in the background. I actually think Taylor was mostly strong in what was a mental and frantic game in the rain.So, City's penalty was "soft".

Of course it was by one point. A game we perhaps should have won but could have lost. Was it a point gained or two lost. Well let's wait and see in May.Better than losing to wolves away
Same here. I was more pissed about that than the actual result.Still can’t believe anyone thought it was a good idea for Walker to take the last free kick.

That pecking order is pretty short if Kyle is taking free kicks.Walker took one against Bournemouth too. He must be high up in the pecking order for free kicks.

When you consider that was our worst defensive performance for years and still avoided defeat just shows the strength of our team overall , our midfield was also over ran at times but we stuck at it and only dropped points to an injury time penalty.
It becomes a concern if our defence is porous on a consistent basis , but i fully expect Pep to find a solution for the Dipper game , we will have more control and quite sure Klippetty's men will not be given the freedom of the park like chelsea enjoyed.We will be a different animal against the Dippers because the pre-match talk will all be about them and how they can beat us and take our title , no team talk required just the headlines on the back of the dressing room door will suffice

I've started to see this part of the season as Pep doing experiments to collect data for later in the season. Arsenal away? Too much control but not enough energy. Chelsea away? Not enough control, loads of attack going forward. A point gained and knowledge generated.When you consider that was our worst defensive performance for years and still avoided defeat just shows the strength of our team overall , our midfield was also over ran at times but we stuck at it and only dropped points to an injury time penalty.

Maybe so. We don’t see training though and he does score a long ranger every 5 years.That pecking order is pretty short if Kyle is taking free kicks.
I‘m surprised Rodri can’t take a decent free kick. He’s got a powerful and accurate shot.

I also thought Rodders was going to step up and have pop. I was surprised when Kyle took it.Maybe so. We don’t see training though and he does score a long ranger every 5 years.

Don’t be too harsh on yourself mate.Another thick moron who is allowed an opinion.
it’s my opinion, isn’t that the point of this site.This is simply not true and incredibly disingenuous. I'm not even the biggest Grealish fan either. Since returning from injury, he's been fantastic.
He’s the new FFS.Yeah, so so awful against the Rags, and Young Boys the other night (take it you haven’t watched every game this season, many of which he was injured for. Got MOTM on his final PL start before injury).
Doku offered very little yesterday but his fanboys can’t seem to get over it.
