Disagree completely. No intent. Just as it hits an arm it shouldn't automatically be a penalty imo. As every pro has just said on the TV. Should never be given for anyone. Even Pep is frustrated with the current law.

Same as the pen against Sterling for spuds and Micah at anfield should never have been given. Embarrassment for the game these type of decisions….

Is it a penalty? Yes.

Should it be a penalty? Probably not.

Blame those who have fucked up the rules.

Grealish handball penalty against the rags is still the worst I've seen.

On a sad note we seriously have to find a John Stones replacement, his injuries are getting more frequent and he's out for longer everytime. Sorry @Eccles Blue

Hopefully it is not a bad injury for Stones.

This not flagging for offside straight away rule cost us the jonboy injury tonight it's a stupid rule change that makes no sense. CTID

Had to go out so watched it 60 minutes behind. It was always gonna be a tough game, and going behind made it even harder.

But the performance in the second half was absolutely brilliant.

That was a champions performance. The best team wins the league.

And we’re the best team in the world.

What a turn around

Given how the lads have performed recently I didn't think we'd have it in us, we've had this and our heads have dropped this season

But fair play, absolutely unreal

That's why no one counts us out!

Fantastic, hope we get more performances like the 2nd half today

Is it me or does Pickford try to give the impression that every save he makes is world class by diving extravagantly.

He’s nearly as bad as Grobbelaar.

I have a feeling he’ll be back very soon. ;-)

It's a position that was commonly used by pre WWII football teams.

or 90% of the premier league except us

Well it shouldnt be immaterial that's the whole point and the crux of the issue created by IFAB/PGMOL. The law as it is, is an arse, created by people who have limited understanding of the game. Its a shit show!! As every ex pro and both managers have all agreed on.

But you stay in the PGMOL camp if it makes you feel better!!

So if that was on the line and hit his arm and went clear, you dont think its a penalty?

 

[Phoenix900000]

To all the Everton fans that were crying and moaning about them being punished and wanting us to be dropped down to the lower divisions

Might I say (and I know I've been swearing a bit) kiss my arse hahahahahaha

Now bow down to the World Champions
