Everton (a) post-match thread

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

Right....to clear it up for everyone.

If the ball touches the area of the arm with the shirt then it isn't handball, if it's skin then it's handball, if it is in-between then it's on the field decision.

VAR can't overrule that.

Long sleeves for rest of season then

Scrappy first 45 then dominated the second and should have been out of sight before the penalty incident, which although a definite pen fuck the silly Scouse cunts.
They deserved nothing.

Just seen it was Andy hinchcliffe on co-commnetary. Nice and neutral as usual.

I get it was frustrating and nerve-wracking but City had to play under that pressure and did. I was happy with our performance. City fans seem to be only happy with the team if they win 4-0

It wasn't even that nerve wracking: Everton never looked like scoring. City were relentless in the second half.

Hinchcliffe's chin is a fucking weapon.

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

Great win in a very tough game. Thought Everton played very well.

Why did Rodri stock his arm.out like that though, stupid to say the least there was no one near him.

He didn't move his arm towards the ball deliberately. The ball spun back on to it.

 

[Marvin]

Oh me too, but if that red/green zone image is true and the sleeve/arm thing comes into play and you have to say more of the ball has touched one or the other I can see why it goes with the on pitch decision. No "clear and obvious". Got away with one, though, I'd be fuming if I was an Everton fan.

It was close butit it hit his sleeve.

It's a bonkers rule isn't it.

I think we may need to play Jesus as a conventional striker for a few games. The false nine has served us well but teams seem to be figuring out how to defend against it. Mix up the tactics and keep the opposition guessing.

 

[Mr Fraser]

Carney and Richards think Everton deserved a draw.

Can anyone tell me A) what’s someone that played at her level doing commenting on the highest level and B) why Richards is so daft?

I wouldn't let either of them wash my socks. Micah is there for comedy value. Karen is there

 

[ancoats]

hahahaha sky going mental about the hand ball and everton was robbed and liverpool been cheated
then somebody puts up the video of the everton player offside hahahahahaha

 

[OB1]

Little girl Carney is a thick pile of mud, gosh if only Sky could find any decent pundits

She is awful.

 

[Jesus H Gabz]

The ref didn’t give offside for that he gave offside later on as the move progressed they never checked the offside so it’s irrelevant. They didn’t think it was handball

All I saw was the ref doing the ol’ drawing an imaginary line to initiate an offside call

 

[FantasyIreland]

Got away with that one,but its not like we aren't owed a bit of fortune/incompetence

 

[JGL07]

Because it wasn't.

Nothing like a penalty. The ball seemed to hit his shoulder. No handball!

 

[bavarian blue]

We have already spoilt the dipper weekend in London, hopefully Chelsea can seal it tomorrow

 

[BuryBlue1977]

The offside came after the handball.

No it didn’t

 

[eyalluvitt]

Rodriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

 

[hertsblue]

Awaits a brand new rule of some sort urgently coming in because of the no penalty call. Shirtless sleeves perhaps :)-
