Holding of Haaland

[give it to gordon]

Surely anywhere else on the pitch it would be blown as a foul …

If Haaland was through on goal at spotty face did that as last defender, it's a red card and free kick. Do it in the penalty area and nothing to see

 

[give it to gordon]

How can the ref miss this ?
How can the linesman miss this ?
How can VAR miss this ?
Spotty isn't even looking where the ball is

Not just once but at ever corner ?





Ignore the twat talking

When they highlighted the holding by spotty. Nev nevs spawn knew it was a pen and shut his mouth straight away. Clear pen. Later in the game slab head was blatantly pushing away at Haaland but again nothing. It’s almost like they think he’s that good that he should be able to deal with it. I do think he’s soft as shite though. Maybe needs to give it back and take a couple reds just to establish himself. Ibrahimavitch is would have picked slabhead up and chopped him.

Spotty gave away the penalty at the swamp on Rodri last season for doing similar.
Either he doesn't want to learn or he's been given the nod that he won't ever be punished again for it.

Its one of the reasons we take short corners, normal corners are too easy to get away with rugby tackling.

Funny how these 'tough' tackling' additions seemed to be ignored when Haarland 'n Walker shouldered a couple of Rags. Funny again, that when it's fifty fifty contact with shoulders both our attacker 'n defender are the culprits.

When the Rag fan Taylor is the ref 50-50’s going to the Rags is totally normal.

Could see the holding and pulling in the first half from SS3, even though it’s 100 yards away. Odd that Taylor couldn’t see it from 10 yards?

Hojlund literally hit a double leg takedown on him in the box. Fuckall. Maguire stiff arm pushed him with both arms directly in the chest as a cross came in. Fuckall. Next time it happens I hope he writhes around holding his face like an Arsenal player until the VAR does its fucking job.

 

[Zenmanc]

Think making a little more of it is warranted- but hopefully not to the level of falling to the turf as if shot by a sniper which appears to be endorsed by our captain these days.

Completely agree with everything already mentioned here already but how did the midget manage to wrestle Haaland to the floor?
