Match Thread | Brighton vs. Man City (24/05/23)

No. He didn't pull Haaland. He gheld him to know where he was. Haaland pulled him to get an advantage. There is a difference. Let's stop pretending we can't tell.

He held him to know where he was? That's a foul, therefore a penalty. Players should use their eyes to identify where opponents are, not their hands.

Stones on the pitch shaking hands at the end so it doesn't look like the desperados' nightmare scenario on here is wide of the mark.

If so we're worried that we can't cope with a player or two, we're fucked anyway.

We can cope and have, but you want your best players for the important games.

My Team of the Season Brighton, fantastic side.

I work with two of their supporters, they are going to be even more unbearable than normal tomorrow and are always in the office whenever I am not working from home.

Full reserves against a more physical Brentford please.

But what you do do is set aq precedent about what is and what isnt allowed if Bernardo's wasnt a pull back than neither was Erlings the ref has to be consistent

Bernardo was a pullback. He just missed it. Should have been a free kick. Haaland pull also is a free kick.

One was missed. No excuse to miss the other. Make up calls are dumb. You miss one. It's gone. Ref can't check that. But when a goal is scored. You can check.

Mind you he gave the goal and only rescinded on the check. Which is a rule.

Even so

Bit ott ... seeing as his sign up date was 2023 some of rhe Johnny come latelys seem to forget the darker days ...

We rested him for an hour vs Chelsea. We still need to go strong vs Brighton with the form they are in.

No we didn't, we have won the league, all that matters now is the two finals.

Celebrating this like they won the league..... Really don't know what to think.

Getting into Europa league is like winning the league for them - let them have it. They've had a great season and deserve to celebrate.
