[svennis pennis]

Phil is our best player for the second home game in a row.

Chapman on 5 live crying his eyes out that it’s been given hahaha

Fuck that **** and the rest of the rag wankers.

 

[Silva&Silva]

Wasn't Akanji in offsidd position? He wouldn't touch that anyway? Don't even know what rules are in play but controversial definitely

Who cares, we're 2-1 up.

no worse than McBurnie last Sunday...he was right in front of Ederson..Akanji was 5 yards away

 

[Don Karleone]

If Akanji isn't standing there, the goalkeeper dives early without the pause and reaches the ball. It was hardly a power header.

I dunno, there was definitely some power on that

 

[Beanhead]

For me that shouldn’t have stood.. the presence of an offside Akanji influenced their keepers reactions imo.

Will gladly take it but I would have been steaming if it was given against us.

Oliver clueless. Every time we win the ball a Fulham player dies and Oliver gives a free kick. He then let every Fulham player berate him like fuck for about 4 mins. If he is the best ref in the country that says it all

What intervention? Keeper saw it all the way and Akanji didn't touch it

The keeper's having to compensate for a ball being hit directly towards a player in an offside (i.e. illegal) position.

Whether he actually touches it or not shouldn't be the point.

Nothing to see here!

Akanji definitely interfering, but not as much as Lord Fishfinger last season so fuck it
