Match Thread | Newcastle vs Man City (14/05/21)

Very familiar score line for us who are old enough -1968 /2021

VAR dissmissed our claims but the Ake one looked more clearer,

The handball was as clear as yer'd want. How VAR can dismiss that and not give the pen just tells us that what we see isn't what VAR is deliberating. It stinks.

Trip your own player - get a free kick ffs.


Didn’t he famously remember he was a Leicester City fan a few years ago - after refereeing them several times in that season.

Why do commentators have to shout. A calm summary at the end of the game with considered comments would make a refreshing change.

I remember the days when I could keep it solid for 3 1/2 minutes...

Does Mrs Blue Moon remember that...;)

Ake has to stay on his feet there.

Defenders should not be going to ground in the area if it can be avoided. The way refs and VAR interpret the LotG is suicidal.

 

[Tb1981]

Ake is having an absolute mare. Didn't think it was a pen at first.

He's too slow and positionally all over the shop.

As for Sterling, anybody can legislate for tiredness and even poor form, but some of his decision making is something I would not even expect from a League Two player.

Think sterling and Jesus can go into first 11 and look ok
Some of the others.....ake, Garcia, Mendy oh my god!
Thank god the 14 we left out are so good!!
