Does anyone think that was a penalty?

It was a penalty. That was open corruption for everyone to see and honestly I don't care anymore.
Let happy clappy Khaldoon deal with it, his money and his problem to solve.

I'm sick of all this match fixing BS and I'm starting to hate the game I used to love.

Is the answer to the question - how could I make tonight interesting?

 

[Fiikso]

Doesn't really matter, it was so late in the game that VAR wouldn't have time to look at it before the whistle sounded.
You can't expect a penalty to be given after the game has ended.

Unless of course it a game with the Rags.

Ridiculous excuse. VAR is on the clock till the whistle is blown

It's not that they don’t want to pass to him. Opponents set up to prevent it. We could take more risks but that can cause problems on transition.

Haaland did get played through and didn't bit the target; he should have.

Said as much in the match thread. As soon as our midfield pick up the ball two or three defender converge on the angle between Halland and the player in possession. That's always the danger when you play with a target man. Leipzig would have worked on that all week.

Unless I'm mistaken he was played through once. Surely the expectation isn't that he will score with every shot, so there has to be some semblance of a plan to get him more chances. Unless he's completely ignoring Pep's instructions and playing off the last shoulder, part of that plan must be through balls when he's on the run. There will always be risk/reward - we've got an obscene, goal scoring machine upfront who is crying out for service

I think us constantly keeping possession is tiring our players out more than opposition as we manage often to do so without threatening the opponents goal.

Oh well good result. Often we’ve glided through this comp then got knocked out. Hopefully this season we will win it when below par like some other teams have.

Hope we've got an audio recording of var tonight too.

yep dodge will let us know next few days…

 

[Kadour75]

we were shite and slowwwww…

That does not deny the fact that we were robbed.

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

Switched it off what’s he said ?

Basically to get real. ‘You think we come here and win dove zero?’

 

[Stelea]

It was, he can be a little like that at times but even by his standards it was noticeably tetchy.

Obviously agitated. His team is slow, his striker can’t be found, each week players crying off with illness, hardly a bench, weak squad and inept officials plus the charges.
