Turning his back as he went in for it wasn’t great, and a tackle like that in the PL will not go unpunished. Especially given the hypocritical overreaction of the Leeds players. I think he was going for one of his 360° turns, something he pulls out several times a season, which is why he turned as he did. Obviously didn't quite land it but he wasn't miles off and he wasn't diving in or out of control. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well VAR has given Manchester United a penalty for McGinn’s challenge on the Leeds player. How do you think it goes man! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMelvillan Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 It kinda reminded me of when Gabby crunched that wee one direction fella in the exhibition match at celtic park. Think he made him cry. The wee Leeds fella probably shouldn't have been out there in the first place as he looked a bit reckless and a completely different shape and size as the proper grown ups. Footballers are conditioned nowadays to be solid as rocks - even smaller guys are just more robust from years on the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ball won but caught the player very low down afterwards. Yellow at most. No 'dress up' there. That's actually dressing up a "dress up". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't two foot someone and have their ankle hanging by a thread and have the ref screaming at the crippled player "1997! Someone for your club two footed someone. Play on!!!"

Was a clear 50/50 and Leeds fans saying he did it intentionally due to an earlier tackle by the kid on Buendia - McGinn was staring at the ball, would've had no idea who was coming. Wasn't studs up, wasn't even a sliding tackle, just a 50/50 that's gone awry, real shame for the kid and hope he isn't out too long, but the challenge by McGinn was fine imo Archie Gray was putting it about himself, and he got a yellow, for an earlier challenge .....If you are old enough to dish it out, you are old enough to receive it. They are just playing on his age to gain the advantage. It just looked an unfortunate tackle to me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lapal_fan Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 He's gone in hard, but without intent to injure. It's one of those split second things of "if I don't go in hard, I'm going to come off worse here". It's exactly the same as that time I saw that old lady crossing the street whilst I was driving. I didn't have to put my foot down, but you don't want to come off worse in a 50/50. Needless to say, Car 1, little old lady with trolley NIL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are just playing on his age to gain the advantage. It just looked an unfortunate tackle to me. My site manger is a Leeds fan, he's just been in the office, so I brought the game up (smugly ) - His three comments were that it was a bad challenge, McGinn went to injure him and he's only 16 . I responded by saying "if you're going to throw yourselves into tackles then you are going to get some back" - No comment back other than he thinks Leeds are in danger of relegation this season. (Let's hope so). As Leeds fans go, he's actually not that bad (I know, I know) - He was a fan of the Dirty Leeds side in the late 60's early 70's, so his views are somewhat clouded in that they are the greatest team on earth when really it was just a few years of success. To be fair we can be tarnished with that with our early 80's successes. I stand by the tackle being no more than a yellow and would have said the same if it was the other way round. And to be honest the tackle by Gray on Buendia looked a harsh yellow for me. He won the ball and followed through (like McGinn) - but maybe in this day and age you can't do that - which says more about how the game has changed for the worse (IMO). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duke313 Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 (edited) Judging by the team sheet for todays match, looks like McGinn and Kamara in a double pivot. Be interesting to see how that works, Kamara the more reserved with McGinn given more license to go forward. Could be a step away from the 3 man midfield, possibly being used against weaker teams.

MotoMkali Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Mcginn might be my least favourite player to watch in football at the minute. Like he has some moments but he's so unbelievably lazy all the time. It's so painful to watch. It's like watching pogba except pogba is a genuine world class talent and mcginn is not.

He's never had any pace at all but he had heart and determination and now he hasn't got much of that. I'm sick of him trotting around thinking I'm Super John McGinn. I'll start anyway. He needs to sit it out for a while or find a new club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilbertoAVFC Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 I just don't get why he seems to be #1 CM no matter what?? Like, he's a great guy and a real servant to the club but if he's playing 90 mins every week next season it's gonna be really annoying unless he substantially improves. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
