Just took him off-balance at the worst possible moment. I thought he was good considering he was feeding off scraps. Great assist. Stonewall penalty. Ref abysmal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were you going to comment on his assist? Hope you’ll be in the Kamara thread to talk about how s*** he was today also or is he exempt from that as he’s a “baller”?

ThunderPower_14 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Cannot believe that wasn't given a penalty, absolute garbage. Clearly forcefully pushed in the back causing him to miss his shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I call things as I see them, I would never 'hate' on any player - that was my point in reference to a comment from last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villan95 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Either had to hit that shot early or go down under the contact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfc1982am Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Another player that probably needs a good rest. Will definitely get it with England sitting on the bench under safegate.... sigh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rightdm00 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Great clipped in ball for the assist. This formation left him so isolated. In the 2nd half the lines were more connected and he finally got a couple decent chances. Don't want to see that formation again unless we are defending for our lives.

I'm sure all the other attributes he brings are very helpful for the team, but he's our main striker and has to be better at finishing chances in tight games. Yeah he needed to finish that chance at the end. Great assist for Torres goal but he really needs to be putting that last minute chance away.

WHY Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Some of the stuff VAR get involved in but don’t think a blatant push is worthy. It was a stonewall penalty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osmark86 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 So close today! Thought he was a bit isolated the majority of the game and never really got into it. Like Luiz I thought he looked a little bit tired today and ponderous at times, a rest would do him good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs to buck up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he gets 50 goal contributions I'll accept this absolutely shit level of performance. I think that's unlikely though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyVillans Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Getting a push like that just as you able to shoot would throw most people off. Annoying it doesn't get given as a pen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomaszk Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Quite how that isn't a pen is insane. Not sure about his approach to the shot mind. The lash he was lining up from that angle... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinebro Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Starved of service for the majority game. Thought he did well considering his working conditions. Unlucky not to score the winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJBOB Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 The push was a blatant pen, more so than the Wolves on. Quiet game, struggled with his hold up play but Dawson also held Haaland in check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tezzaleed Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 he was awful today. wasteful, poor touch not, in the game. shadow of his normal self. May need a rest or just had one of those days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
