Been the better side for sure. Need to regain control before the inevitable momentum swing when Summerville and Fullkrug come on though.

We've got our own momentum shift players in fairness

This just isn't true, the ball is barely a foot away from Soucek and he's the closest player to it, he's got that ball all day long if Cash doesn't take him to ground

How is he the nearest player to it? He's got to go around Cash to be the nearest player to it - he tries that and fouls Cash. 

Cash is between him and the ball and playing the ball - it's not rash, it's not daft, it's exactly what you want Cash to do and he does it well and gets fouled.

The ref doesn't see the touch and gives a penalty and the VAR don't overturn him because VAR makes all of its decisions based around the politics of VAR rather than with their eyes.

It's an absolute shocker.

Officials are like general melchett in blackadder:

If nothing else works, a total pig-headed unwillingness to look facts in the face will see us through.

For those complaining about the Cash criticism,  it was a very risky and unnecessary challenge that gave the ref a decision to make.  And since the ref seems to be called Homer anyway, he should not have taken that risk.  It's the kind of bad decision he makes all too frequently.  So many times lunges in and mistimes it or slides into the opponent.  Or goes to block a cross with his arms miles away from his body asking for them to be hit.  Drives me mad.   

And just seen this on the BBC website:  Matty Cash has conceded more penalties than anybody else since his Premier League debut in September 2020 - six.

1) The ref's position

2) Soucek's arm on Matty's shoulder

3) How does he miss this?

How can the ref see Cash touch the ball from this angle.

Does he have X-Ray vision?
