Don't disagree that it's always been a penalty it's more the mentality of playing for it Said earlier about Ronaldo, he had an insane skill of going around the keeper and scoring, to me there Gordon isn't even trying to score he's trying to draw a foul and obviously succeeding knock the ball past the keeper without the keeper getting a touch, hence how heavy and wide that touch is and then continue your run at a different angle to where he plays the ball to ensure that the keeper contacts him but can't win the ball Harry Kane does it all the time He is more interested in a penalty than he is scoring That is the "modern" slant on it and what is infuriating about it 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went round the keeper and hardly any contact and he went down even though he probably could've just tapped it into an empty net. Penalty was still given so players will keep falling down if they feel a brush from the keeper or just move their leg towards them even if the keeper is trying to avoid contact. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarryOnVilla Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago I’m quite happy that West Ham are losing. With all the Duran stuff in the summer the main Wetspam aggregator slipped in to my twitter algorithm.. he’s such an insufferable knob. Just because of him, I’m happy to see West Ham suffer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
