The example set by Mane in the Champions League finalSo now strikers can just kick the ball at defenders hands in the area and you get a penalty. Glad that’s clear. We should start doing that every game.
Even worse decision today as it deflected off Winks’ heelThat decision is just as stupid as the one at Utd yesterday. No intent in either case.
It's not VAR. It's the rules.
To clarify this further in both cases the ref has come over to view it himself and in both situations awarded a penalty.
VAR and the ref are implementing the rules. The rules are stupid. This will change in a few weeks after the on-going complaints where everyone in the game are in disbelief.
At 5-1 it doesn't impact the result. However, imagine if it was a tight game and we were winning just 1-0.
Was watching on Premier Sports. Are we still 1-0 down?
Apart from a couple of players these are the same players that stopped chasing and running for Poch , need more fresh blood.
A few years ago I couldn't wait for this this sort of game to start, now I'm flled with utter dread.
I hope I'm proven totally wrong today, but I can't see us getting anything out of this today.
If we play well and get beat, well fair enough, but this turgid form of late just has to improve.
I feel like I've been taken back to the 90's here.
Sorry I can't be more upbeat, but it's the way I feel.
