Yeah I think the positive outlook at the moment is the young players are getting real valuable minutes and by next season, they should be much more ready for the next step.Id have taken johnaon off, and moved kulu to rw
Enjoy the rest of your weekend.At the end of the day if we carry on achieving an average of 1.2 points per game as per your workings out we ARE relegation contenders whether it’s this season or next and whether you agree or not.
Thats been the one promising part of our season. The experience our young players are getting in difficult circumstances.Yeah I think the positive outlook at the moment is the young players are getting real valuable minutes and by next season, they should be much more ready for the next step.
Gray and Bergvall would likely have featured a lot in EL and had occasional minutes in the PL.
Now they have has serious game time in tough conditions.
That will advance their years.
just a shame Moore got injured
I thought they'd get it mostly in EL and League Cup which I'd have been totally happy with as long as we were healthy in the league.Thats been the one promising part of our season. The experience our young players are getting in difficult circumstances.
I love how Bergval has grown in confidence as he has got more used to the premier league. For such a young player he has a great mentality.
Hope Moore is fit enough to get some game time towards the end of the season.
They are all told what to say. Only Karen Carney was talking sense. The pass by Bergvall was going to Porro, Joelinton intercepted the ball with his hand, ball falls to Guimares who does through ball to Gordon who scores. Never in the world of football have I seen that allowed. This would be never be allowed against Liverpool or any of the teams who are the darlings of the media. It’s a sick joke.Pundits going on about his arm is by his side but surely it lead to a goal scoring opportunity.
Disallowed in European comps.
A post on the Premier League Match Centre read: "The referee’s call of goal was confirmed by VAR, who checked for a potential handball by Joelinton in the build-up and deemed that his arm was by his side, in a natural position and the contact was accidental."Still waiting for the PGMOL explanation as to why the goal was allowed, given it was so contentious.
They’ve already explained why Arsenal conceded a penalty.(that was clear as day the correct decision)
Can only assume there is no explanation as they cannot explain it. (Or because it’s us and we don’t make a big enough fuss about it)

I remember that season! Watching us through the gates with my mate as we couldn't get in (you could just about see one 1/4 of the pitch/goal), I believe we played at Wimbledon and Klinsmann scored 4!I remember this. Shuddering.
Letter of the law and all that but we all see open play handballs given for far less. VAR aren't the issue, the woeful ref was, play should have stopped immediately, long before the goal and for it to ever be an even potential talking point.It was the right call.
Since 21/22, inadvertent handballs in the build up will only rule out a goal, if the hand ball was by the player who scores.
The only check was to see if the hands were in an unnatural position - they were not.

Come on mate, you're like a dog with a bone re. relegation. That's all you've talked about throughout the thread. We're not getting relegated. Too many worse teams around us.We’re not too good to go down,
my worry is if we get dragged into a relegation battle, we simply do not have the characters in the squad to get out of it
