Is the Leicester Arsenal game on PPV? Don’t see it on Premier Sports. I thought it was only 1 game a week?

This match is gick

At least we get 20 minutes of funtime Traore chaos now anyway.


As an aside, I far far prefer not having fake crowd noise. but the downside is I hear way too much of Martin Tyler's mouth noises and breathing...

This is it

Poor keeping or players in his way? Good strike but keeper should do better for me

Looked like terrible keeping to me, decent strike but he got there, got a hand to it but just looked resigned to the fact it was going in, maybe he didn’t have a clear view of ball but looked very poor to me

It's not a red card even though it looks bad but all Liverpool fans think its a red card after last week. Everton will appeal it but to be honest the young lad they signed nkounkou looks a better player going forward than Digne.

What a forum

Imo, we are highly unlikely to see a player revolt under Ole because he seems to have the backing of the players and be is not nearly as prickly as someone like Jose. I firmly believe we will not win anything under him and he will ultimately be sacked, probably before this season is out.

Dan James is a perfect example of the mistakes he is repeating. Was poor against Newcastle last weekend and was subbed early, he'd also had a couple of poor showings before that too. What does he do? Start him yesterday. DJ seems like a lovely lad and is super quick but he is not a good footballer.

At this point in time the majority of United fans imo want him gone. There is the bones of a very good team there but we only see the best of them under fits and starts with Ole. I've no doubt that if he had no connection with the club then 99% of fans would want him gone but because he is a legend he is getting infinitely more slack than any other manager would get and that he deserves.

I genuinely think Utd are one good manager away from being back. Jose wasn't it. His reputation has you all saying it's not the manager that's the problem. Seriously think he put you back 5 years with his nonsense.
I dislike Utd but always thought the fans didn't deserve him, he's a fcuking horror show

Tbf you have blatant Liverpool fans stating Everton are doing it again etc and referring back to VVD. What other fans of other football clubs are doing that on the forum?

gimli2112

what's a blatant Liverpool fan?, do you mean some of us are in the closet?
emotions are raw after last week, Pickford could have injured anyone else and it wouldn't have been a problem. I think the issue is
we don't Like Everton or Pickford
we really like VVD
Digne shouldn't have been sent off today especially as he's on my FF team
but we're still mad

Quazzie

Xhaka was nowhere near the keeper when Lacazette headed the ball. That goal should have stood.

Another mistake by VAR

This is it

Awkward replay angles but Xhaka looked to be between Kasper and the ball. Not sure if Kasper would've got to it anyway but still interfering I'd say.

Looks like he's blocking him here.

Edit: PEA is actually offside when the ball is headed on as well.

Apologies, the ones blatantly referring to last week. Which is what Eh I donno is referring. Last week's incident had no correlation to this weeks.

Emotions raw after a week of a player getting injured? Facking hell man it's a game of ball :pac:

Everton are appealing the red card for Digne anyway so I wouldn't transfer him out yet!

Yeah, can’t really be any complaints.

Been a poor game of football.

vvd being injured the way he is has huge ramifactions, i've already said I believe our time at the top is limited and he's vital to it. i just don't think you could take one player out of a side and damage it as much as VVD out of Liverpool

Ian Wright, Alan Shearer, and Dermot Gallagher disagree with you.

That doesn't show the most important angle from behind the goal.

So at 16 seconds in that clip when the arsenal player heads the ball to the back post Xhaka isn't in front of the keeper and PEA isn't ahead of play?

No. Look at the goal from behind the goals. Xhaka was well over a yard away from the keeper. Xhaka in no way interfered with the actions of the keeper in his efforts to save that shot.

Lucas Hood

Better angle here. Dermot Gallagher explaining what officials said.

From the behind goal angle I'd be giving it. Ah well.

Alfred Borden

Bellerin should be off.

marklazarcovic

Bellerin had to get a yellow there , Christ the officials would drive ya daft,the inconsistency.. a tiny tip.on a foot is a yellow ..two footed lunge nowhere near the ball is grand.

What's the yellow for? There was no contact. Leicester should be down to 10 for the dive, so i agree the ref is brutal
