    I hope big Rom keeps his goal.

    Really need a few points after the shocker that was last week.

    If that goal is given, its gonna put a bit of a dent in my rises today.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,747 ✭✭✭Ziegler1988


    Good man Alexis, rest of my team not so much. Expecting a Lukaku double digit here to pile the misery on. Shipping Snodgrass instead of Redmond looking like a 10+ point mistake

    Yup. This troll has made a living off assists from his dreads and slight touches


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,748 ✭✭✭Swiper the fox


    Look, this Lukaku captainers thinks the only way to decide this is to stop looking at replays and ask him if he got a touch or not, that's fair right?

    Seems like the obvious way to deal with this.

    It's being given to him everywhere though. I'm very 50/50 on what will actually happen here.

    As a non-owner, I hope he loses the goal! Granted I don't think he touched it.

    Gueye but I think it will stand as a Lukaku goal.

    Confirmed Lukaku by fpl. I hate Lukaku so much

    When does the goalscorer be decided for certain?

    1 hour after the match, unless it was Suarez :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,810 ✭✭✭✭jimmii


    Now it's been given I'm guessing it's going to be a case of definitively proving he didn't touch it, as opposed to proving he did, which is tricky given he was clearly claiming he did.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,056 ✭✭✭Sooner or Later


    FPL have form on this.

    Remember that John Terry non - goal last year.
    Despite all evidence to the contrary they still refused to change it.

    That incident was such a joke.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,052 ✭✭✭✭titan18


    I got as much of a touch on that as Lukaku did

    Lukaku, the big lump. That said, his points are swinging the dial in favour of him over Benteke as my third striker.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,347 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    Can't beat a good old fashioned 'did he touch it' controversy all the same.

    The dubious goals thingy won't meet till later in the week though ;)

    Opta seem to be crediting it to Lukaku which is the problem as FPL take the stats from them.

    They certainly have made some stupid decisions in the past with Deulofeu getting screwed over 2-3 times last year on definite assists.

    FPL can still change it but it mightn't happen till after the game.

    I think that was their way of confirming it tbh. Dodgiest captain assist and goal you will ever see.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,267 ✭✭✭✭manual_man


    Very hard to say if he got a slight touch or not... i'll take it as a Lukaku owner, 2 weeks running going by the never-captain-Lukaku rule is costing me though :P

    As well as my Silva goal GW1 last season that Yaya took. Changed to Silva by the dubious goals panel of course. It's all about who claims it the most, the news sites just go with that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,685 ✭✭✭✭wonski


    Opta is the official jury for fpl.

    That's all.

    Its not down to them though it all depends on the feed. I don't think it's going to be changed but it's not the FPL guys who decide that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,479 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    It kind of leads me to believe he might have touched it. They will have looked at it in much more detail than I have.

    I still haven't seen a touch in any replay though so if it exists it is the most minute of touches.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,775 ✭✭✭✭MEGA BRO WOLF 5000


    Absolute JOKE giving that to lukaku. **** off.

    They'd get the information from their source though right?
