General Premier League Thread 2023-24 Mod Note in op 27/6/23 And 21/05/24

He definitely had a pull back but let go quickly enough. Strange I thought for it to be given. If that’s the level required there would be multiple penalties in every game.

"Good refereeing"

Fernandes deliberately jumps into the player with no intention to play the ball. Even if it is Grealish. No card.

Good God....the standard of refereeing, and punditry, is at an all time low.

Taking out an opposing player intentionally ? It's enough to constitute unsportsmanlike behaviour at the very least, even if you consider it insufficient contact because it didn't fcuk up the player.

I'd be one to maintain that not every foul should be a card, but that one qualifies for me.

Two great saves at the end. By the rules the penalty was correct, however they're hardly ever given for that so again another reffing controversy arises.

Its not a controversy. They just need to have the balls to give each and every one, and then the players will cop on.

At the moment, every free and corner is just a wrestling fest.

Outside of that, City are toying with them, and Pep will be annoyed that its only one.

what a move. United are muck though

That was to easy, Bruno like a statue and McTominay not quick enough for the overlap and Haaland wasn't going to miss again.

That is one of the greatest goals you will ever see. Three ridiculous flicks in their own half to start the move.

Honestly, City look great and all, but Utd are...

1. Stepping off them

2. Leaving acres in the middle to play through.
