Which is what makes the snail passing speed between Dunk and JPVH so frustrating. Why wait for them to be firmly set in their uber block? This must have been obvious to our coaching team all week? It was obvious what they'd do.Everton are not very good but they are refusing to come onto our centre backs which makes cutting through their midfield with one key pass that much more difficult plus Everton have slowed the game which allows players to effectively fall back park the bus with 10 behind the ball we need to up the tempo
Because he got knocked below his elbow joint by a hip thrust. Thats basic mechanics of the human body! He's not made of f***ing Jelly!It was a push but Veltnam looks like he deliberately moves ball away with his hand
Yes - that's very much what it looked like to me.It was a push but Veltnam looks like he deliberately moves ball away with his hand
Yep. No doubt that Veltnam made sure he handled it out of play rather than being pushed(which he was)and ball hitting his hand.Blatant penalty.
Stupid decision by Veltman sums up our piss poor performance so far, absolutely no inspiration whatsoever, playing into Everton’s hands. And we all knew it was coming - it always happens in these games.
He could actually just have fallen right over onto the ball, or even into the way of their players - wouldn't have won a penalty for that.That’s the dark arts not working out. Velts tries to exaggerate the contact. No control so hand hits ball. Ref seems not enough contact so it becomes a stonewall pen.
Yep. If he just fell forward and touched it, no pen. But he clearly swats it away.It was a push but Veltnam looks like he deliberately moves ball away with his hand
