How did Burn get MoTM? Was bad today

Are you sure ?

So disappointing. We’ll be fine this season but Andone needs sorting- simply can’t be risked starting which isn’t ideal.

He certainly won't be able to moan about not getting game time. He out now for a few games and will only get a few minutes from the bench here and there when he is available. He is a silly boy and has left the side down big time.

According to the commenator, accidental handball in the box no longer awards a penalty according to the new rules...

Accidental? It didn't come off anyone onto his arm or anything like that. But, if it hits his arm in the box, there's a loud appeal - surely there should be a 'VAR checking for penalty - no penalty'?

 

[Dick Head]

I don't know about anyone else, but I have to say, as disappointed as I am that we lost, I am delighted with the way we are playing.

It's soothing the pain quite considerably for me tbh.

It's not boring, that's for sure.

What was the game last year? West Brom away I think in the cup. Got a chance, elbowed someone in the head. I want competitive players at our club but not thugs.

TBF, it seems the AMEX is shit for the VAR screens. Everywhere else the VAR screen comes up very quickly, at the AMEX we would be lucky if it comes up at all

51% possession despite having 10 men for 2/3rds of the game.

I was impressed by our performance and we keep going to the end.

Looked the better team today as we did in the previous two games.

Red card cost us and was some tired legs at the end with everyone having to work hard.

Andone again casts doubts if he can be trusted with his discipline, absolutely no need for that challenge, which was the biggest factor in the result.

Very, very frustrating game.

Andone's needless red card.

VAR ruling out another goal.

Conceding a soft goal. Yes it was a great finish but we had three opportunities to stop that attack and didn't take one of them. There was a thread on here the other day about 'taking one for the team'. One of our players should have down just that and stopped saints from breaking when they were still in their own half.

Locadia hitting the post. Just score. It's so much simpler.

Plenty of positives I know but right now the over riding emotion is frustration.

And with palace getting a win you know all that particular brand of herpes will pop up all over the board.

Agreed, it gives us hope we will be fine.

Andone is our new Knockaert.

Will be interesting to see how we respond if we are thrashed by Man City- great test of Potters skill, reckon he’s up to it but Andone fails the no dickhead policy.

Precisely, whether awarded or not it should be VAR'd.

 

[maltaseagull]

It came to his weaker foot, and was at an awkward height, not a sitter.

Even if it went in, VAR would have ruled it offside anyway.

You might be right about VAR as it seems to find a way to rule out goals. But he was NOT offside.

I do agree which is quite something because losing to Southampton hurts me more than any other side.

We are a really good, attacking side now. We just need a little bit of the rub of the green and I think we really could take apart a few good sides this season.

He's not a silly boy he's the...

Oh, hang on, I've got this the wrong way round.

I don't know how everyone else feels but maybe we may give City a game.






Then again we might get wiped out

This is starting to remind me of Fulham

Both goals were soft. Duffy swinging his leg and kicking nothing but air for the first and Pascal not paying attention from a throw for the second. Tired legs and minds but disappointing that we were our own worst enemy today.

 

[Steve in Japan]

Poor result in a game that would have been a Management target.

You hope to see where we are improving. Nor today.
