[Albion] Premier League 17-21/2/24

[raymondo]

Wasn’t there a VAR check for possible handball? All 22 players seemed to be surrounding the ref.

Aahh yes you are right, but (enough of your facts!!!) I still hate the situation, it's too random.

 

[Weststander]

I would have loved both Chelsea and Citeh to lose today...however, why does the ref add on 5 minutes instead of the 4 that were indicated?? and why let City take their corner and then only blow the whistle when the ball is cleared to the halfway line. I HATE IT!! Independent timekeeping please, with a clock visible on the stand roof. Football timekeeping is a shambles.

Once officials enter Greater Manchester, they’re hellbent on sucking up to Manure or Guardiola. Inventing added time. Blatant bias.

The media narrative will be about Chelsea being brilliant when in reality they were battered for most of the match but city finished like clowns - especially haaland.

No idea how that was not a pen at the end. Levi had a handful of the city player’s shirt which stopped him jumping and also caught the ball but his hand happened to in a natural position when it hit him.

Chelsea got very very lucky.

 

[Triggaaar]

Wow! Caicedo lucky not to get a red card's there! Totally gratuitous studs up and the ref is 5 yards away looking straight at it and somehow VAR don't see a problem. Not even a yellow

Now just got a yellow so should be off!

First challenge should have been a yellow. The one he got a yellow for wouldn't have been yellow, but was given for the totting up.

 

[GT49er]

Results have gone our way. 7th. place up for grabs. We're going to lose, then - always seems to happen like that.

Precisely this.

I viewed it differently. Chelsea won the first half and looked extremely good. They had two chances they should have scored from (Jackson, Sterling).
City upped the ante in the second half, and were clearly the better team (Chels had some decent opportunities on the counter though). Had plenty of chances to do it, especially for Haaland.

 

[Questions]

I thought you were implying that they would lose Shirley but might get one goal as a consolation - maybe I misunderstood

I’m not sure I commentated but . Sorry it’s been a long day.

Colwill actually pushed the ball away with his hand following the initial ball to arm contact. I was defo expecting a penalty there.

 

[Seagull58]

Have you watched many carthorses play football?

Mateta?

 

[Sea Cider]

Might be my bitter Brighton specs on, but did anyone last think that Trossard 'penalty' was a total dive?

 

[Jimmy Grimble]

Just catching up with some highlights from yesterday, has there been another initiative from the PGOML to not overturn on-field decisions? Quite a few incidents which in previous weeks would have been overturned. The Forest penalty shout in particular would definitely have been given.

I don't think anybody knows what that lot are doing anymore, themselves least of all.

 

[A1X]

Right, come on Luton

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Pitty that their forward and only really goal threat got injured in the warmup.

 

[dazzer6666]

Mateta?

Was chatting (slowly and not using any long words obviously) to a Palace fan in the hotel bar last night......he asked me what I thought of Mateta......I said he was a donkey. He agreed

 

[London Irish]

Of course Luton play like that this week

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Oh dear

 

[BBassic]

Terrible from Luton that

37 seconds and United winning
