PL round 17

Arsenal control the whole game but it'll be West Ham unhappy not to go home with 3...

Burnley end the day in 6th. Really surprised both Liverpool and Arsenal drew.

And how is the Solanke project any better than the Origi project?

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Hear that West Brom time-wasted another tie.

West Ham has really tightened it up defensively under Moyes.

 

[hatterson]

Man seeing those replays of Rashford's near goal. That was about as pure a strike as you'll ever see and he only failed to score by about 2 inches.

Moyes really did Spurs a solid this past week. Just like that they are back in the top four even though people thought they couldn't keep up.

15M€ better.

 

[Savant]

Two weeks in a row, undone by a soft call.

Should have done more though.

I haven't seen today's disallowed goal, but they've been undone by scoring one goal in 180 minutes of play.

Tally up to 10 points of reffing decisions gone against us. Have to think it turns around at some point.

Spurs in deep shit 2 matches ago. Now back up to 4th and maybe....just maybe they've figured out this Wembley thing.

Let's see if they can get a positive results at Man City over the weekend. *cringe*

Well what do you want? We score good goals they call them off. Other teams score illegitimate goals they're left to stand and penalties are given to the opposition for funsies while we're held by low blocks of teams that don't have any interest in trying to do anything but defend for 95% of the game.

It's tough.

 

[East Coast Bias]

I think there's a fair chance that one of Spurs, Gunners or Pool drop points. Which would see them top 6. Maybe top 5.

This held up well. Spot on.

I want to be able to score goals against inferior teams. I don't care if one goal was disallowed. That's such a cop-out when we both know Liverpool is capable of scoring more than one goal against Everton and West Brom.

 

[YNWA14]

You want to be able to score but don't care if we do score and then it's disallowed (wrongly)?

I'd love to see refs and leagues alike reward teams that actually try to play.

Remember what happened last year when we faced league-leaders Manchester City?

 

[SSF]

heh, that was a pretty blatant handball by Solanke. i mean, i know why he did it as the ball would have whizzed past him and Nyom likely clears.

Not entirely surprised that a Liverpool supporter thinks defending isn't real football.

Despite it being a troll post...You can defend well and still try to play. Sticking 10 players in the box and keeping your entire team behind the ball isn't defending well it's just anti-football.

Jonjo Shelvey is my favourite Newcastle player

I want the team to play to its potential. Even if that goal today counted, would you say two goals in 180 minutes against Everton and West Brom is Liverpool playing to its potential?

A true artiste at slide tackling the shit out of players after they no longer have the ball.

What games did these 10 points come off of?
