GWT: PL Matchweek 11

[CapitalsCupReality]

Pulisic!

kid is so deadly right now!

 

[JeffreyLFC]

Yikes, I liked Mane, but he's becoming the Ashley Young of forwards.

Another dive, but this time he fortunately gets caught. I would be disgusted with him if I was a Liverpool fan, but considering how much they've defended all his past actions they will probably defend his yellow card tonight too...

It was actually an awful decision by the referee. He definately got stepped on the foot. He went down after which got him the yellow but honestly based on that yellow card and the VAR now I am confused on what is a foul or not anymore... is getting stomped on the foot a fool or not?

 

[JeffreyLFC]

I don't know if it's Chelsea being that good or Watford that awful but it should be 8-0 if not more.

 

[AB13]

Ehhhhhhhhhhh, who I am supposed to believe? Is football a contact sport or not?

If he can stay on his feet without losing his balance but doesn’t, it is a dive. Way too many penalties this season have been harsh on the defender, United have had 4 unfairly given penalties.

Ben Foster is playing great!

I don't know if it's Chelsea being that good or Watford that awful but it should be 8-0 if not more.

I'd say 6-0 would be fair based on the quality of the chances. Ben Foster has been ridiculously good. 4 massive saves against Abraham, Pulisic, Mount, and Pulisic again.

 

[Savant]

Ehhhhhhhhhhh, who I am supposed to believe? Is football a contact sport or not?

I had no problem with the call then and I have no problem with it now. There were other, bigger errors

 

[The Abusement Park]

Firmino.

I think they’re pretty close. I think off the ball Firmino is infinitely better than Auba. But I think Auba is the better goal scorer.

 

[hatterson]

That's not a pen. Some contact on the foot, but it's not enough for a pen.

Deeply stupid challenge by Jorginho though.

 

[hatterson]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL VAR

 

[Blender]

That's not a pen. Some contact on the foot, but it's not enough for a pen.

Deeply stupid challenge by Jorginho though.

Once again they reward a huge dive with a penalty. Deulofeu easily could have stayed on his feet, and he threw himself to ground when he realized Kepa was getting the ball, but then popped up immediately to go complain despite being "injured". VAR has been a joke.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

That’s f***ing garbage.

 

[bleedblue1223]

VAR is confusing.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Fire Mike Dean you incompetent piece of crap.

 

[hatterson]

That's not as bad as the pen awarded to James last week, but it's still hilariously wrong.

If that was given live, I'd have wanted VAR to overturn it.

 

[Blender]

So rule of thumb now is if you receive any shin-on-shin contact in the box, just throw yourself to the pitch and you'll get a penalty.

 

[Prntscrn]

Compare that one to the one Mane got a yellow for Don't think neither of those are a penalty

Thats exactly my point... how could you give a penalty to Deulofeu but book Mane for simulation... I am very confused with VAR

 

[hatterson]

Wow Foster almost played absolute hero.

 

[JeffreyLFC]

Foster MOTM

 

[Blender]

Not the most convincing performance by Chelsea, but I'll take the win. You need to be able to grind out close ones to be a good team, so it's good to see.

Foster was 100% the man of the match. Stellar performance.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Foster is so f***ing good wow. What a performance.

Dreadfully refereed game. Not just the penalty, which was a f***ing joke, but a lot of just brutal calls and things let slide the whole game.

 

[Savant]

Wow Foster almost played absolute hero.

One of the many English keepers better than Pickford

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

So rule of thumb now is if you receive any shin-on-shin contact in the box, just throw yourself to the pitch and you'll get a penalty.

like the studio guys said, that’s not fixing a clear mistake, it’s re-refereeing.

 

[YNWA14]

So stepping on someone is okay as long as they don’t go down?
