GWT: PL Matchweek (mostly) 26

Damn that's a nice hit from Callum.

United are doing a really effective job clogging up space, but that from Mount was brilliant

 

[Jussi]

I don't mind it not being one, even though the very nature of the rules states it should be, I just wish there was more consistency throughout the season for these types of things, or its always a toss up.

Gary Neville pointed out on Sky Sports that a few months ago it would've been a penalty but they've changed the rulings on them since then.

I’m still terrified of the home leg against atletico without Mount

Guessing it’ll be Ziyech because Havertz won’t do the defensive work

What’s the link to the rule change? Great rule change if so - I was going by what I’d previously seen called

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Wonder if we see Werner at half time. Chances seem to be coming on the break and I'd rather see him making those runs than Mount. Wouldn't surprise me if either Giroud or Ziyech gets yanked.

 

[Blender]

Just settle that down Giroud.

Seems I might've called this

I guess refs have more leeway in how they interpret them.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Really impressed by United's defensive movement tbh

OOH that was close from Giroud.

 

[Blender]

Great cross, so close from Giroud.

 

[Peen]

Wow brilliant ball from Cho

Girouds give a shit level to get on the end of those is so high

 

[Jussi]

Not even close!

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Not even close!

I mean, if he makes contact that's a certain goal and he only barely missed it?

It's easily the best chance either side have had

 

[Jussi]

Hmm, Werner with a shiner and Azpi with his right hand in a brace...

Azpi's hand was in the brace against Atletico

 

[Peen]

Uniteds shirts this ssn are actually quite nice if you look paste giant chevron logo

 

[Jussi]

Has handball rule in the Premier League quietly changed?

The Premier League hinted at a 'softening' of the handball rule back in September when outrage at the decisions being made was at its peak. But we still saw some questionable calls after that, so it could be the case that the Premier League have waited until this round of fixtures to be a little more forgiving towards players.

You must be fun at parties.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

You must be fun at parties.

Or might just be that stupid posts get treated as such?

Just get your coat and leave already.

The issue is, I just cannot bring myself to do this.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Ziyech is not gonna be on after half time, I am certain of this

After making some good plays early, he's been an empty jersey the rest of the half.

 

[AB13]

Chelsea's counterpress has been as good as ever but their settled press has been poor. United have passed the ball around with ease for the majority of this half. United have also had a great press, well done Solskjaer.

 

[TJ21]

Just need that final ball to come off. Chelsea is defending well, but a few passes into the area where its been tough for Rashford and co to settle. Good half overall, would be a big 3 points with the derby coming and Leicester losing today
