Premier League 2021-2022 part II

Nvm I think the Chalobah one should have been a penalty watching it back

I think the only rational reason it wasn’t given by VAR is that arguably the contact started outside the box. Although it’s very clear that additional contact occurred.

Bottom line is that they were 2 50/50 decisions and Chelsea were advantaged by both. Also screw those supporters who put up that disgraceful banner.

That banner has always been up. Not all Chelsea supporters are bad, but a good portion are ok with the ones who are.

Everton also are looking more and more likely to be going down.

 

[BKIslandersFan]

Everton should have brought Fat Sam back. Or heck, Tony Pulis.

 

[AB13]

Ødegaard is a footballing genius with the ball really.

 

[Rob]

Ramsdale with a massive save.

 

[Jussi]

 

[These Are The Days]

Everton are above relegation only on goal difference.

Leeds made off like bandits today

 

[luiginb]

Does Chelsea play West Ham this year? That outta be fun.

 

[These Are The Days]

Just watched Yarmolenko's goal. My favorite all season. That's bigger than football

 

[hatterson]

I think Laca *just* kept moving forward on that.

I still hate those pens though.

He just stutter stepped. That's allowed so good goal.

I don't really like penalties either but that was pretty egregious.

The rule is similar to hockey in the sense that you have to keep moving forward/towards the goal. You can speed up/slow down, but if you actually stop (or move backwards) it would count as a feint and thus be a yellow.

Laca came very close to stopping but did keep his body moving forward.

Yeah, I didn't think it was all that close though. He clearly kept forward momentum.

Great penalty kick but though.

 

[BKIslandersFan]

Rodgers is gonna get the sack.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Arsenal are a very enjoyable club to watch right now

Yup. April 23rd, at Chelsea. Hopefully no “Roman Abramovich” chants. Wonder if they’ll remove the banner by then.

 

[Jussi]

Next weekend is not kind to FPL players.

 

[Live in the Now]

Great ending to the Leeds game btw. They still can't defend, which IMO again shows the problem didn't lie with the manager, but that was very exciting.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Missed the game today, but really happy for Yarmo. He's been the whipping boy this year (for good reason) as the highest-paid player and biggest underperformer, but that was a special moment.

Otherwise for West Ham, what a disaster. Both Antonio and Cresswell left with injuries today, added to Bowen. So that's almost surely out of Europa against Sevilla this week and I'd say 8th in the PL would be an ambitious target now. Who could have possibly seen that running a paper-thin squad into the ground and insisting on not getting any cover would bite them in the ass?? Oh, that's right, only everyone.

World class player. brilliant.

They’ve recently been an unrecognizable team from they had been for a long while.

Is there a gameweek 29 EPL thread?

There was but it got lost in the migration and no one remade it.
