They deemed it was interfering enough to stop the keeper getting to the ball. Van der Ven pushes Pickford to stop him getting to the ball, and then scores because of the push. If one is interfering, so is the other.Pickford too soft under crosses, always has been.
Our goal was disallowed for offside, not a foul on the keeper, if Ndiaye and been on it wouldve been given.
We badly need a striker with a semblance of composure
There was a point that Grealish thrown a strop with him because of the poor hold up playBeto's been fine
If Fine is your version of soft timid and rubbish then yes I agree with you.Beto's been fine
Apparently pickford should have been stronger for that one.How come no var looking at the push on Pickford?
He has impacted the goalie, who would have been a yard further over and therefore may have saved the header. He probably wouldn't but that's why they disallowed itBut from the header the keeper didn’t touch Ndaiye and wasn’t impeded at all - so what happened to inactive and active
Yes, I would take of Gueye and drop KDH in beside Garner, see if it works. Gueye has been running around headless that 1st half and we need someone through the middle capable of running with the ball.……0-2 is difficult to take in such a tight game where we’d done ok up to a point. Unsurprisingly, our threat is from wide areas with plenty of crosses into the box but again we lack the finish some of the wing play deserves.
Definitely dodgy VAR, one blocker rather than 2 on their keeper might have made the difference.
Difficult to see a route back, be interesting if Moyes brings on Alcaraz and maybe sacrifices Gueye.
Playing okay really.. They've scored from 2 corners. One poorly defended, the other one was a foul on Pickford, ignored by var obviously.Just checking the score. How bad has it been?
Who up top ?Get Beto, KDH and Gana off and bring on Dibling, Rohl and Alcaraz on.
The first two goals we've conceded from set pieces all season ?Set pieces. We simply need to get better at them because modern football is dominated by them.
hat thread would be nice, do you have a witches one?Felt like a defining game today. Top half with a win or firmly in the bottom half.
I have a nice collection of hats and will gladly eat one if we get a point here.
