Match Thread Everton v Manchester United - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[ForeverEverton]

Offside aside, if Siggurdsson wasnt so [Poor language removed] we win!!!! How the hell has he hit the keeper from there........

 

[Joey66]

Change the teams colours to red, and swop DCL for Ladyboy Firmino and that goal goes to VAR and stands.

Exactly that they would have got that goal came off Maguire so player onside anyway....

Gylfi is offside but

1. He's on the ground so not obstructing GK's view
2. He gets out of the way and doesn't touch the ball
3. The shot was deflected so it came off a united player and he isn't offside anyway
4. De Gea was going the other way because of the deflection and doesn't save it regardless
5. VAR is corrupt.

Gilfi, was in an offside position when DCL took the shot, the ball was deflected, Gilfi moves out-of the way of the ball made no effort to play the ball, the only question is was he obstructing the goalkeepers vision? De Gea is 6"4' and Gilfi is lying on the ground it's not possible that his vision was obscured as he was going the right direction to save from DCL's shot the deflection wrong footed him, he's never going to save it. Goal should have stood.

His eyes follow the ball all the way into the corner. Complete bull crap.

Souness looks as though his brain has been embalmed. Scraping the barrel now with these comfort zone pundits with their agenda. "When's the Xmas do at The Ivy, lads ??"

Spot on

 

[Mozza1987]

How do you know he wasn’t obstructing the keepers vision? He was 2 yards in front of him lay on the floor?!

Maybe the fact he moved to try and save the first shot before the deflection so he clearly could see the shot.

 

[ChesterBlue]

I’m livid, essentially ended our European charge with one awful VAR decision - how many times do we need to be screwed by it?

 

[Disgruntledgoat]

It’s almost as if the number of pots Carlo has won wasn’t part of the refs decision making process.

The ref doesnt say one word to him, he doesnt try and calm him down he just waits til he stops talking and then sends him off. Because he knows he has no comeback. He is an utter non-entity who has just presided over a farce and somebody who has achieved everything in football is calling him on it.

 

[Joey66]

Am I right by saying that because the ball came off Maguire it doesn't matter than Sigurdsson was offside?

Played on yes that rule is still going yet officials today forgot.....
that stupid liner got our right back booked then queried the goal after the ref had give it...

Wouldn't change much. You'd just be able to hear the corruption at work instead of seeing the results of it.

 

[Shibbywiggles]

Lol Solskjaer saying he’s happy with a point and he wouldn’t have been upset if the goal was given!
They massively got away with one!

 

[USABlue]

The point is everyone knows that goal would count for some teams and not others. That's the whole problem with the FA application of VAR

 

[matty1878]

VAR will be discussed AGAIN as it’s a joke what’s the point, as it’s costing us points
