EPL Matchday 15 - On Optus Sport

[jod23]

Not surprised by the result, but the score line was closer than it should have been.

We are so far from a decent side atm. So many holes to fix which is crazy since the fortune we just spent. Need to start with the CM.

It's a bit weird at the moment. I know it's a change up in the middle of a season but Potter was getting more out of a much lesser squad at Brighton than he is out of the squad at Chelsea. Be interesting to see how Chelsea go against Newcastle next weekend.

I get var not overturning to an extent. But shows the inconsistency of the system. It's a free kick minutes later 3m outside the box for more side on and similar force. The worse decision was the high boot on Lucas. But easily could have been 2 penalties and at the very least 1

Mate take the goggles off. Sess dives to try to win a penalty with the softest touch in his back. And Thiago doesnt even make contact with Lucas with the high boot.

Play on.

Jod telling people to take the goggles off... The irony

High boot is dangerous play, would have been a fk anywhere else on the field

Didnt even touch him. It's not a foul.

With no contact its an indirect fk for playing in a dangerous manner. Not a penalty.

That is usually only given in extreme circumstances. Most referees will let it go if no contact is made except for the most dangerous of sitiations. Im pretty sure you would go nuts if Liverpool were awarded a penalty without any contact being made on one of our plsyers.

 

[Zidane98]

I liked Ralph and think he did a decent job there.

But probably time for him to move on.

Maybe he needs anothet 9-0 loss to get things going again?

 

[Zidane98]

lol

Classic jod.

Wrong, it's a direct free kick

Incorrect. Playing in a dangerous manner is an indirect FK.

Learn the laws of the game champ.

And a direct free kick is awarded for careless attempts to play at the ball.

Classic Zidane not knowing anything

This is hilarious. You firstly claim dangerous play. When pointed out that is an indirect FK offense you change your tune to something else.

The use of careless is a grading of fouls in laws of the game btw. Careless (no discipline), reckless (yellow), excessive force (red). These all describe the level of foul committed which requires contact.

There is no law of the game that says a foul is awarded by "carelessly" attempting to play the ball.



The only exceptions to no contact are an opponent deliberately trying to kick an opponent (not the case here) or deliberately attempting to trip an opponent (not the case either).

I didn't change anything unlike yourself

 

[jd2010]

So high boots are given as indirect free kicks in the box?

Haven't seen one of them since Shearer was banging them in.

He also had years to build the team and system.

We just have s**t players.

TOP OF THE LEAGUE BABY!

You can't expect him to come in without a preseason or transfer window and just work miracles. It'll take a while and patience is needed.

It's going to be a bit of a rebuild of the club from top to bottom as we are seeing with the backroom staff atm. It'll be happening with the playing squad too.

TOP OF THE LEAGUE BABY!

Haven't you been top for months?

 

[Memphis]

A very good ebening to Memphis and RPCB

It was coming, new manager comes in squad plays like it’s never played before out of this world….

 

[Cruyff14]

We temporarily relinquished it to City for about 24 hours

Really the first time I'd watched Chelsea this season but you just looked second best all over the pitch.

Very un Chelsea like to see Arsenal really dominate at the Bridge.

Not lately

Yeah we have a decent record there the last couple of seasons.
