just saw it on MOTD. Does the fact he was kicked mean it’s a penalty. Was there enough in it for VAR to speak to ref. I like this new bar set by Webb.

Might be the only coach for team and if you’ve asked them to run the line, they’re doing you a favour. Telling them they can’t then coach seems unfair. They’d just turn round and say i won’t bother doing line for you. Unless the coaching is influencing their decisions on the game just let it go.

I think the ref could have made the very easy decision of giving a FK coming out instead of going for a very weak handball. It looks clear to me Empoli player fouls Samp player.

These are fair comments and I’m not really talking about the violent conduct, punching, fighting part of it. But some yellow cards are very soft and usually a chat is enough. In truth I have no real issue with cards and maybe a game ban. I don’t really like the fine system for youth football...

I’m absolutely with you on this one and have taken some flak for voicing similar thoughts. I honestly think it’s disgusting to fine youth football. U16s should be cards only, miss games but no fines, it’s a money making exercise for local authorities. A lot of refs are happy to issue red cards...

Do you think the AR just missed the 2nd header and made his decision off the first header. Defo off on 1st header, closer than people think even off 2nd

Im glad that was classed as deliberate play. Defender wasnt particularly stretching. Ball wasnt played at pace. No obstructions, plenty of time to see it. He made a complete mess of his header. he shouldn’t have a get out of jail free card because he messed up. Now whether Salah standing in offf...

Arteta is a strange fella. Very calm in interviews. But then for the smallest of reasons losses his 💩. At one point he’s chatting to 4th official, walks away smiling and calm and then decides to go back and start screaming at him. It was obviously not a penalty and he should know that. But not...

That’s the reason I was asking and wondering what I had missed. Like I said, I knew I was being stupid 😂.

I’m clearly missing something when reading these but I can’t understand the difference, yet totally different outcomes.

Mbappe sacking Messi next week

Argies never learn.

Used his knee

Classic otamendi

I was shocked when I saw a Qatari team was in charge of such a high profile game. Surely they should be at the level of the players they’re referring. I mean how do you send Oliver home and not use Taylor. That baffles me.

Which is massive for both these teams. I’m glad it was as good a game as it was.

Why did the ref allow that sort of behaviour from the Moroccan team. Surrounding him. Aggressive. Trying to intimidate. Even looked like a bit of contact and he stood there with a daft smile. If he not getting the cards out for that then yet again it filters down to Grass roots.

200 thousand votes and 80 thousand thought it wasnt a penalty. Genuinely What chance do we have

Roy yes but you wouldnt usually say that about Nev. I just found it so strange that all 3 of them agreed it wasnt a penalty. The fact not a single player or GK argued with the decision tells us all we need to know.

Surely we all agree thats a clear penalty, if not then I’ll have to question every single decision I ever make again. How all 3 of them in the studio claimed thats not a penalty is mind blowing. All 3 so experienced as well.
