Kelleher is way too good to be playing with Brentford. I'd be surprised if he's not picked up by a much bigger club in a year or two.You can attempt to rationalise it all you like Its turned out to be a terrible move selling both.
Diaz was 28 when they sold him. Only 29 a few days. Sold a player in his prime for a costly replacement who has been almost completely shite in the same 6 months Diaz is ripping it up at Bayern.
The initial foul doesn't matter then once there is another to cancel it out? Apply that same logic to other aspects of the game and two fellas can give each other a puck into the head and its all square.Great post.
The Sky Sports presenter whose name I don't know (and it's a WOMAN, deep breaths lads) asked a good question yesterday. Sobozlai was sent off for preventing a goal scoring opportunity but the ball went in anyway, so how could he have prevented a goal scoring opportunity?
Now I would say that many of that Liverpool teams’ heads were absolutely scrambled for obvious reasons. The FA cup win the previous Saturday was a poignant occasion and really a celebration of Merseyside. Remember it well. Still and all, Arsenal were superb to come and win by 2 clear goals at Anfield.I would agree. Liverpool were utterly dominant then and Arsenal had to go there and win by two clear goals.
City beat a dreadful QPR side with ten men who were haunted to not be relegated.
No comparison.
I’ve explained the reasoning and logic. Football is a business and there will be times when those who make the big decisions have to balance up between football and business. As fans we always want to keep the best players and Diaz was a super player but anyone who can’t see the business side of it just doesn’t have a brain.You can attempt to rationalise it all you like Its turned out to be a terrible move selling both.

He wanted out. It was either give him a big contract at 29 or sell him for a big fee. It’s fairly straight forward. The fact he’s doing well at Bayern isn’t a surprise but also not overly relevant as the club just weren’t prepared to give a big wage to him at that age. When the club offered Salah & Van Dijk big wages at their ages, everyone else is happy to jump on the bandwagon of saying that was a stupid decision. Can’t have it each and every way.
Arsenal were 11 pts clear with a game at hand at one stage, if Arsenal hadn't won the league it would have been the worst ever choke.I would agree. Liverpool were utterly dominant then and Arsenal had to go there and win by two clear goals.

For Haaland, who he stopped scoringGreat post.

Does not compute.For Haaland, who he stopped scoring
That's grand, but the onfield decision was goal. If he was so sure he saw two fouls he would have pulled it back.Yes the ball was on course for the goal, which was my point, but the only way Haaland was going to going to regain the advantage was to foul himself as there wasnt enough time or distance between himself and the goal to do anything but that. There really wasn't any other outcome for this IMO other than what was correctly concluded.
What you are asking for here is for two blatant fouls to be completely ignored for the sake of the ball ending up in the net anyway, never going to happen. The ref blows the whistle as soon as Szoboszlai pulls him back in the pre VAR days if it was clear Haaland would be unable to regain the advantage, which it was.
