johnh Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 'Shoulder charge (shoulder to shoulder) is only 'fair' if the ball is at the feet of the player being charged. In the Aguero case, the ball was four or five yards ahead. A shoulder charge 'off the ball' is a foul, end of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You see it all the time when full backs knock the striker out the way to let the ball run out of play. Bournemouth look shocking here, wish they played like this against us. You'd put money on that the centre halves have never played together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete0 Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 Clear pen turned down for Bournemouth even though the ref had a clear view of it. Origi looks very poor. Scored from a hard angle, but other than that looks very amateur on the ball (controls it like he's wearing 2 pairs of shin pads the way the ball bounces off him), and even worse off it Arter showed him up big time Origi ran round him like a dog chasing its tail.

johnh Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 Just watched the first half of Bournemouth v Liverpool. As much as I hate to say it, the Liverpool players work twice as hard as ours. Every time a Bournemouth player gets the ball, anywhere on the pitch, he has a Liverpool player in his face. When the Everton opposition get possession, Everton jog back into their own half and set-up defensively. There is seldom any pressing from anywhere. I honestly don't think we are, currently, fit enough to play a pressing game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aguero put the ball passed Luiz who had no chance of keeping pace, so he took him out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete0 Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 Surprised this was their first win against a club in the top 4. Moshiri best be on the phone to Howe, and if he can't convince him to come I'd settle for Wilson he won't be there much longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
