We can still mathematically finish on sixty-nine points, I call that in our own hands. I call that pie in the sky Mike, so much so I will give you 25/1 that we don't even finish on 57 or above minimum bet £50.00 max £100.00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually see both sides of it. The rule is that if you're falling and plant your arm (as you would if you're falling), it's not a penalty. But, Soucek clearly denied a goal-scoring opportunity by doing so. VAR is perpetually broken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VAR is perpetually broken. I think the key point is that Soucek deliberately went down, rather than the normal understanding of “falling.” He deliberately went down and deliberately deflected the ball. I’ll be surprised if any commentator, after noting the rule you cite, doesn’t go on to say, “But he wasn’t really falling, so it’s a clear handball.” I don’t care one whit that Chelsea didn’t get the 3 points, but I care that WHam got a point. dunlopp9987 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dyche team that beat Arsenal stay up comfortably. Sure but how many times have we said that in the past after a good performance. And then we go out and look like shit for the following 4 games. Don't get me wrong, I am loving the good vibes around the team with Dyche in charge. But we've just seen it too many times to count where it doesn't last. So until we can pull ourselves comfortably clear, I'm going to continue to closely monitor the teams around us.

Dyche has been saying what a few of us have been saying; we've got some very good players and a good squad that just need some belief. He will add structure too. I'm still not remotely worried because of how he is. If Frank was here without a striker brought in I'd be nervous too but the situation changed with a seasoned and disciplined manager being brought in.

It's not HIS anything that I'm worried about. His tactics and team selection could be masterful. We are still relying on a bunch of maddeningly inconsistent players to apply themselves.

I believe Lampard was always going to struggle in this job, he never had the experience as a coach to take on such a huge job that required someone with the hard years in management. I've mentioned in the past that good players aren't a recipe for good managers. The difference Dyche offers is years of experience and ups and downs, and learning his craft the hard way from working under managers and building his way up from the bottom, there won't be many situations and surprises that Dyche hasn't faced before with us, which has given him the confidence and experience to deal with, and the same couldn't be said of Lampard who was still very much in his apprenticeship as a manager, and never put in the hard years of coaching before taking his first managerial post, in fact he never did a day coaching under another manager. For me always destined to struggle and fail. Gwlad and Matt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
