English Premier League 2023-24 Thread - Page 60 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

What is weird about the United situation is that they have backed TH with transfers he wanted. I get the nostalgic Glazer hate as they take money out the club etc etc. But it's getting a bit lazy.

Onana 50mill
Mount 65
Hojlund 75
Casemiro 70
Lisandro Martinez 55
Antony 100

How is that not backing the manager? He is getting his old pals fat stacks of cash and they are not cutting it at this level.

Casemiro an exception and I rated Mount quite a bit at Chelsea.

This. It's also a nice rebuttal to the FSG out crowd, who instead of donking hundreds of millions on people the internet likes like Chelsea or United, they do actual smart business, identify their top targets and wait to get them instead of compromising for Sancho's

Burnley keeper booked for time-wasting after 10min

Had to double check Sean Dyche didn't take back the team

Commentators saying a warning would've been better.
Pretty sure all goalkeepers have had warning enough so far this season.

If Forest were to get aggrieved with no card, they can probably just go for a forearm smash on the keeper leaving him needing stitches. Seems to work for some teams and you don't even get booked for it

Fun as Forest are going forward, they are terrible at the back.
Reminds me very much of us.

2 minutes added time doesn't seem very consistent with a booking for timewasting.

Unknown child winger forcing the world cup winning full back to be substituted isn't something I expected to see tonight.

Pretty good equaliser. We were never keeping a clean sheet.

Thought the handball had to directly lead to the goal, i.e be by the goalscorer. Or has that changed?

Edit: nevermind, seems thats for accidental handball and they deemed this one to be deliberate.

Thatx if its not deemed to be deliberate.

Forest's goal was just as much of a handball

If he was wearing a long sleeved shirt, would he have got away with that?

Good game and good result against 12 men. Feel a lot less worried after that performance.

Really? It seemed nailed on from what I saw. No way to claim it wasn’t intentional. That can’t be tolerated without pretty severe punishment.
