HMFC01 Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 Looks like Southampton getting another wind. They have certainly established themselves as quality contenders for premiership status. They have a good group of players throughout the squad to compete against any club in prem. Won't be long before some of their players get scouted(again!).

HMFC01 Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 (edited) Robin olsen in for pickford today for Everton. Debut for the goalie. Looks like a packed midfield for Everton, fairly defensive. Will no doubt change it in the second half. Not much pace on the wings I think, mostly through the center.

Dusk_Till_Dawn Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 Everton’s title bid was exciting while it lasted. As someone once said, seeing them at the top of the table is like seeing an elephant at the top of a tree. You’ve no idea how it got there but you know it won’t be there for long.

HMFC01 Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 (edited) I noticed Everton play the diamond formation today as is man utd currently. I wonder how many other clubs are using the same formation. I haven't noticed any yet that can recall. It's not the same as the diamond with wingers or wingbacks, just midfielders. I think Barcelona tried few seasons back with Messi and suarez up top. Was thinking if irving could get back into the hearts team we could try a similar formation. Haring or Haliday as the anchor. Lee on right irving left, walker the top of the diamond or Naisy. Most of the play goes through the middle but the full backs get forward and help get crosses in or just stretch the game. So far Everton lost 2-1 and I suspect man United might draw or lose, so it's not considered too successful a formation so far ☺ I would not mind us trying it though at our level. Would not just benefit irving, Wighton could support Boyce up top. Hmm, looks like they've switched to 4-2-3-1 now. Confusing. Man utd that is.

HMFC01 Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 (edited) Arsenal should be winning this. Hold up, a sub, another midfielder 🤣. They could do with some wingers. Get pogba off.

The ref didn’t seem to notice it was Hojbjerg that made the contact with the ball and decided it was the tackler. The ref has been pretty useless the whole game and I’m really not sure how the hell the VAR awarded the Spurs penalty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am still having issues with that jump-land-kick style one, Fernandes and the Chelsea player do. Suppose part of it is entertainment.

Placing hands behind your back is not natural and humans use their arms for balance in case they seem to have forgotten this Just like offside which should be based on the feet only making it simpler for all..if your foot is ahead of the defender then offside, if not then not offside PS it has been a very good first half of football Edited November 8, 2020 by CJGJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VAR is a tool intended to take the subjectivity away from decisions. You cannot do VAR and have unclear rules whereby the officials get to make a discretionary call. VAR is a tool to help officials not make mistakes. Take away the possibility of error but leave discretion, and the only thing left is bias... This is why the OF and SFA aren't too keen on VAR - not because of money! The OF will make a little noise about VAR when it suits them and they feel wronged, but the real aim is to bank a bit of favour for next time...

Yeah, offside should be clear, but again the rules are making a dogs dinner of that. Handball will never be 100% clear but the new rules are ridiculous and making it more difficult.

Head needs to be offside as well for example. The interference rule needs changed as well imo, anyone in the box -- offside for me whether touching the ball or not.
