I’d sell him if he’s making mistakes like that so early in his development imagine what he be like when he’s older 🤔

grey_til_I_dye

He'll end up like Terry, making an 'uncharacteristic' error every game...

Who plays in this year's charity shield as Man City won the League and the FA cup

Hamstew

League runner up I think. So Liverpool

They have such a good squad they could play against themselves.

Mrs Grey that's exactly what I thought, and it would be a good game

Kompany to Anderlecht as player manager isn’t what I was expecting to hear today

Some significant rule changes for next season in the PL...

Interesting stuff especially regarding freekicks and substitutions

Vorselaarhammer

Yeah, I think they will certainly change the match, all can have an impact..

Counting down the clock with subs which can take about a 1 min per sub..

thornburyiron

One proposed change which doesn’t appear to have been approved is regarding penalties in that if the kick is saved or hits the woodwork then play is dead as in shootouts.

This is pretty poor in my mind, maybe not as violent as the other fella but he invaded the pitch and admitted assualting a player.

At first, he even denied assault so hardly contrite about it.

A fine of £235 plus £100 compensation, 120 hours unpaid work, (I assume community service) and just a 4 year football ban.

Does that really rank as a deterrent???, his newly acquired criminal record may have an effect but I am not sure the Neanderthals reading this will take that into account.

Mostly agree with these although I am not sure what the issue is with keepers touching their goal posts in prepping for a penalty, apart from watching the keepers feet, I also hope officials are more strict with players encroaching into the area as a penalty is taken.

alderz

Chicago,

I’d imagine that would a VAR call?

I glanced at your comment and thought for a split second it said 'regarding freckles'. :nonono:

Hamstew

The freckles rule is a game changer

Moojor

It's going to be hard to spot though.

BubblesNeverDies

Or reckless freckles.

Unless there is a mole in the camp

Moojor

What if it's all a pigment of imagination from the ref!

BubblesNeverDies

A pox on those refs for being so measly, they give me the right mump.
:biggrin: :yercoat:

Expat_Hammer

Nothing like the games I used to play on acne marshes

Moojor

More bad press for the club

I saw that earlier alderz. I just can't believe for a second that we're the only club to have thrown things, particularly given their rivalries with City and Liverpool, and yet we're the only team mentioned.
