No tracking back, can’t tackle and minimal effort. General view in the stand was not positive
He walks around as if he has a smell under his nose. He's right it's his attitude, it stinks.
 


Shout out for Estupian today. Not been good enough frequently this season. Was very good today. Another one of those players - and we have a few - where it’s hard to decide definitely whether they will or should be a big part of the first team going forward

Listening to the radio in the car on the way home, pundits reckoned they got both decisions wrong. Goal should have counted and it should have been a red.
Having seen it on MOTD the goal decision was correct. But how the ref says that "an attempt to play the ball or a challenge for the ball" was made for the penalty I don't know. Should have been.red card according to the laws.

Nice to get a win like that even if not completely deserved. Wieffer and Gruda will have gained confidence.

Can we please sign a left back like Ait-Nouri. He was superb yesterday.

My view at the game was a player that every time he went forward kept throwing his arms up when Wolves lost the ball.
No thanks, he would stink the club out if he came here!

Specifically “the offender is cautioned if the offence was an attempt to play the ball or a challenge for the ball”.

Outside the box, it would be a free-kick and a red card. Inside the box, the “double jeopardy” application applies due to the tackle he made being conceivably a feasible attempt at playing the ball.

If he’d pushed him over, it would’ve been a red, because you can’t make a legal tackle by pushing someone from behind with your hands.

And this law will be exactly the same next time this happens, and the next time, and the time after that.
MOTD were clear that his tackle was nowhere near the ball (knee high while the ball was on the ground) and it should have been a red card.
