    He was going wide with the ball and the keeper would have collected it.

    I think I just saw one of the best random falls ever seen on a football pitch just then.

    Im done with offside. I think I'd rather remove the entire law and go back to some bloke just standing on top of the goalkeeper all match at this point. It's absurd.

    Do you reckon Arteta will take up the option on Ceballos?

    I think Bruno Fernandes starts himself the stat-padding gypo. 'Amad' or that Promising Footballer could be racking up the Goals, Skills & Assists.

    Why has this halfwit a) kept Fernandes on and b) now brought Rashford on?

    Yeah I'd walked in as it was happening and misheard the commentary. Not that Fernandes should have started in the first place. But at least he's off now.

    He jumps for the header and then the guy just stands in his path. What's he meant to do once he's in the air (which he has every right to be)?

    Aye, the defender was completely unaware. It makes it so much better.

    It's not like he's stopped him defending the goal.

    Alright, settle down, geezer.

    Not like Brendan to be arrogant but that team selection costing them a spot in Europe is disgraceful.

    If Lindelof had been the one getting kneed in the face it would be because he's been weak and not challenged.

    Fact.

    If you can’t see how running into a player off the ball and kneeing then in the head is a foul im not sure what to do. It’s not the defenders responsibility to move out the way of it ffs.

    The youtube comments for videos of that header are amazing, it's just loads of Americans absolutely raging about how their COLLEGE ATHLETES CAN JUMP THAT HIGH FFS.

    I'm not sure the defender can actually do anything there. He's not winning the header, and you can't even lean into him as he's 17ft in the air. Great header.

    Although there's been better.

    Jared Borgetti wins any best header comp, though Pele's in the 1970 final was pretty tasty for the time.

    I also came here to remind people that Borgetti is the header king. The one against Italy(?) with the 180 turn is my favourite.

    What the fuck was that freekick business all about? And since when was it 'the rule' that if the whistle goes before the ball is in the net then the goal is disallowed? Doesn't it somewhat depend on what on earth the whistle is being blown for?

    Brighton are laughably bad at the actual business of football.

    Commentators on every single one of our games: (some variation of) “Brighton are a great side.”

    ... until it comes to scoring. They never finish the sentence.

    So bad.

    Brighton are rank. Thanks god they won those games a few weeks ago, god knows how.

    You have to wonder how Targett gets away with that on Bamford, he's just wrestling him to the ground.

    Smith finally realising Ross Barkley is a lazy waste of space, reintroducing some energy to midfield, and we win. He's all yours, Jim.

    It was mental when Barkley came back from his injury and just got launched straight back in, despite el ghazi having been in incredible form beforehand.

    El ghazi is a legitimate decent player.
