squad players don't play together as we use the first team squad/reserve system so a team of squad players is going to struggle only natural el zhar looked good insua looked good we did see what happens when we we have two full backs bombing forward as people on here have been calling for
Three challenges of a referee decision per team per match allowed - use tv evidence say bolton go down by one/three points what will this decision cost them
it was a goal based on way rules are set out if it was properly disallowed then every player who is offside when a free is hit should be ruled as offside there needs to be an american football challenge system introduced with tv evidence too much can rest on this everton penalty decision last week was even if you hate the bitters a disgraceful decision too mistakes are not part of the game and don't even themselves out
when tv on demand over internet takes off and clubs can sell games themselves then the big clubs can in theory at least bring in large amounts of revenue £10 a game sold across the world to 10,000,000 people 100,000,000 per game
interesting that all the money is now centralised in england though uefa will not allow champions league to turn into a glory run for english clubs great for city fans and if we get dubai in then great for us but ultimately will be a case of transfer fees getting higher and players getting paid more and will be more of the same provided you have a billionaire owner football in danger of becoming a play thing though. uefa i think will try and introduce salary caps along lines of nfl.
dd is a formality i would imagine worth 850 billion whats worst case scenario wonder how long hughes will last before they appoint a world name to attract top class players
i thought we played well today. both teams cancelled each other out. two away games and one home and seven points which is as good as anybody else masch is back and defence looked much more assured today keane showed touches of what he can do eg reverse pass to n'gog n'gog looks like he has real potential young players look promising - babel, n'gog, plessis, el zhar will take us time to bed down the system gerrard was injured and will come back stronger after op we lack adventure and guile going forward at times but that should come as season progresses.
I remember years ago when parts of the world still had black and white tvs that kits had to be distinguishable in black and white nowadays do referees like a contrast between socks to assist decisions dunno
who cares what they say i think every club thinks there is a bias against them the laziness of their opinions annoys me though because they are paid to give informed analysis and trot out misconceived ideas and cliches all the time things like gerrard in the centre, rotation, zonal marking rafa is being cautious playing 4-3-3!!!!
