Decision was upheld so VAR didn’t think it was a clear and obvious error. Might’ve been you but whoever said it was an accumulation type of foul is probably right. Looks soft in isolation but I suppose they can be given. But if you give them once then give them every time. I just want consistency and decisions given that are within the laws and within the spirit of the laws. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember that Fox only showed two angles in the process, so maybe VAR had (not saying absolutely but maybe just maybe) a different angle that showed something happened more clearly. Based on the Fox broadcast, it looked clear that the ref screwed up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewConvert Posted November 23, 2019 Report Share Posted November 23, 2019 City have conceded 11 goals thus far. The general opinion is that most have been conceded down the left side which is Jamieson's turf. So the question is whether anyone has been keeping stats where those goals have been conceded from open play? It would be interesting to know whether this is indeed the case. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing shits me more when we seem to be breaking away and Jamo unleashes a 50 yard pass to 1 v 3 and its not even to the player or in the players path.

The only problem I have is that you see that jostling many many times a game and its not always given. Anyway, the ref has given it and VAR has said all clear so that's the end of the story Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belaguttman Posted November 23, 2019 Report Share Posted November 23, 2019 Rather than making this a 'pick on Jamo' thread, every tactical decision is always a compromise, with risks. As well as liking to see him improve his positioning, I'd like to see the inverted winger role change sides during games, just to keep the opposition guessing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair to both our FBs, they are playing an important role in a new system to them, it'll take some time. In the meantime, I'd be mixing it up just to make us harder to attack in transition 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when the ball goes through the right and Galloway pushes up and attacks, and overlaps down wing. Jamo still comes inside and we are left with a back 2 of sorts and when there is a turnover its very dangerous. There needs to be more of a balance 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
