Its qualified referees interpreting a decision using rules that omit bias. Several posters above your post have differing views. I see a foul on the PNE player.

If you are interested in referees views the incident is discussed on the referees site refs chat. The full house is so far is no foul. PNE -BCFC | RefChat - The Refereeing Forum

It is not defenders responsibilty to alter his path. Semenyo has to run around him and fails to do so.

The opponent does not have to concede space there as he is in playable distance of the ball. Semenyo can't play the ball into the opponents path and then clip his opponent to gain a penalty.

The following is part of a pro coach goal keeper assessment. Goalkeeper qualities Tactical Interventions outside the box Building attacks. Resetting possession. Understanding of team shape Technical Catching and punching crosses Distribution skills Shot stopping Physical Agility Reflexes Strong Psychological Communicates Concentration Confident Dominant Mentally tough - Recovers from mistakes The qualities vary depending on team approach and its formations - Playing with the feet can be up to 60%+ of a keepers game, shot stopping less than 10%.

If you want to use technical terms that is hybrid (zonal and man marking) defending, and a four (four zonal) and (five man marking/blocking). The sixth player is guarding teams going short, but it is still four and five. I dont watch enough of City to comment, but an answer can be have they altered the four to five thus lacking blockers and teams then attack an area they can overload to create freerer runners to attack balls and mismatches too close to goal.

I had no crystal ball. I reiterated what coaches had told me. I was posting about a dumbing down of the academy and a lack of joined up thinking. I formerly posted that Tinnion was in danger of leaving the club, and that coaches were unhappy with how homegrown talent was being overlooked. Days later the same appeared in the Bristol post. I didn't make it up, the Bristol post didn't either, it was what was being said within the FC. Coaches were utterly exasperated by seeing dross being paid handsomely to do what youngsters here could do as well and better. Young players get damaged that way because they are denied opportunity and experience. The later elevation of Brian Tinnions role and influence is helping create the success of promoting promising players. City finances lead to a position of highlighting we always had talent in the building v the consistent buying in of the not very good.

I played with Paul Rose briefly. Aggressive, good in the air and vocal. His hair didn't compliment hard.

A reason is regional coverage. Other clubs coach more kids and have more coaches and scouts. Exeter have a regional network of development centres. Bristol City have/had two. Exeter have a broader contact with more talent. Cat 1 v 2 can be an argument of what the club provides. Parents heads can be swayed and reasonably so by a club offering private schooling - Southampton as a cat 1 academy do this BCFC do not. However cat 1v 2 v 3 also can mean extra coaching 1 -1 hours. Its part of the criteria, it does not have to be set in stone. A cat 3 academy can provide the same 1-1 coaching. The posters main point about soaking up the South West is valid. Bristol City is not doing this because it needs to sharpen up its act to do so. Its coverage, involvement and contact with grass roots football and talent outside of Bristol is sparse.

Interesting club Paulton. They have created a broad youth set up and this season saw a sixteen year old from their development centre playing in the first team. Its not perfect or exact but some of their youth teams are very confident on the ball and looking to constantly play. That sort of football appears to be their long term goal, a non league modernist Paulton way of playing. Paulton v Frome new years day I think.

Breaking the game down into tasks improves focus. Our brains focus improves as it recognises rehearsed and repititious patterns. Trigger words spark physical and mental response. We can train the brain to unclutter the pre frontal cortex, which improves focus.

Highest education level One in 10 (10%) adults educated below degree level reported vaccine hesitancy. This was slightly higher than the rates of vaccine hesitancy for adults educated at degree level or equivalent, adults with "other" qualifications or no qualifications (8%, 7% and 7% respectively). You are arguing about a %. The underlined figure is those with no qualifications. I made no point about bigotry.

I answered. Here is the data. Coronavirus and vaccine hesitancy, Great Britain - Office for National Statistics (ons.gov.uk) The least educated (no qualifications) had a lower rate of vaccine hesistancy than people with degrees. There is further data from differing timescales but it doesnt break down groups using education as a measurement. Coronavirus and vaccine hesitancy, Great Britain - Office for National Statistics (ons.gov.uk)

Is there? Vaccine hesitancy across groups with degrees was 8%. It was lower amongst the populace with no qualifcations at all at 7%.

Because his position alters. If he stays with the defending principle of face up and ball and man he can then impede the player more efficiently.

A technical point was made. Citys player does not look at the ball. The offending defending ignores the basic defensive triangle principle. If you cannot see both ball and man you cannot defend them. Its a penalty.

I reckon he had not heard of a lot of things till he got to Sporting Lisbon then Man Utd. And what you are highlighting is a psychological growth mindset. Endless training can be ineffectual. What Ronaldo was introduced to at Sporting Lisbon and Man Utd is deliberate practice. Its whys and how skill is internalised and produced on demand is psychological. What sets Ronaldo apart is his mindset. He is blessed physically as are millions of people but his psychological aptitude to practice and preparation is exceptional. In regards to his free kick yes, he used visualisation. He uses a routine. Steps, scan, ball position were used to cut out noise and doubt, but also to control his mind and breathing. He would visualise the task right down to striking the ball with the medial cuneiform just below the centre of the ball, how the strike felt and how success felt. That was couple with the deliberate intense physical practice over and over. It could also explain why since 2014 his success has dropped down to 5% from 16% pre-2014. His technique, the velocity of strike, angle etc appears not have changed so maybe his superhuman mindset has allowed human negative doubt to creep in.

Ronaldo uses visualisation techniques. He uses mental process as a routine including visualisation with his free kick taking.

Yes. If you do not adopt a growth mindset (Beswick uses the term) you will not improve. We choose to fight or freeze or flight. We choose to word hard, or not. Mental drives physical. Physical doesn't drive mental.

Childrens brains are not more aware of things these days. The brains development has not altered. It is a reason kids should not be exposed to complex issues. Psychologically they do not possess the comprehension skills to deal with complexity. Children should be allowed to be kids.

It was an example of a differing view and a relevant answer to your point. A poster asserted the words All Lives Matter can have a non literal undeniably racist meaning due to what occurs four thousand miles away. Within this thread you take exception to a multi racial group displaying banner displaying that phrase. You used the I'm not racist trope. You feel the phrase All Lives Matter is provocative. Others clearly have a differing views that it is not racist -. All Lives Matter can mean All Lives Matter. Again you tie yourself in knots. At no point have I said that. I see double standards. The scrutiny applied to the words All Lives Matter on a banner is an example.

To other individuals. Which is a reality isn't it? You are tieing yourself in knots. Another individual stated the slogan was undeniably racist. I disagree and so do others = It can mean something very different.

What else does the word privilege mean? Clearly those who have compiled dictionaries were not best placed to explain the real meaning of the word.

Because what occurs here shapes our communication, our lives and experiences. Our experiences and world view can alter with our postcode. Somebody living in BS8 V BS13 can see things differently. The poster was suggesting the alien, something from four thousand miles away shapes how somebody coming from a working-class area in Bristol should think. The taking the of knee. It is alien to the UK. It is imported. I have stated that it represents differing things to differing people. Not one thing, only one interpretation, one rule.

England should be keeping the ball and resetting it. Building from the back has progressed the team. The personnell last night lead to slow play. Rice is no pivot and Mings lacks range. Where is the distributor? The outcome was predictable. The patterns predictable up back across etc. In regards to allowing the opposition to set up. Hungary were not rigid they slid and screened following the possesion. Grealish dribbling horizontally in the second third and taking multiple touches made it easier for the opposition to screen in lines. It was not fast and direct its was slow and indirect. Playing one two touch would speed patterns up. I would have kept him on but his withdrawal had some merit behind it.
