What a fantastic start to the second half. Probably the best 15 minutes we've played in years

Another player boots the ball away with no yellow given

How hard is it to just show a proper replay and pause it at the right time? Looks like non-football people directing Robins tv as well

I think slightly off but very close

Very tight but probably just offside to be fair

Very similar red to the Dickie one. Equally ridiculous. Referees shouldn't be trying to send players off as quickly as possible. Just stupid

VAR should have stopped the penalty as well

The fact we're all arguing in this thread rather than watching the world cup final kind of says it all 

I mean we just sold a midfielder for our highest ever transfer received. But ok

The offside goal is a difficult one because people will argue either way and the rules are a mess as to what counts as Intentional or not.

The penalty was a clear dive and I think VAR should be used in cases like that to make a statement that cheating isn't tolerated. I thought that was supposed to be the case now anyway

Probably the worst decision in that game was the red card which was just nonsense. Missing 3 and a half games for that is ridiculous 

Particularly at our level, it's a massive waste of money to have "two number ones" in my view.

Competition for places being that important is a bit of a myth as well imo. Most of the best teams know who their best players are and who's likely to get in the team if everyone's fit

Players don't get better just because there's a copy of them sat on the bench

Squad depth itself is of course important, but having two outstanding players in each position is simply unworkable

Very good performance overall and worthy of the win for me

All of a sudden a really decent start to the season for us..

Haha this ref

Clear penalty imo

Keeps buffering for me..

Shambles as usual

Ooooh we're in

Nothing working for me here in Italy using a web browser

Most of them would have been out of contract and left on a free a while ago

Not if SL had some bollocks about him and kidnapped their loved ones until they signed lifelong contracts

Not sure Mariappa in goal would've helped

Crazy that Bournemouth alone have given us nearly 50 million over the last few years

The thread was outdated

So shit

Brilliant final penalty 

Absolute moron 

Personally I think the reality hit home that we've essentially still got the same group of players that's finished 17th and 14th the last 2 seasons

Some of the younger talents being a year on may be helpful, but the flipside of that is the likes of James, Weimann and King also having another year on the clock

Great game this and just shows the fine margins. Cov hit the bar, 2 mins later Leicester take the lead 

It's not coming off yet but Palmer exactly the sort of player we could've done with yesterday..

Looks threatening from long shots and constantly looking for key through balls going forward
