PGMOL doing more to fix our set piece issues than the coaching staff, bless them.
Maybe I only saw his off games then, as that isn't the impression I got watching him.
Ben White, your time is up you big nonce.
Indeed would have been done by now if there was any indication he wanted to come
I’ve also got to put Vicario in my fantasy football team now.
Backdate it to last year and we’d be in the Champions League.
I'm pretty sure we were the only club that wrote to PGMOL requesting clarification of this last season. So it's basically an admission that we got screwed.
Frustrating yet predictable.
Fuck us up then change how they apply the rules.
Cunts is the only word to describe this fuckery
The annoying thing is, they didn’t sit in a room last year and say we aren’t going to blow for obstruction, they just didn’t penalise it. I also hated the narrative set by the Neville cartel of ”he should be stronger“ when Vic was so blantantly obstructed. Fairly sure this was him trying to validate Onana nearly decapitating a player in their first game of the season vs Wolves and it wasn’t given a pen and they went on to win the game.
I'm still not entirely sure how to interpret that punditry: were they simply being moronic or making a more calculated signal to opposition teams to bully Vicario while the going was good?
Maybe a bit of both.

Brighton are bringing in another winger after buying Minteh and Gruda, maybe they really are selling Adingra.
Damn you're right, still it's interesting that they're spending so much money all of the sudden, wouldn't surprise me if they have outgoings ready to go.
Even so I thought we were so naive to keep allowing the blocking and fouling of Vicario to continue. Eventually we tried putting someone between Vic and the opposing louse allocated to blocking him. We could have done the same to teach opponents a lesson but hardly ever did I see us do this.
These Dutch cheeses are lovely
I think we could have done more, but I also think the punditry did their (intended) job to get in the brains of refs and give Vic a reputation for just 'being soft'. There were other matches where identical bullying of the keeper got blown up, but never for us.
