Jakubclaret

My point is that he has the potential to be. Of course not now after so few games but had he played all season at the level he’s played in his last games, plus another season on top, I think teams would start seeing him in that bracket given his distribution - there’s not many as good. Some of the ...

Try this Jakub:
A)We are winning = 3pts
B)We stop winning (draw) =1pt
Deduct B from A = ?

I know what you are saying I'm going full bloodied with the way I'm looking at it I'm not considering the draw as a fallback default position.

Jakubclaret

I think we’ve found the individual who decides how many points teams get deducted, people. Or simply doing basic artithmetics. I don't subscribe to the logic that because we was in a advantageous position prior to something avoidable happening we have to settle for a draw when 3pts would have been ...

Jakubclaret

So we were beating Brighton (3 points) before Muric’s error converted that to 1. And we were drawing with Everton (1 point) before Muric’s error converted that to 0. And you think he cost us 4 points? Get the abacus out Jakub. Boatsheds figured it out It's freezing things before the errors occured....

Check your calculator ain’t broken, Jakub.

We took a point from those games, sooooo

It's the state of play where we was before the errors occurred that's accountable. It's not error mitigation that we scored before conceding against Brighton.

Jakubclaret

Whilst I think you’re of course working in hindsight, I think if we start the season with the option of either Onana in goals for BFC or Muric, Onana is the choice all day long. As it stands Onana has had a mixed season with some highs and lows (strangely as most GK’s in the top teams have had this...

Jakubclaret

Usually doesn’t. My point was that had we not signed Trafford we’d likely now be £14m richer, sat pretty comfortably with another year of prem money secured and have a much higher valued asset in Muric. More than £10m anyway, not my £50m as that’s a ceiling vs a current valuation. Alan must be pret...

Jakubclaret

I fully believe that’s the kind of potential he has. I would not swap him for Onana, who cost £47.5m, for example. I think he’s better. I’m not saying that’s his value today, but Christ on a bike if we sold him for £10m in my view it would be a huge undervaluation of a special talent. Not to mentio...

Jakubclaret

Muric is a £50million+ goalkeeper. He'd be at home at any of the top teams in the world. Sadly I think he'll be sold and sadly I think it'll be on the cheap. Jesus that's a fair jump every football internet valuation site I've come across as him at around £7million no more than £10million which I t...

Your mum dovetails in.

Constructive & classy I like it.

Jakubclaret

If you want that than we'll need a re-write of the rules to make a specific scenario for a keeper punching the ball because as the current rules are written you would have to interpret that the keeper challenging for the ball by trying to punch it is either seen as endangering players safety or usi...

Jakubclaret

I'm in agreement with this. Full force of the keeper flying through a players head/neck. It's 100 percent dangerous, arguably more so than a tackle that might result in a broken ankle/leg. Doesn't happen very often but this must be the 3rd time I've seen him do it this year- it's not somthing he sh...

Jakubclaret

I hope he's not been banned. He was wrong quite a lot, but never abusive or trolling, in fact quite often he was the target. Unless he's been banned because he doesn't know the difference between there, their and they're, in which case I fully support the decision. He fought his own corner resolute...

Apparently lots of murmurs suggesting they are getting 2 points back .. that is basically enough to keep them in premier league

Get ready for the ramipril overload on here if that happens

Jakubclaret

Unless you want to ban keepers from punching the ball you’ve got to accept that things like that will happen and aren’t sendings off. By its very nature punching the ball away is always likely to be at head height in proximity to an attacking player and is therefore, just by being a legal part of t...

Great post, apart from the fact that he does have previous and he did get away with it.

You'll have to name me 1 goalkeeper who doesn't claim aerial balls into the box without accidentally colliding/punching opposition players because I can't think of 1.

But he does have previous.

He isn't known as a out & out dirty goalkeeper. Some are desperate yet again such is the consistent theme to play the hard done to card.

Like I said it's that accepted if I type it out on my keyboard it's recognized as first choice if I wanted to spell the other way I have to dismiss that & select the other spelling.

Jakubclaret

When you take onto account the fact that the ball had long gone, this was late, intentional and a red card offence. It was not a case of hands, small and player trying head the ball, all in the moment, which is the usual circumstance. Why would onana intentionally take out 1 of our players & risk g...

Jakubclaret

Another thing to consider is would Sheffield united prefer us or nottingham or luton in the championship alongside them. It's not a east Midlands derby as such like county would be but geographically there's only 30 odd miles between the 2 & some supporters will overlap between the counties whether ...

Jakubclaret

Again, it’s irrelevant what the benefit to Burnley would have been. Although playing against 10 men for 8-9 minutes may have given us a better chance of winning the game. Nobody is nit-picking, just pointing out that by the laws of the game Onana’s foul was obviously a red card offence, regardless ...

Jakubclaret

Well you’re wrong because intent doesn’t even come into it. Whether or not a replacement keeper would have saved the penalty is irrelevant. It's no benefit to us had onana been sent off luton or forest won't play United again this season. I've noticed on here some people seem to over analyze the ru...

:roll: We don’t know what went through the referee’s head - but if it was anything to do with Obama’s intent then the referee was wrong.

City keeper just did similar to Boly. No foul given

Ederson floored mateta in the 2-2 draw leading to the equalizer penalty it doesn't always have to be a sending off.

Jakubclaret

A player doesn’t have to intentionally endanger the safety of an opponent for it to be a red card offence. It's obviously subject to the referees interpretation otherwise he would have had an early bath. The fact that it wasn't interpreted as being intentionally reckless was a factor for him remain...

There’s definitely an argument that a keeper going to punch the ball and landing one flat in a player’s face is endangering the safety of an opponent though, which is a sending off offence.

If the intents there & it's malicious maybe. That was just a calamity cock up.

Correct. If only our inspector clouseau manager would have realized that sooner.

Kormas not commas. Hardly any similarities between the 2! You need to research about curries & indian cuisine generally speaking & kormas aren't always mild you can add as much spice/kick into any particular dish to make it as hot as you wish.

Fair point. I was accounting for them having some intelligence, but you’re right that’s an incorrect and unrealistic assumption.

Yes, I think they’re an example of one club that was funded by their owner (well done on the spelling, I didn’t even dare attempt).

I agree he just doesn't help himself.

If the players didn't like it it will. If he doesn't get some results quickly he could be in big trouble.

Nobody better than SD they could attract not in light of their troubles & current position they need to be grateful they've got him could do hell of a lot worse.
