That Cole play deserved to into the back of the net. 😕 

yes, and I had called it a couple minutes before that, so GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

[Magic Lamps 11,692]

Well If that’s a foul then we can as well play feather ball 

only a foul when it s a Chelsea player. We get special rules from var 

ridiculous call but I was 100% sure it would be ruled out when I saw Badi nudging and never celebrated the goal

palmer should have scored or squared the instant before obviously. That was the moment to win it

[cosmicway 1,333]

F*ck.
Two goals disallowed I don't know why.
Never watch var replays, they are breaking my nerves - I go to the other room.
We did n't lose because Villa are a poor side.
For a team occupying fourth place in the table they are a poor side.
They might as well go down to Olympiakos next Thursday.

[Vesper 30,219]

if we can beat spuds

we have a more than decent shot at winning out

[Vesper 30,219]

we owe Brighton a proper hiding, on so many levels

The less said about VAR, the better.

English var has become a joke.
Everyone else has learned it except in England.
I watch tons of matches.

His body movement looked right to square dunno what happened. Maybe he was too close to the football and/or mishit it.

Palmer was screened by a defender on his right hand side so he decided to take the shot early.

Can understand why they disallowed it for the foul, trouble is, in most, that happens in every box during most corners. In most goals on set pieces you'll find someone fouling someone somewhere in each slow replay.

Good performance, I'd of taken a draw pre match. Shame we haven't got a LW youngster to sub off Murdryk earlier.

those 4 points dropped v Sheff U and Burnley will end up costing us Europa League

tbh, the way Caicedo plays without Enzo, Enzo may, may end up being the worse buy

they play so poorly together, and Enzo is the type who needs a monster cast around him to shine

[Vesper 30,219]

Caicedo was MOTM today, btw

[robsblubot 3,595]

I think the push was just too obvious to not get called. It was also in the back of the player and at the exact moment just before the bounce, which is when  the football is to be disputed.

looked like a foul to me.

TBF he was excellent today

We were robbed. How the hell they saw enough in that to overturn the original decision is ridiculous. Anyway proud of the team. Honestly was expecting a battering with the team we had out and the lack of experience on bench. Madueke was my MOTM. He terrorised Digne all game. Caicedo was excellent second half. Gallagher top performance too but I felt the pundits didn't give Madueke enough credit. He was sensational. Hopefully he can do the same against Spurs on Thursday night.

If that's a foul then this game is dead, that shit happens every time the ball is in the air, nowadays if your stronger you foul players it's ridiculous, now I know why they call it player of the match instead of man of the match, pathetic

Pushing, body against body.. First one was ok, this one I don't understand.

Still think its a foul. Would be wanting a foul for us if it were roles reversed so probably correct call.

Think pushes right into the back like that are usually called tho.

it is certainly different now than it was decade or 2 ago. Lots more fouls are called in 50/50 disputes.
