Do you know the official size of the pitch ?
I have searched and i got different answers :
-14. Liverpool, Anfield, 110 x 75 yards, 8250 ( https://worldsoccertalk.com/2007/10/22/top-20-biggest-pitches-in-the-premier-league/ )
-Anfield – 100 yards by 74 yards (101m x 68m)
Camp Nou – 114 yards...
Not all ball hitting hands are handball. The defender isn't doing anything wrong in the first picture. He is very close and the guy hits his hand (which is along his body) with the ball from a very short distance.
In the second picture, i would have given penalty if it wasn't a ball deflected...
The first too are not penalty. Not enough distance for picture 1. And a deflection for picture 2.
The last one could be a penalty since Mané makes that push movement. But to be honest, it wasn't big enough of a push for falling or losing the ball control imo. Could be allowed for the gesture...
Joke aside, this Ajax team is also very generous in efforts. And from every players, be it defenders or forwards. On top of their quality, i think it is the reason they have been so good in Europe those last 2 years. When they attack they have 5-6 players there. The midfielders are following the...
It is a different scenario though.
In this game, City had to win as they are behind in the league. Thus they have to create and attack.
In CL, you had a 3 goals lead and it affects your approach. Remember Real won at Juventus 3-0 and was shit at home and conceded 3 times too before a last...
Ofc you are right. One year before leaving, Neymar had already prepared his move to PSG.
Even Goal had made a paper about the fact Neymar had asked for his clause to be "only" increased to 222 M from the 180 M of his previous contract in order to leave to PSG. And that paper was written 1 year...
Think some teams have maybe underestimated him.
PSG really wanted him but Monaco opposed the transfer.
Before that, he was doing lip service to MU and they doubted his quality and didn't buy him.
Finally, Monaco explained that the transfer to Liverpool went very fast and smoothly.
He didn't...
Cavani was known for his fitness. Never injured until recently.
But you catch my drift. Messi can't run all the game to keep some freshness to be able to score and be efficient offensively. The Liverpool players seem to never need to keep their energy.
Their bad injury luck went on substitutes...
Man, it is not always a matter of staff or professionalism.
Everyone will say Cavani is a model in training and he doesn't have a "party" life. The guy goes back to Uruguay during his holidays to go fishing. And the guy has pulled his muscle by shooting the ball and was out for 1 month. It is...
Yeah, i don't understand that.
This season at PSG, we have Neymar, Mbappé, Cavani, Icardi, Kehrer, Meunier, Dagba, Draxler etc. injured. But Liverpool has almost 0 injury. And they are not slowing down. WTF is this ?
Not true.
City is very vulnerable in Europe as their defence is not good enough. City always lose somehow in Europe like PSG.
Liverpool is a different animal in Europe but even them are shaky away from home.
In short: Site has been functioning great and chat add-on (which is also paid) is also holding up. No crashes in recent year.
Having said that, forum itself barely makes anything through adsense. 15USD per month is pathetic and not enough for up-keep.
And if we can cover the server ourselves I would best take ads altogether.
Price of the hosting company went up significantly and I would appreciate donations: It's time to cover the server for the next 6 months.
