Great finish by Tielemens though

Although it does help with modern defenders who twist out the way.

 

[Raven]

Waiting for James to do something dumb now.

[Embattle]

Why are our 2 forwards always coming together, stay fucking apart.

 

[Aoami]

Such bullshit, again. No overwhelming evidence to rule it out, just give the goal.

 

[Scouse]

lol

 

[Embattle]

The result is typifying Chelsea's recent form in the sense they just don't convert and recently have looked tired and not going the extra mile, even worse I can easily see them dropping out of the top 4 and losing the Champions League as well.

 

[Aoami]

Glad Leicester won, obviously, but I'd be fuming if I was a Chelsea fan.

I'm not irritated by the VAR decision, just by what I said before.

I dunno, if you were a Leicester fan though you'd be pretty pissed when they say afterwards it was off-side but they decided not to use VAR.

Isn't that the point of VAR though? To show when its extremely close?

 

[Raven]

His eyelashes were offside...but offside is offside.

 

[Aoami]

Under the current stupid rules. If the player isn't gaining an advantage, it shouldn't be offside imo.

I'd say scoring is a pretty big advantage tbh.

Wow, what a galaxy brain statement.

 

[Raven]

It was great to see fans back at Wembley.

 

[Gwadien]

Wow, what a galaxy brain statement.

Thanks

if wasnt marginal tbh. I have seen a lot closer given.

 

[Aoami]

If they were any closer I'd expect it to be given, because they'd be onside. Less than 2mm in this one, not sure how it can be less marginal.

 

[Aoami]

Thanks

If we are both stood on a line, me running towards to goal, you running away from it, I'd expect to beat you to the goal regardless of whether a shard of my knee bone was 2mm past your foot or not.

Nah the gap i saw on the live cast was about 1/2 to 1 foot.

 

[Raven]

The gap on the VAR pic was literally pubic hair.

Excuse the copy/paste from some random facebook advertising tryhard but it stands up, the guy is an actual legend, compare him to Kane...

I think you were looking at the wrong pictures then. It was less than 2mm and in the frame used, the ball had already left the player who made the passes foot...

 

[Moriath]

theres a gap between the lines.
thats more than 2mm dude. You is deluded

219 goals from 333 games. In an objectively worse team. And seven years younger. I don't really get your point.

The ball has also left the players foot ffs.

Spurs are not an objectively worse team than Leicester. Leicester have won more trophies, but Spurs have finished above Leicester all but twice since Kane has played for them, and got to a Champions League final. I still don't really get the point though to be honest. Kane has also won the golden boot at a world cup (he did absolutely shithouse most of the goals mind)

And he cost... nothing. 2x Golden Boot (maybe 3 at the end of this season), World Cup Dream Team, World Cup Golden Boot, 4x PFA Team of the Year..

Obviously he doesn't have the 2 team trophies that Vardy does but as an individual player there's simply no comparison.

 

[Scouse]

Stop crying @Aoami. VAR is doing it's job.

Funny that you want the offside rule changed to "offside isn't offside".
