So, if GLT didn’t work, where was VAR? Why wasn’t it challenged?

We need the technology to get these things right, the games too big not to.

Fucking hell.  Nyland was holding that ball in Row AA of the Holte.

Not a bad half but warning signs in last 15 minutes of what Sheffield United are good at.

Need the manager to step up in second half and help the players e.g. don't keep McGinn on until his leg is nearly hanging off. Samatta on within 10 minutes seems logical aswell as he'd surely put away that Davis chance.

Got away with one on technology grounds there I think.

Davis, Douglas and El Ghazi have been purposeful.

Mings has been poor. Hawse terrifies me.

Change things up please Dean. You’ve got 5 rolls of the dice don’t forget.

Davis on his own doesn't work.

I thought that maybe the ball had been in contact with the post at all times and therefore not completely behind the line.

However, the replay clearly showed that the ball was way over :)

Lucky not to be a goal down there.  Davis is a battering ram and nothing else.  We look toothless. We need Grealish and SJM in the game more. We have looked fairly comfortable at the back, apart from the fuck up from Nyland.

Never a goal.

😬


I actually thought the majority of the ball crossed the line but not all of the ball. However that picture clearly shows the whole of the ball was over the line.

If the ball is touching the post, does that count as the line?
