It seems utterly weird that Chelsea think they need another winger in Gnacho with what they already have ... leave aside the PSR / CSR issues
They do only have Gittens on that side now. Sancho went back, George is going to be sold, Mudryk banned, Madueke sold.
Well, Neto played in the left earlier.

If it wasn't for the Villa, I'd be done with football. Ruined.
Same here. It's bent as a corkscrew now.

The handball for the penalty was as blatant as you’ll get...
... other than the short distance between Chalobah and Sessegnon.

Under today's rules, it's a pen.

The Pedro hand ball doesn't directly lead to a goal, so it's not hand ball. Even though he effectively passes the ball to another Chelsea player when doing so.

Without the help from the officials, Chelsea really aren't that much.
They just make it up as they go tbh. The Fulham 'foul' lol was 65yds away from goal, not directly leading to the goal as other players were involved in both halves of the pitch, but still got disallowed and Pedro handled a few seconds before the 'pen' .

I am increasingly the same with other games. I only see MOTD highlights if we don’t lose but rarely watch an actual game.

I’ve been like that for a while now and it probably makes it easier being out here and in a different time zone. I can’t get myself up very often to watch a lot of other football. And especially the way it’s covered in the media let alone how it appears to favour the clubs the PL and UEFA want to see at the top of the game.

I'll call it now. Man U will get a helping hand from the officials today.

Plays both but most of his career has been spent on the right. Estevao has taken up the right side since he came in. Suppose with Gittens and Garnacho that's your 4 players sorted for either of the flanks.

I'm fuming and I'm not even a Fulham fan! This has been a disgusting refereeing performance. Biased, incompetent and, who knows, even corrupt.

On TV I will watch Championship games, Italian games and German games in preference to PL games not involving us. VAR and diabolical refereeing has killed the game in England at the top level.

Feel for Londonfranky and the other Fulham fans. Hope Fulham thrash them in the return fixture!

I'm probably wrong but I always think that it's the same teams getting favourable decisions.
