Just seen it on MoTD and it was even more blatant than I thought earlier, two players fouled two of our attackers. Need to just get shot of VAR, it's useless.
Just watched it as well & agree re var - I didn't want it in the first place. How good was Antonio

There was one point in the second half where a move he was involved in broke down. He sprinted back 70yards so yards at full pelt to win the ball back and I was literally wincing in case he pulled up clutching his hamstring.
Having watched him run out of steam on Mon eve, his fitness is certainly coming back. Decent break now as we don't play again until Boxing Day (away obvs ).

Wasn't mentioned (watched it again this am).
It certainly was in last nights episode (by match commentator not GL in studio), they replayed the VAR and match commentator didn’t think there was enough for a penbad company said:

Good 3 points, Didn't watch it all as connection kept dropping on SkyGO so watched about 3/4 of it. Missed the goal initially.
But from what I saw, we were just better than a poor team, come up against anybody half decent and were still in trouble?
Yep, won’t change overnight, but with Ant running in behind we had so many more options and Haller wasn’t isolated.But from what I saw, we were just better than a poor team, come up against anybody half decent and were still in trouble?
The issue will be whether Pelle was forced into playing two up top because of Anderson’s illness or whether he felt it was right to change formation.
Good to see Fornals be involved in the goal, 3 assists in the last 4 goals now.
Yes Fornals seems to have a bit of spirit about him, the way he celebrates, the way he is gutted at losing. He is winning me over. Antonio is the heartbeat up front though, power, pace and willingness makes him a perfect foil for Haller, lets hope that with an Anderson return he doesn't just flip back to 4-5-1 again, we have to play two up top even if it means a depleted midfield (what a difference a top drawer central midfielder would make in Jan).

Has anyone heard anything about David Martin’s injury? We need him fit.
No real news other than that he has a muscle injury, but apparently Fabs is due back to face Palace on Boxing Day. https://www.claretandhugh.info/david-martin-suffer...
I know I will get shouted down but I still think Pelle should go and now is the right time, I admit I dont have to mind a replacement - if the Arsenal merry go round doesnt end up on the south coast then apparently Mr Howe might be interested. I just dont think us scraping a 1-0 win against Southampton can justify what has been tactical ineptness for the last 3 months.
On the subject of ‘keepers, I reckon this is probably about right

Annoyingly I don't think we've seen the last of him yet. https://www.givemesport.com/1530287-premier-league...
