You think the rules back you up because you're stupid.

He didn't spread his body with the intention of using his arms to block the ball, which is what you're basically claiming. His arms were where you'd expect them to be as part of a natural movement.

If you expect a player who is moving, to have his arms down by his side the whole time, then you're an idiot. It's why Ferdinand looked like he wanted to punch Walton last night.

Anyone with common sense knows it was a crazy decision but unfortunately we now have a growing number of idiots who think they can redefine words to back up their point.

It really is that simple and there's nothing more for me to say on the matter.

How can anyone other than him know his intentions?

His intentions were clearly to make himself big in the most cowardly fashion possible.

He wasn’t in control of his body, just threw himself, tuning his back arm out. Stonewaller.

This really. What to stop someone just jumping and turning with their arms out and then just saying 'bygones' or something.

As said I think it was harsh but can see why the ref gave it. His arm is moving towards the ball and it's made his body bigger. I've thrown many a punch with my eyes closed, oops. Tough one for the ref though.

Not sure what the ref was doing with all the extra time either fwiw.

The other PSG player near him had arms by his side.

I’ll revisit this tomorrow after 350 comments.

Sorry mate, I don't think there are enough morons around to get 350...

He came from the side of the ball and didnt get I front of it at any time, apart from his arm, which was away from his body. Turning his back whilst jumping in with his arm doesn't mean it wasn't intentional, in regards to the guidance referees are given to determine it. This is exactly what VAR was brought in for and it works and proves Winston's previous nonsense wrong. That's why he's so angry, he's rather be right than United go through.

He's probably on his referee website arguing with referees at the moment. I away to check.

TOOR still angry about the fact that I was proven correct by referees in a debate over a month ago.



Still makes me laugh that he spent weeks arguing that Salah was fouled, calling it 100% a foul, but he didn’t even know which law was relevant. He still doesn’t.

The gift that keeps on giving.

Proven wrong and it made you so angry that you would rather be right than your team go through in the CL.

That's how much you need to be right. You're nuts.

I've made this point many times. It's great seeing them go to war.

TOOR now repeating himself to try and get out of the fact that he reminded everyone of his error over a month ago, and letting slip that it’s still on his mind.

He’s had another shocker.

Only in our stubbornness.

In intelligence he’s way off. He’s a middle manager who needs things in neat boxes.

He doesn’t understand the laws of the game and he doesn’t understand the difference between fact and opinion.

I do enjoy destroying him on here though.

I don't go on for days any more as I realised I can never win, he is more stubborn and has more dedication. I admire this, especially when he seems to be saying the opposite as everybody else, most of the time.

TOOR loves a good lie.

Last time he said that everyone disagreed with me there were five other people on the same thread agreeing with me.

He seems to think people won’t just read back and check what he said. Bit of an oddball.

Yeah that's right, I'm the one who argues the meaning of words ad hominem, who needs everything to be literal.

Well no, I say that on every thread as it's every thread everybody disagrees with you. If I missed some comments from one where you had people agreeing with you...well even a stopped clock etc etc.

That’s not what it means TOOR.



Trust you to need it explaining.

It means you need things ticked off, yes or no, binary, no room for grey areas or opinions. So you set your own criteria and then use it to prove yourself correct.

It’s hilarious to watch because you don’t even realise you’re doing it.

The best every was when you claimed that hand to ball is binary. Melton destroyed you that day but you carried on. Very entertaining.
