For me, the only real controversial call in the game was Caicedo not getting a second yellow for completely studding a Brighton player and going through him from behind a minute before the penalty call.

That Spuds backline is terrible.

They are definitely winning 2-1 lol

I rewatched the Brentford game yesterday. I have to say, while frustrated watching live, on replay, we were comfortably in control the entire match. The criticism of our lack of quick passing when Brentford are defending with 10 inside the 18 is a bit asinine, imo. The ball is only traveling 30 yards back and forth, in such a confined area the defenders only have to move a maximum of 5-8 yards to be in a correct position to nullify an attack. I see why we cross so much with an in swinger to the back post, it’s one of the best ways to score even teams are defending so deep.

In retrospect, I think Kai should have come on at half. Jesus just doesn’t have the imposing figure that is going to force defenders to pinch into the middle further, thereby opening up space for Saka and Martinelli.

The state of officiating and the oversight it has for the best league in the world, is atrocious.
