No one is talking about the injustice to a young player
Proper referees take it into account too, they make sure it's egregious before they send a young player off and the best referees will do it with an arm around the shoulder, even as the kid gets off.
The thing about Oliver is his pomposity and sheer arrogance.
Brighton & Hove Albion are prepared to allow Evan Ferguson to depart the club permanently in the January transfer window.
The 20-year-old Republic of Ireland international has attracted widespread loan interest from Premier League rivals and top-flight clubs abroad, but Brighton are also open to the possibility of selling Ferguson at the right price if the circumstances suit both the club and the player.
Brighton sources, speaking on the condition of anonymity, indicated a permanent bid for Ferguson has already been rejected.
______________________________________________
Rumors that Marseille are interested in signing Ferguson and have a reunion with De Zerbi.
West Ham and Everton are also mentioned.
Now, representatives of the player are in talks with Leverkusen. The potential replacement of Boniface, who's moving to Al Nassr.
I wonder if we should be interested in Ferguson. His current manager obviously doesn't play him enough - just 2 starts in the PL. He's 20 though and we know Arsenal has been following him for a long time.
If we want him, we could get him, there's no way he says no and the price will probably be fair - maybe £35-40m would be enough. He's currently injured btw (lol).
Back when people thought he'd be the next Harry Kane.
Ridiculous prices like £100m were touted and knowing how high Brighton sells, it made sense. Since his introduction to the PL, his stocks are at an all time low. This is literally the time to buy. If we believe in him.
De Zerbi wants him means that he values him.
Alonso literally wants him as the replacement of Boniface.
That's two of the best coaches that are trying to get Ferguson.
Then we have another excellent manager - Graham Potter. Another ex manager of Brighton. He also wants the lad cause the Hammers are fucked with the injured German CF and the injured Bowen.
We're presented a huge chance. One day, if he becomes a top striker, we'll be coming back to January 2025 feeling like shit cause we missed that one chance we had to sign him on a cut price deal.
If he doesn't reach that level though, we'll be having a laugh for not taking the bait.
Lol City using their puppets Girona to sign Nypan like they did with Savio and "buy" him later for a 30m fee when he should really cost £50m. There are no rules anymore.
Transfers shouldn't be allowed or capped to very few numbers with in a few years time frame between multi club model clubs. This is like Chelsea hoarding all the talent back then.
But that will fall short too. No one can tell me City signed Doku for £60m the previous year and then signed a better prospect for half the price a year later. That is skewing the rules. Fair market value is debatable. Like their revenue streams, they can say what they want.
Latest propaganda piece from Guardian, apparently Coote world class at var so he got lots to offer and deserves another chance.

"David Coote “deserves” to have a continued role in English football, the chair of the Referees’ Association has said ... Coote remains one of the most highly regarded video assistant referees in Europe, and is keen when the time is right to have a role related to officiating, if not an on-field one."
yea at this point its going to be an overseas loan. We do not give the selling team enough time for find a replacement player. Its gonna be that situation again. Pls God no Rashford though
It is very interesting how an organization such has PGMOL, which is unaccountable can be allowed to exist in a democratic society. To then manipulate things and turn the villain, into a victim and then to carry on as if nothing happened. Any person who was exposed to apparently horrific abuse and is under stress, would be expected a couple of days off ? this whole thing very strange to say the list. This organization is like a maffia and can not be reformed it has to be disolved.
'Even last weekend there were decisions made which make the idea that MLS engaged in ‘serious foul play’ ridiculous. Joelinton once again got away with a horrendous challenge in Newcastle’s win over Southampton, this man is 1% human, 99% Teflon because nothing sticks. Not even a yellow card. Julio Enciso’s challenge on Wataru Endo in Ipswich’s 4-1 defeat at Anfield was like something you’d see in the Octagon rather than on a football pitch.'
Wait, I’m a dick because you can’t come up with a single similar play, after you called my memory into question for saying I couldn’t recall another play like that, not this season anyway?!
Relax friend, Trump probably wants to build soccer pitches there ( he said national interest…..what else could it be?) to bring the sport the the required level fit for the number one country in the world.
If the PGMOL spent as much time and skill on properly training their referees as they do in manipulating the narrative from a PR standpoint we wouldn’t have any of the onfield decisions we keep talking about .
Just a horrible cabal of entitled and arrogant pricks. The FA seriously needs to invest in top level foreign referees… this group just isn’t fit for purpose … on the other hand I’m so happy they’re taking the threats to Oliver seriously.
It will be the end of football as we know it if God forbid, one imbecile crosses the line with an official. People really need to calm the f—k down .
I also credit Arteta for showing so much restraint and maturity even though it was killing him looking at the face of that ref
I would bite your hand off for Watkins arsenal fan and knows how to find the net and can play the channels yes please
I can’t believe a talent like Paul Pogba has lost his way so bad that he’s in Miami begging for a club.
How have the mighty fallen smh

Girona have a small squad we should crush them mercilessly
https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/cg4525y2rg1o
Arsenal have a launched a formal appeal against the red card for MLS.
People keep yapping about that crooked ref.
But like I mentioned before
we have a young boy on the rise who could possibly lose his place in the
team, because he will be suspended and a senior player who just scored the winning goal could excel while he is unjustly benched for three games.
No one is even looking at the big picture for a promising young player all because of a hopeless ref.
You're right
No one is talking about the injustice to a young player
Proper referees take it into account too, they make sure it's egregious before they send a young player off and the best referees will do it with an arm around the shoulder, even as the kid gets off.

Exactly he’s an arrogant prick.
I think he started top level officiating
In his 20s which is kinda unprecedented and
he’s become so full of himself.
Little prick

Never knew what all the hype about him was.
Only stand out from him was being allowed to get away with a blatant shove in the back on Saliba and scoring
Back when people thought he'd be the next Harry Kane.

Decisions, decisions.
"Queer as a coot" was an old expression used back in the day. The re-emergence is uncanny...

Transfers shouldn't be allowed or capped to very few numbers with in a few years time frame between multi club model clubs. This is like Chelsea hoarding all the talent back then.
This isn't true at all
The premier league has a well documented procedure for players coming from feeder clubs. They determine the market value.
But that will fall short too. No one can tell me City signed Doku for £60m the previous year and then signed a better prospect for half the price a year later. That is skewing the rules. Fair market value is debatable. Like their revenue streams, they can say what they want.
No it doesn't fall short because there's such a thing as a good bargain and since when did you become some expert at market prices.
Was River plate part of the city multiclub when city signed Julian Alvarez for £14 million in January 2022?
When we paid £6 million for Martinelli from Ituano in June 2019, was it shady?
There's such a thing as doing your homework with aggressive scouting and smart implementation. Stop casting everything as nefarious.
Even when an independent process exist [which city do not like], you're still moaning about it.
If Lee Mason can have a job training new select referees then surely David Coote can be brought back to be the chief compliance office
Job for the boys, eh

Pgmol would continue to getting away with ref screw-up....not regulated so no accountability. Media pressure is as good as it gets
Club finally filed an appeal for MLS red card, likely to no avail... these crooks would hunker down
Where are the signings ?

Talk about changing conversation….. the battle for Greenland is hotting up.
Apparently Britain has first dibs.
Cant wait to see Un’s reaction after Trump steals it for national security reasons , of course.
I know, no politics.
But should probably be ok, no mention of Jews or Palestinians.

Arseblog today Tom
Cmon, Bob, we both know these aren’t the plays in question.
Not even a good effort.
You're being a d**k. I haven't got the time or inclination to search for similar fouls(I wouldn't know where to start!)
Arsenal have put forward their case. Maybe you can contact them for evidence.
How about this one...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HedleO3dKOk
Not studdy enough for me!
Wait, I’m a dick because you can’t come up with a single similar play, after you called my memory into question for saying I couldn’t recall another play like that, not this season anyway?!
Typical.
Typical that people call you a d**k?
Why bring politics here ?
Relax friend, Trump probably wants to build soccer pitches there ( he said national interest…..what else could it be?) to bring the sport the the required level fit for the number one country in the world.
Have we bought another left back yet?
I’m getting nervous we’re running out of time.
If the PGMOL spent as much time and skill on properly training their referees as they do in manipulating the narrative from a PR standpoint we wouldn’t have any of the onfield decisions we keep talking about .
