Meh season, but at least I have my hunnies 💯 Til next seas #FPL✌

@bcwatkinson @Marshillo_ @FplVelvet If there isn't absolutely conclusive evidence, these situations are generally awarded to the attacker. There is nothing in the rules about this specifically, because there are situations where it is not clear, which is why the review panel exists. That's my understanding... 🤷‍♂️

@Marshillo_ @FplVelvet This is an ai overview not the rule book.

Genuinely gobsmacked Opta and the Premier League goal accreditation panel haven’t removed that Bruno Fernandes assist. They’re petrified to remove a record breaking assist. The fairest way to view this; it’s like every other. Any other stage of the season, and it’s removed.

@FPL_Noah_ @FPLOlympian Mix the two together, I think you got it... Haaland Thiago O'Reilly Bruno Rice Anderson Semenyo Guehi Gabriel Senesi Raya

@FPLOlympian Mine is very different x.com/fpl_noah_/stat…

My Premier League Team of the Season 🌟 Nothing to debate here 🤝

@FFH_HQ Jumped inside 28k with post-match updates! Really wanted 25k (missed by 3pts). Shoulda taken the -4 for Porro, but at least I got vibes & points with Bowen and Mo - farewell lads! 🫡 x.com/i/status/20586…

@duenthedude @meek__01 Show me something conclusive 🤷‍♂️

@DragoonFpl @meek__01 There is nothing conclusive if you're blind or simply want Bruno to get the outright record. For those with none of those problems , it will be rightfully taken away from Bruno.

Bruno Fernandes' record 21st assist probably shouldn't exist. And the rules that prove it came from Man United fans themselves. Here's what happened: Fernandes whipped in a corner, Dorgu's header hit the crossbar, came down, hit Verbruggen's hand and went into the net. The Premier League officially credited it as a Dorgu goal and a Bruno Fernandes assist. Record broken. Then the replays came out. United fans started sharing a screenshot of the Premier League's own published rules titled "When is it NOT an own goal?" thinking it proved the goal was correctly given to Dorgu. Here's the painful irony, that image actually builds the case AGAINST Bruno's assist. Here's exactly why. The PL rules only protect attacker goal credit in two specific situations: 1. ON-TARGET DEFLECTIONS — If an attacking player shoots a ball that is already on target and it deflects off a defender on its way past the goalkeeper, the goal stays with the attacker. The defender's touch is just considered a deflection. 2. GOALKEEPER FUMBLES — If an attacking shot on goal is stopped but the goalkeeper fumbles and accidentally pushes it over the line, it is credited to the shooter. The critical word in BOTH cases is ON TARGET. A ball that hits the crossbar or post is by definition OFF TARGET. It is logged as a missed shot in every official stats system including Opta, the PL's own data partner. The goal was already not happening. At the moment that ball struck the crossbar, Dorgu's header was a miss. So when Verbruggen's hand then redirected it into the net, he was not fumbling an on-target shot. He was accidentally diverting a ball that had already missed the goal. Neither of the two protection rules applies here. By the Premier League's own published rules, that is an own goal, Verbruggen OG, not Dorgu goal. Now here's where it gets even more brutal for we the United fans If the Premier League's Goal Accreditation Panel reviewed this and ruled it a Verbruggen own goal, Bruno Fernandes would lose his assist completely. This is another PL rule most people don't know, own goals cannot have assists. It doesn't matter how good the corner was, how deliberately it was delivered or how directly it led to the goal. The moment it becomes an OG, the assist simply disappears from the record. Bruno would drop from 21 back to 20 and level with Kevin De Bruyne and Thierry Henry, not above them. No outright record. Can the panel actually change it now? Technically yes. The Goal Accreditation Panel has no strict published deadline for reviews. But will they? Almost certainly not. The season ended today. The Premier League has already posted the record celebration on their official account. Bruno Fernandes was named Premier League Player of the Season just yesterday. The record has been publicly confirmed at the highest level. Reversing it now would mean the PL publicly embarrassing themselves by walking back their own official announcement hours after making it. So Bruno almost certainly keeps the record, not because the rules clearly support the decision, but because football admin does not reopen finished seasons, and nobody with the power to change it has any incentive to do so. I'm a Man United fan. I want the record to stand. But bias doesn't change what the rules actually say.

@Mikayla4976 @Mmonkoaa Please indulge me. I've haven't seen any video that definitively proves it either way, which is why it gets awarded as a goal.

@DragoonFpl @Mmonkoaa There is. Premier League officiating is very inconsistent.

Raphinha scored this and UEFA told us it’s an own goal. Same as Bruno Fernandes’ goal.

@RpsAgainstTrump How stupid are Republicans? You've chosen a grifter as your leader because you're so selfish you're ok with how terrible Trump is because you think it will help you make money, and you've been grifted by the grifter the entire time.

Megyn Kelly, who endorsed and campaigned for Trump in the 2024 election: “I didn’t expect the corruption to be quite as widespread as it has been. The self-dealing, the lining of his and his family’s pockets. It’s shocking… You look across the board at the Trump family, I’ve never seen a family get so rich off the presidency.”

@duenthedude @meek__01 You don't understand the logic applied to the situation: there is nothing conclusive (video, not stills) to say the ball was definitely NOT going in off the bar or that Verbruggen's touch was what caused the ball to cross the line, therefore, the default is to award the attacker.

@DragoonFpl @meek__01 You clearly don't want to see it. It's clear that it's going out until keepers hand hits it. The only thing that makes it not obvious is that it happens almost instantaneously. If the keeper doesn't raise his hands , the ball doesn't go in. It's an OG

@LiveFPLnet @RakthimS

@RakthimS There might not be

@TouchlineX Watch the video. I don't really care either way, but it looks like it's probably going bar-down and in (or at least it's impossible to to be 100% conclusive), so I believe the standard is to credit the goal to the attacker. It does look like Verbruggen's arm is behind him, so 🤷‍♂️

🚨 𝗡𝗘𝗪: A video currently going viral on social media appears to show that Patrick Dorgu’s goal may actually go down as an own goal. The footage suggests the ball hit the crossbar before going in off Bart Verbruggen’s hand. If confirmed, this could mean that Bruno Fernandes has NOT broken the assist record.

@fplblackbox_az This is the only time I've seen a replay of this. Is there an angle across the goalline (best angle) that shows that the ball was moving away from the goal after it hit the crossbar? It's possible it hit the crossbar and was heading down/in but the angle is deceptive..? 🤷‍♂️

Err, this is the most obvious OG I think I’ve ever seen?

Sum up your season with a GIF 👇

Should finish ~29k. Probably my best 🍟 seas: BB1: 88pts (GW/OR 44k) TC6: 48pts WC11: OR 674k >> 93K by GW18 (never dropped out of 100k after) FH13: 68pts WC32: 88k >> 42k BB33: 128pts (w/ two 0s 🤦‍♂️) FH34: 59pts (22pts benched; would have scored 18 from 2) TC36: 33pts 🍻 ✌️

@RonPaulUtah I don't hate Trump (Trump/MAGA/Republican policy has proven to be a terrible failure over and over though). I just know he's a liar and I'm not stupid enough to vote for him. So, yes, we are VERY different.

Dear leftists: You hate Trump because you disagree with what he campaigned for I hate Trump because he failed to deliver on what he campaigned for. We are not the same.

@ML3democrats All of above. They are a product of decades of Republican strategy to make the electorate stupid. Republican education policy isn't about better education, it's about worse public education, and directing money to private Christian institions not attainable by their constituents.

Are Trump supporters misinformed, ignorant or just plain stupid?

@JDunlap1974 I love MAGA Math. You guys can't add 5+5 on your hands. Did you see Trump and RFK talking percentages in the oval office? Embarrassing. No wonder Republicans destroy the economy everytime they have control.

@AdamKinzinger $1.776B because they're so stupid they think they're clever by making it 1776. Idiots.

So $1.8 billion in reparations for insurrectionists, and zero for Epstein victims? Am I getting this right?

@WhiteHouse This is standard, pathetic, dictator behavior

Bye-bye 👋

@realDonaldTrump Silence the media and dissenting voices. Pretty standard dictator behavior. Trump and ALL Republicans hate America and it's foundation and values. They only care about themselves and money.
