@LetsTalk_FPL I think it was the right the decision. Harsh not including Trent and Lewis Hall too but the squad is good enough imo.

There we go, lots of competition.
Tuchel is doing what people asked for, for years, balancing the squad and not putting players out of position.
I still question some of the other choices, but not taking MGW as 3rd choice 10 is 🤷♂️

🚨 Thomas Tuchel on Foden, Palmer and Gibbs-White out: “There were difficult phone calls. For some of them, it’s just a positional thing to have a balanced squad so we don’t bring FIVE number tens”. “Even if it was painful, I think it was the right call for England”.

Gibbs-White can consider himself pretty unlucky with how he’s played this season.
But unfortunately for him, he plays in a position that has Bellingham, Rogers, Eze, Foden and Palmer.
People focus too much on form for these things too imo.
And deep down, if people had the choice of signing 2 of those players for their club, I doubt Gibbs-White would be one.
Really good player, ton of competition 🤷♂️

@MadridUniversal Why have VAR at all if they’re just additional spectators?

🚨 OFFICIAL: Explanation from the Referees' Technical Committee (CTA) on the foul against Kylian Mbappé:
"The Referees' Technical Committee considers the play to be reckless; due to the defender's use of his arm, which ended up colliding with the attacker's face during the challenge."
"The defender, with his arm extended backward to gain space after being dribbled by the attacker, struck the attacker's face in a reckless manner, creating an obstacle for the attacker who lost the opportunity to continue with the ball that was within his reach."
"Therefore, according to the Committee's opinion, this situation was eligible to be awarded as a penalty kick."
"Since we are discussing a case that relies heavily on "interpretation and personal judgment," and there is no clear, explicit, and evident error in the decision made by the on-field referee, the VAR report acted correctly by NOT intervening."
"And according to the VAR protocol, intervention for review is only when there is irrefutable, indisputable evidence that allows for the correction of a completely wrong decision."

If 300+ people died and 1,000+ got injured in any place in the world.
London, NYC, Dubai, Toronto, Paris or any "major city" everyone would be screaming TERRORISM.
But when that HAPPENS within 10 minutes in an afternoon in Beirut, Lebanon by Israel suddenly the world switches up.
Disgusting.
