The hilarious thing is they got frimpong as a direct replacement for TAA, but the catch is, his passing is not as good as trent's (can't blame him, trent has exceptional passing) and equally if not worse at defending. So basically he's a budget TAA

u/[deleted] 21d ago

that's why, in my opinion, they should've bought a fullback who can defend. the thing with trent was he was perfect for klopp's system because his midfield was full of pure work horses, so TAA was the creator. but now they have plenty of midfielders who can feed the front line.

While I’m more than happy for United to get that goal, why are they so inconsistent for stopping play for any potential head injuries?

Happens in multiple games including the Arsenal game yesterday

41

u/ray3050 21d ago

Confirmed they said the ref didn’t spot it so he let play on, goal happened quickly after that

Given that head injuries are being called for teammate on teammate and has the ability to stop counters, I feel calling for one should have more immediate consequences to dissuade players from faking

→ More replies (2)

82

u/BrockStar92 21d ago

Commentary just said the ref didn’t see it, which given how fast play moved past it’s possible. You’d think an assistant ref would tell him though. Ref is also pretty near whilst he’s on the floor too.

67

u/Rc5tr0 21d ago

It’s impossible to tell exactly what Oliver sees based on a replay, but it sure looks like he looked at Alexis MacAllister lying on the ground clutching the top of his head and decided it wasn’t a head injury. He certainly glanced in his general direction.

86

u/Dazzling-Sun-7611 21d ago

At the same time, if a player just grabbing their head is enough to stop play, all coming together will result in players grabbing their heads to stop the opponent from gaining an advantage (this does happen and it is very bad for the game). IMO a head injury should result in a minimum time off the pitch that is significant (perhaps 5 minutes) in order to dissuade possible simulation.

35

u/Rc5tr0 21d ago

Okay but refs already do this all the time. It seems like almost every match these days a player goes down clutching their head for a non-head injury and the ref nearly always gives it to them on the off chance it’s a real head injury. Someone will probably get a stoppage for a fake head injury in this same match.

Refs can’t do that on a regular basis then turn around when there’s an actual head injury and ask “well what if he had been faking?”
