King Jela 20,755 Posted Saturday at 20:55 Share Posted Saturday at 20:55 Musiala would've been a good answer for England's left wing problem as well  I'm sure Gordon will be just as handy.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
folkestoneger 8,562 Posted Saturday at 20:56 Share Posted Saturday at 20:56 2 minutes ago, KingKirk said: It's frustrating but the arm is out it's changed the flight of the ball imo it is a pen. However in the Premier league I don't think that's given, what annoys me is the laws aren't applied the same across Europe. It is an offence if a player: deliberately touches the ball with their hand/arm, for example moving the hand/arm towards the ball touches the ball with their hand/arm when it has made their body unnaturally bigger. A player is considered to have made their body unnaturally bigger when the position of their hand/arm is not a consequence of, or justifiable by, the player’s body movement for that specific situation. By having their hand/arm in such a position, the player takes a risk of their hand/arm being hit by the ball and being penalised.  They simply do not apply the part in bold with any common sense. Players cannot help moving their arms when moving KingKirk 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think though it's more that he played for England at youth level, and switched a couple of times between them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s ridiculous that going to school in a country qualifies you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
