I thought Schar was a shout for man of the match his positioning and composure was pretty spot on all game.

Agreed, I'm commenting on the refs handling of the situation though.

That along with it being blatantly obvious he didn't realise he'd already booked Gordon before his second yellow just has the optics of a ref that's not particularly in control.

Letting the game continue when it's still in play under those circumstances is one thing, but allowing a quick free kick when the ball is out of play and a man is down is another. Doesn't really sit right. Did he even check on Schar?

I don't think I can disagree with that observation any more. Bruno has largely carried the team all season. We'd be beyond fucked if he'd been injured, too.

The commentator on the coverage I watched kept saying that he didn't know much about how it ended up in the goal, which was a huge disservice to how good the finish was. You can clearly see him dig out the shot to ease it past the keeper. Brilliant goal.

Thought he was outstanding all game. His speed of thought in the tightest of spots is unreal.

Just watching now and thought the same. That said, he looked relatively blindsided. In other news, that Tavares had some wild efforts on goal

It's one of those instance whereby VAR will just back whatever the on-field decision is. Personally, if that was against us I'd be arguing it's a pen. I don't really see any excessive, un-natural movement from Awoniyi to manoeuvre a penalty. Not to mention the Awoniyi looks an absolute lump who probably isn't deft enough to play for one

Ando calling Schar's goal "a simple finish". It was an incredibly controlled finish under pressure, put in the bottom corner with precision. Anything but simple

I thought he had an utterly thankless task all game today and made a nuisance of himself on the limited occasions the ball was near him. Quite surprised at the comments.

Funny I thought he was the only player that started for them that did their job effectively. Thought he had a good game.

Season over.

Is it really a reality check? There's pretty unanimous acknowledgement from the club be it commercial, operational, on field and all in between that we massively over achieved last season.

I genuinely think he's quite crucial to the potency of our attack. His fast line breaking passes often take several players out of the game, giving us way more space to exploit. We're much more middling without him.
