I've said it all along they can change the frame rate (go back or forward a few frames) from when the passer kicks the ball to manipulate the result they want. Yesterday was the perfect example. It still annoyed me at how quickly they made the decision when it was such a close call.
If it was the other way around, they would have given it no doubt.
Don't think any clubs can demand a player gets minutes. Having said that, Chelsea had a fee if Broja didn't get enough minutes for Fulham, which was quite clever.
If we are basing on this season, Watkins, of course, is a candidate for team of the season. I'd still rather have Isak in my team based on his attributes and having a higher ceiling.
So you're basing it just on stats? Some people might view Watkins as better which is a fair view but to say he is clearly better is a bit absurd especially from a fellow 'Newcastle fan'.
