🚨 Gary Neville on Chelsea’s late penalty appeal against Hull City:
🗣️ Neville: “I can understand why they haven’t given it. Estevao crosses it from very close range, Ajayi hasn’t got much time to react and they’re basically on top of each other.
Fine.
But if that’s the explanation, Chelsea supporters should save this clip somewhere on their phones. Don’t delete it.
Because the interesting part starts the next time a Chelsea defender is standing that close to somebody, the ball hits his arm and the referee points to the spot.
That’s when we’ll find out whether this was actually an interpretation of the handball rule or just the interpretation we were using at Stamford Bridge this afternoon.
I can already imagine it. Chelsea play next week, Colwill gets hit on the arm from two yards away, penalty.
Then somebody comes on television explaining arm position, silhouette, movement towards the ball…
Chelsea supporters won’t want to hear any of it.
They’ll just put a picture of Ajayi next to it and say, ‘Explain the difference.’
That’s the problem with handball now. Sometimes I don’t even disagree with the decision. I just want to know whether I’m allowed to remember it.
If proximity means no penalty today, good.
Just make sure proximity still means no penalty when Chelsea are the ones defending.”
🚨 Carrick on the defeat to AC Milan:
🗣️ Reporter: “Michael, how disappointed are you with that performance?”
🗣️ Carrick: “Very. It wasn’t good enough. But Milan hadn’t won a single pre season game, so if this gives Amorim and his players some confidence, at least somebody got what they needed tonight.
Congratulations, Ruben. Enjoy this one. As for Hull, if they’re watching this and getting confident too…..even better.”
