Trying to get my head around the new IFAB directive for corners at the World Cup.
If an attacking team grapples before the kick is taken, goal is ruled out.
If a defending team does so, nothing to see here?
Laws of the game not being implemented for both teams, no?

@ryantegan @pokeefe1 @JaiP72 Absolutely. Forgot to add the likes of Semenya, Watkins and even Maddison

[Duncan Wright @dwright75]

@pokeefe1 @JaiP72 Bowen, Olise, Eze. Just three signed from the Championship who shone.
Too many people play fantasy football

[Duncan Wright @dwright75]

They’ll say penalties is a cruel way to lose, but that’s what happens when your gameplan is to not lose a final rather than try to win it.
Arsenal are a fine organised side, who defended well.
But Arteta is repeatedly a frightened manager in the big games.

[Duncan Wright @dwright75]

@TomCantonMedia Officiating not half as frustrating as Arsenal’s tactics.

[Duncan Wright @dwright75]

PSG have not had to do anything to nullify Saka.
Arteta tactics have done that for them

[Duncan Wright @dwright75]

If that goal does one thing, it surely means Arsenal have to start trying to play at least some progressive football now.

The game itself has been a shocker, no matter how well they defended

[Duncan Wright @dwright75]

Arsenal will be riding this bus they e parked all the way back to their parade tomorrow

[Duncan Wright @dwright75]

Arsenal denied their corner by the half time whistle. Shouldn’t have taken so long!

[Duncan Wright @dwright75]

Actually think Arsenal are playing within themselves.
Defensively organised and concentration fantastic. But they’ve hardly tried expressing themselves.
Perfect half for the Gunners

[Duncan Wright @dwright75]

F*** me Havertz hit that hard!!

[Duncan Wright @dwright75]

@Sausages27 That’s my point. Young talent. Deliver time is now

[Duncan Wright @dwright75]

Gordon move to Barca blocking Rashford deal. Where does that leave him with Utd?
With Carrick in charge I honestly think the chance is there again. He’ll give talent a chance.
However, the rest is up to Rashford. Such a young talent, can he and will he kick on to mature player?

[Duncan Wright @dwright75]

England's left wing options at the World Cup are going to get on like a house on fire if one player blocks the other's dream move to Barcelona

[Duncan Wright @dwright75]

Can only assume concerns over Adam Wharton's pale skin and ability to cope with the fierce sun in the US was behind Tuchel's decision to leave him out of the England squad.

[Duncan Wright @dwright75]

Well played Crystal Palace. A season which looked to be falling apart ends with European success.
Fantastic for the fans. 👏👏

@MileEnd0103 When you work in the media there are a lot of legal factors to comply with.

[Duncan Wright @dwright75]

“Panorama are doing a show this week” has become the new “my mate at the news of the world says they are doing xxx on Sunday”

The media simply do not have e that many leaks they tell everyone in advance what they are working on

[Duncan Wright @dwright75]

@JacobSteinberg @tomrenniesoccer 😂😂. You are right. I stand corrected.
First class squad planning as always
