I agree with that.

I agree with that.

Completely disagree, everyone would've just laid into Samba for dropping it. No-one reacts when someone on the line doesn't save it.

Pick another scapegoat...

He's missed four goal scoring opportunities this season, easier than anything Grabban and Taylor have missed combined.

That's not true though because the chance that Grabban missed very late on against Rotherham was far easier. In fact I doubt that there has been an easier chance missed in the whole football league this season.

I was thinking that. But why let the truth get in the way of a good bit of scapegoating eh?

Where’s the scapegoating?

I thought this forum was in favour of balance.

What do you mean?
If you want to apportion blame for that goal - look at Ribs not Samba.

Don't forget Christie running across to head it away, then pausing then getting beaten anyway

These goals don’t go in when you are top half... we actually had a really good away performance tonight. I’m not going to slag anyone off for that. Figgs best game for a year!

Did not realise I could not blame a goalkeeper when the ball goes straight through him! But I'm learning tpl.

Criticising a player for deliberately handling the ball and getting himself sent off is scapegoating? Lol
