motd 23:05 - Dec 14 with 4655 views | Trequartista | Definitely a deflection on the Wolves goal. Shows the ball flick upwards above Muric's hands. Also, when one of our defenders question him, he points at Clarke to signal it was a deflection. |  |

motd on 23:11 - Dec 14 with 3736 views | Vaughan8 | I have to admit, in real time I thought "how's he let that in". But after the replays, it definitely gets a slight deflection which seems to take it past Muric. So i'll excuse that from being an "error" though its still not good being beaten at your near post. |  | |  |

Would he have been beaten, though, but for the deflection? It feels as if some people are trying to attribute blame wherever they can. |  |

Yes he won't avoid a ban for that now. Saw McKenna pulling Delap away so he'll know what Delap did or didn't do. |  |

Still no clearer on the Delap situation. The graphics covered the Aït Nouri second yellow, and didn't mention Delap getting carded, but Walcott seemed to think he had been during the analysis. |  |

Just watched it. Pretty outrageous. Delap? No idea what he did wrong beyond verbals - that may well justify the yellow. The Wolves bloke? Nuts. Like the way he grabbed our bloke’s glasses. Having just spent £500 on bins I wouldn’t be happy if I was him. Just watching Leicester. Despite messiah Red Rum Van Nistelrooy, they’re being ripped a new one. [Post edited 14 Dec 2024 23:30]

Glad they focussed on that. It's bad enough that he elbowed the ITFC staff member in the head, but I actually think the removal of glasses was just as bad. A disrespectful, bullying act, that. Hope the FA throw the book at him. Also, Ait-Nouri had to be physically manhandled multiple times and practically shoved down the tunnel. Not a good look for Wolves. Not happy about Delap getting booked, but didn't see any footage to show why he did. |  | |  |

I wasn't one calling for him to be replaced, he's the best keeper we have. He does so much well, particularly claiming crosses but I do think it was a really poor goal to concede, especially as his position was so far over that side, he should never get beaten there. |  | |  |

MOTD seems to think it was for his role in the initial set-to with Aït Nouri, which led to the scenes that nobody* wants to see. *everybody |  |

Not even just violent conduct. You do that in the street you're getting nicked. Elbow to the back of the head. Incredibly dangerous. |  |

100% this. The comment was nonsense. Also, alot of people who know nothing about goal keeping go on too much about 'should NEVER be beaten at your near post', as if there is no nuance. |  |

The rules just go out the window the moment there's a deflection. You can have the best positioning in the world, yet be beaten by a deflection off a well-struck shot. Similarly, you can have the positional awareness of a lasagne, yet have your blushes spared by a lucky deflection. |  |

I'm a staunch defender of Muric, but I haven't seen any footage that suggests a deflection by Clarke. If anyone has any, I'd like to see it. On MOTD and on TV live earlier, the ball seemed to just rocket into the top of the net. Even so, I do t think it was a massive error by Muric. Lots of errors in the lead up, and a great blasted shot. Muric in. |  | |  |

Its also assault. Not a player, not heat of the moment in a sport. Thats literally criminal. |  | |  |

Have a look at the sky highlights. The third angle, from behind Muric shows it. |  | |  |

Look, if it rains tomorrow Muric will get the blame. He actually wasn’t to blame for today’s goal though. It rocketed in from what I could see on MOTD. Not seen the full game through so cannot comment on the rest of his performance. [Post edited 15 Dec 2024 6:24]

Agreed. One of the reasons why it's so hard to tell whether there's a deflection is that the ball is travelling at quite some pace. A goalkeeper does not have to guarantee that he saves every shot in order not to be to blame for a goal, in my view. That's true regardless of which post he's beaten at (near, far, wherever you are.....). |  | |  |
motd on 08:34 - Dec 15 with 1853 views | DJR | I had a perfect view of the goal because I was sat in a direct line from me to the scorer and on to Muric and the goal posts. The issue for me was Muric's positioning because there was a large gap between him and the near post meaning he had to dive to his right (unsuccessfully) to try to prevent the goal. It may be that he had set himself up for the cross but a goalkeeper should not really be beaten at his near post from such a narrow angle, whether or not there was a deflection. My three friends thought the same as me, but these things happen, he otherwise played well and we won in the end which is all that matters. [Post edited 15 Dec 2024 8:37]

So you excuse it but then basically still don't excuse it i. The same sentence. |  |
