This is why I don't like us having two wide players in the vein of Werner and Johnson - too predictable.

Sarr and Deki on please.

Lots of people here complaining about it being a foul but lots of people clearly don’t think it’s foul including the officials in two separate matches. So that means we have to deal with it because otherwise it will keep on happening.

For years I’ve been frustrated at the way even the slightest of contact with a goalkeeper has resulted in a foul against the attacking team. It so happens Vic hasn’t had that go his way twice in quick succession.

If Spurs had scored those goals and they’d been disallowed I’d have been pretty miffed about it.

Should someone be nominated as a bouncer to help Vic out at set pieces? Richy, maybe?

Commentators are talking about strength which on its own I understand, but it isn’t that on its own, Harrison isn’t even looking at the ball, he is there simply to push and lean on Vicario and stop him being able to jump cleanly.

So how can that not be a foul? It’s essentially just like employing an American football style blocker on the keeper.

Laughable that anyone thinks that a foul. No different to any outfield players using their body against an opponent.

Our defenders need to get involved more. Also, giving away needless corners isn't helping.
Yeah never a foul.
People act like there's some law that keeps can't be touched.
There isn't and there shouldn't be

Vic just needs to give as good as he gets.

Hojbjerg and Johnson need to come off at half time. The former is giving the ball away non stop and the latter is doing next to nothing.

Choice of pass has been poor. Going back when you got space to move into. Vicario just got to judge the flight of the ball much better then be assertive. Almost like he’s happy to be pinned

We need to be doing the same to Pickford. Bugger all we can do to stop it happening to Vicario.
Everton will put someone between the Gk and attacker like any sensible team would. Foul or not - put someone in between and we don’t have to even worry about it being an issue
