S ATTWELL - Chelsea v Fulham

Slightly off topic but listening to Howard Webb before the match
and I have to say I like this new approach of Webb out in the
grounds, talking to the media and communicating his ideas and
philosophies with how he wants to groom SG1.
We never saw this with Riley and I really look forward to seeing
how Webb progresses and the transparency that’ll be prevalent in
his tenure at the helm.

Watched it as well, it is what you should expect from a senior
manager. Explaining decisions honestly without necessarily
chucking the referees under the bus, it is looking very
promising.

It was very impressive and so refreshing. This is what is
needed and the fact that he is talking with the game's
stakeholders reassuring. Webb is right, football is about
opinions which I guess is why we love the game.
It will be interesting to see how he develops referees and what
tools he gives to help them.

Not a bad half overall, but terrible decision to pull back play
when Mudryk fouled Tete when Fulham had a good advantage. A
further slap in the face that a yellow card wasn't produced when
Palhinha had seen yellow for something similar earlier.
Personally would've shown yellow when Robinson had the ball
knocked out of his hand when about to take a throw in.

Not watching the game tonight but here is Webb's pre-match
segment for those who missed it:

No grumbles with Attwell tonight aside from the incident where
advantage could have been played.
Let some physical stuff go which seems to be a regular
occurrence.

Thanks for providing the link.
I think this is great, obviously Webb is much more confident in
front of a camera than Riley was, but even so it’s great to see.
Hopefully it continues.

It was interesting to hear Webb say that the general feedback
was the goal in the Manchester derby should have been disallowed
for offside so that decision was more likely if a situation like
that arose again.

First of all Howard Webb comes accross as a good communicator
and very comfortable in front of the cameras, a trait his
predecessor didnt have.
Secondly he and his team are prepared to listen to opinions in
the game, it was good to hear
Him say that the decision in the manchester derby was subjective
and could have been given either way. Further he says the game
as a whole feels that the goal should have been disallowed, i
guess the pgmol have learned again after the instance with Rodri
and Mings of few years back at the etihad, where now offside
would be given.
A game of opinions and interpretations of the laws as he
correctly said.
A good interview.

The interview with Howard Webb was a breath of fresh air, not
least because he didn't duck the questions. Asked specifically
about the Andy Carroll challenge, he said VAR didn't feel it met
the threshold for clear and obvious when the referee had given a
YC, but it should have been a red card. He admitted a mistake
had been made.
I imagine his time in the US has helped his being comfortable in
front of the cameras. A good communicator; let's see how that is
developed.
