I know he won't, but when he retires he wants to give the FA a good fucking in the press for the treatment overseas players get in regards English or rag players.And you don't think its cynical when the opposition target his ankles with scrapes, kicks and stamps then?

I've also seen @squirtyflower 's reply, and agree with his comments.Sometimes he does take people out though - several of his cards are for being a bit cynical, same as Sterling.

To go back to the Everton away game, that young thug Davies fouled him around 6 or 7 times, at least 2 or 3 were cynical tackles from behind, all worthy of a yellow card. Each of these were far worse than the trip (his only foul of the match!) by Silva. Even the commentator said that a yellow card should have been the result of his first "challenge", but the referee, the soon-to-be Saudi Prince Mark Clattenburg, merely gave the free kick, and thus gave Davies a licence to kick him at every opportunity.. Remember, he also ignored a blatant penalty by the keeper on Stirling at 0-0 and we eventually lost 4-0. It would have been so different if the Laws of the game had been correctly observed. but that is covered in a separate thread.

Stones against Hudders and didn't we get a couple against Monaco?
Sorry if its been covered but could someone tell my why Silvas goal was ruled out, seems like it was given for offside but was clearly on, it does not seem to have been discussed on tv no suprise there then.
Fair enough thanks for your response.Silva wasn't but Sterling was. As soon as Sterling moved towards the ball and impeded the Sunderland defender (which he definitely did) he became active and was thus offside. Referees and Assistants get plenty of rightful grief but that was a correct decision and if it had been at the other end and been allowed we'd have been apoplectic with rage!
