I am aware of that, but it wasn't hidden anyway.
They finished with the milkchucking story, and apologised to the other guest.
Got to like Clive.

Only this, i mean seriously fumble. Think on a bit here, your promoting a utd troll who is clinging to his already shaky platform. Knocking it ok but providing a link on a forum that gets many views per day doesn't go towards silencing him does it. You are essentially propping the person up by providing another platform for his childish views to be espoused from. Even utd fans can't be arsed with him!Don’t click on it
To be fair, we are actually really good at tactical fouling, it's part of how we prevent getting hit on the break. We are not some clean, angelic footballing side, it's all about winning and fouling is part of that. The earlier you commit those fouls the better, much less likely to get a yellow. We didn't have to do it much against the rags, because they never bothered trying to play out and just lumped it aimlessly forward at the first opportunity.yhp, Sterling with 4 fouls and then Delph with 2, and nobody else in our team had more than 1, very tactical.
Meanwhile United had Herrera, Matic and Lingard with 3 each and Young and Valencia with 2 each. Sterling gave away 4 fouls and was fouled 3 times, as was Sane and Silva twice. Perhaps he could do a piece on why they gave away 3 times as many fouls in their own half than we did in ours? In fact, we only gave away 2 fouls in our own half all game, which is quite incredible.

Whilst we may be good at it the whole thing is getting blown out of proportion.
From our regulars only Sterling (1.3), Fernandinho (1.2) and Jesus (1.1)commit over a foul a game in the league.

As PD said, we’re great at the tactical fouls.
Silva is one of the best at it.

Still nothing anywhere about the nailed on pen on otta?

Not to mention the one on Jesus that the media insist was a dive - Twattenberg in the Times even claims it should be reviewed resulting in a 2 game ban! He was clearly tripped by Herrera, who is a dirty cheating ****.

That passage of skill by Jesus was fantastic and is a sign now of his growing confidence and belief....That is the player he was in Brasil. He was so unlucky as well not to get the power he needed on his left peg with the other chance he created.
Want to see more of this please
This and Otta's and one on Sane and one on Bernado all been overlooked. The only issue with Jesus' one is that he does go down a little theatrically, but it is a foul, no doubt, and Hererra knew it too, you could see by his reaction he was very worried.

I read Twattenbergs comments. I believe and please someone correct me if i am wrong, it is only reviewed if it results in a penalty or an opposition player being sent off. As neither happened it cannot/will not be reviewed. Now either I am wrong or as usual Clattenberg does not know the rules, if I am right why is the dick spouting off in a main stream newspaper.

Correct, he doesn't know the rules and neither do all the media outlets who have repeated his comments!
