Saved English football and this is the thanks you get.
Bollocks.
where was the yellow card for the foul on Zinky as he was shooting????

 

[MeatHunterrr]

Garcia it is then for Spurs.

Ake?

 

[Deleted member 77198]

I’m amazed some think that was a yellow.

Do you not agree that it was a mistimed reckless tackle?

 

[Mike N]

Straight red 3 game ban?

Yes

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Yes and on his current trajectory that is good for us.

He’s not in good form, but I wouldn’t say Laporte or Dias are either.

 

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

No he didn’t. Watkins put extra spin in those rolls to get that. Yellow was correct.

You can't have been watching it that closely, as it was Ramsey.

 

[Big Dave Watson]

These things happen unfortunately so that’s why it was criminal that we didn’t beat Leeds.

 

[AlexGrimaldo]

Walker bombing upfield just before the red wasnt needed and left us wide open down that side. That's been their out ball every time

True.. Walker needs to use more his brain.. And Mahrez did an awful cross to lose the ball in the mifdfield and then no Walker there..

 

[Mazzarelli's Swiss Cheese]

For serious foul play yeah.

Hoping that might be subject to review?

 

[johnnytapia]

Its a yellow and that's it. Nowhere near enough force. Not lunging studs up and not off his feet. The contact is a result of the follow through. If that's a red card there's 10 every game.
Stitched up again.

Take off the blue goggles and stop being blind to what happened. Nailed on red all day long

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Yes, but reckless is a yellow. It needs to be excessive force for a straight red. It wasn’t excessive force, he was only trying to kick the ball.

But which ball(s)?

 

[bluemoon32]

It was a red

 

[creditunionhero]

When you go in late and thigh high with your studs up you are getting a red card. It’s not bent at all. It’s just the way it is.

Thigh high, what were you watching, he was no higher than the attacker who was trying to play the ball and his studs were no higher.

 

[Akiva]

Was a red IMO. Would sacrifice Jesus for Laporte, without hesitation.

Massive 45 mins for City coming up here, but even a man down we're better.

Watching Trailer Park Boys. Just come on here and it looks like it's not going well. Are we bottling it like the Rags in 2012?

You'd think so being in here. Stones brainfarts and we're winning with 10 men.

We've got this.

 

[jaiguruKun]

Garcia it is then for Spurs.

Naaah

[ScottSinclair]

Red card and opening minutes aside, we have been fantastic to watch this game

 

[SWP's back]

sacrifce mahrez potentially...our of the front 4 he has a lower work rate and is elast effective at pressing from the front......Bernardo, foden and Jesus all better at pressing.

He also the most likely to give the ball away with a floated ball into the middle, but also the most likely to get assist doing so but I agree, his work rate is the lowest so I’d be sacrificing him.
