Hopefully someone will send one to city to investigate these outrageous comments, their supposed to be impartial pundits not advocates of violence towards another player it’s absolutely disgusting what the bbc, sky, bt get away with enough is enough
 
No fouls conceded in a half is a remarkable stat but is anyone counting the number of times the ref plays advantage to City?

I'd love to see Ince try telling Kongolo or Billing that they weren't getting stuck in.
 
Paul Ince on MOTD2 last night pointing out that the Terriers never committed a foul in the first half last night and that they should be standing on our players ankles or leaving a foot in just to let our players know they're in a game. Our management should publicly call out MOTD2 for advocating teams should injure our players!

That's what I thought. A number of minor ones, but two more aggressive challenges which I'd have liked to see replays of to see whether they were as bad as the long angle suggested.
Vardy must be wondering whether he can have Marriner reffing every match.
 
What do they think they're doing, playing football? This is MMA.

Whatever happened to grabbing a shirt when you needed to foul? When did it become compulsory to get your studs into someone with your full body weight behind them?
 
So if you're being out-played you should be deliberately fouling the opponents. Great advice, old bean.

Is that how the scum almost got back in to the brighton game?
 
I know Pep and Arteta have said in the documentary that if we don't get the ball back in 5 seconds, 'make a foul' and we regain our shape - but I have absolutely no doubt that they mean a pull of the shirt, or obstruction etc...NOT as the good old English media seems to want players to do - standing on ankles, getting yellows, 'showing passion'


No wonder the national team is shit and will never amount to anything, if that's the level of expertise our kids are seeing from the top.
 
I actually get what they're trying to say though. To not be passive, to let the City players know they're in a game, and that physicality is part of it. But the way they keep phrasing it is silly.
