I thought it was naughty/snidey but clever.
However.......no further action was the correct decision,as it was inconclusive and open to interpretation.
Bot players look decent prospects,on a different note.
I just see Godfrey as a player happy to dish it out,there were a couple of other,less prominent,examples of such yesterday too.I suspect we will see more in other games.It could be that, for sure, but having watched it back a few times, I struggle to find any malicious intent by the Norwich player.
Thanks man. I'm so pleased for Abraham because he was the one I (and most Chelsea fans) were unsure about. We all knew Mount would step up and look at home at this level.
I personally don't think it was a deliberate stamp on Mount. I've seen it a few times now, and it genuinely looks like an accident to me.
It's the tactical ones they look out for these days.There is an angle which clearly showed he made a 2nd movement, away from the ball, to deliberately stamp on the player's foot.
If that isn't a deliberate foul, then none are.
I don't know but maybe he was trying to put his foot between the player's foot and the ball because he thought he was going to kick it away when he bent down to pick it up.There is an angle which clearly showed he made a 2nd movement, away from the ball, to deliberately stamp on the player's foot.

Sorry, I only watched it once last night after several pints - just goes to show you couldn't referee a match pissed up, although it would explain some decisions.It's after the ball has moved away, he changes direction, away from the ball & stamps on the bloke's foot.
That's the problem with subjective calls, I didn't think that it was a stamp and more a case of him being late to the ball and standing on his foot
You watch MOTD expecting balanced punditry and insightful analysis?I posted this in the rag thread, but did anyone notice how motd didn't analyse the palace winner. No mention of it after the highlights, the show pony getting dispossessed doing a Cruyff turn, and donut throwing another one in, are not worthy of discussion on motd apparently. Instead lets analyse the fake pen appeal's.
