Sorry. No.

I'm all for us getting the rub of the green, but that is just a wrong call.

Why? having an affect on the play can be just as much mental as it does physical?

We got away with that. I would be livid if that was our goal disallowed.

Oh sure, I am really just trying to justify it to make me feel better haha.

Joe Hart sees someone standing there, therefore, he might be hesitant to dive due to the player getting a touch on the ball. That's al it take to "affect the play". Good call.

Sorry. No.

I think the call was right. I remember once when chelsea played liverpool in UCL, i dont remember the year, essien scored a similar goal but was ruled offside because of Anelka blocking the keeper's view.

Whinging at every decision

 

[bobmcfc]

Very high intensity, crowd angry, players angry. We need to calm down and try and keep the ball

Why did Fernandinho get a card?

Think it was his 3rd or 4th foul

 

[moon]

Worry is he may want to balance it out with a soft pen if he sees it at half time

 

[Pastor Kidney]

If we are getting so utterly dominated by Newcastle what will Barca do to us :/

The same but worse

 

[Mr. Aguia]

We need to make this game boring.

Sounds like a job for James Milner

Navas might be a good option. More pace to help on the counter.

 

[Proelia]

Yaya being walked by like always

Cool heads are needed now. Don't give the ref a chance to "make amends".
