Poch is slowly evolving into Martin Samuel

Yep its nothing new. Lineker used to like a tumble for England and even Owen did much to Pochettino displeasure. It has just got slowly worse over time.

Any contact a player makes, players drop to the ground, if they over run the ball they will fall down. Its become so normal in the game no one batters an eyelid until it reaches the penalty area.

If you watch early premier league games you keep expecting players to fall or go down at the nearest collision and it doesn't happen as often, but the game is changing where everyone wants to influence the ref or highlight contact was made

Its at the point of no return now, because a zoomed in camera of boots touching is deemed as a foul, everything is almost a forensic analysis.

I blame punditry of the likes of Hansen who criticized refs for years. Claiming "contact" to lay into the ref, who didn't have the luxury of multiple replays

The game has changed so much, its faster, stronger, tactically better but a whole lot stricter with the laws of the game

I've shown this before, but it's even more relevant now.

Just watching an interview with the L***s owner, Andrea Radrizzani. He seems a decent fella.

Considering.

Bamford misses a sitter and Leicester break and score, terrible back pass though.

Just turned on the Fulham/West Brom game (fuck knows why!). That Baggies third kit is, er, vivid!

you've only go yourself to blame.

Shocking defending now Leicester can sit back and use the speed of Vardy on the break.

Mendy must be bloody knackered - playing for us, in goal for Chelsea and I have just heard his name mentioned for Leicester, on the radio commentary tonight!
