I blame Moss and VAR

Moss can’t possibly look at that and decide there was no contact. An experienced professional ref should be able to call that right 100% of the time. When you think of some of the penalties both red cheat teams get awarded, it’s quite worrying for the integrity of the game

As for VAR.. how do you explain that. It’s not incompetence as they had every angle and as much time they wanted to call the right decision.. impossible to decide anything but tell Moss he’s got it wrong and tell him to look at it

so what was it? They’re either reluctant to publicly highlight the refs incompetence .. or they’re corrupt to the core

That non pen was one of the best moments Mike reilly and his band of bent cunts could have used it and said see we will give penalties for players trying to be honest
We all sit here slagging salad and martial off for diving. We'll do you know what that's what we should do if foden stays down screaming he gets a pen

If this happens to Phil in a Champs League final or something I want him to hit the deck squealing like a pig. Being honest gets you nowhere I’m afraid.

can somebody not question the officials and VAR after night ? it could have cost city a fair 3 points
football should be fair for everybody and both teams shake hands and walk off. but when you see what happen tonight clear cheating by the officials that can not be defended by video

clearly they don't want city winning the league.. if they can get utd back in the title race by turning a blind eye to a stone wall pen and a sending off. then city will know after tonight we have to kill the game off as quickly as possible and take the officials out of the game ?

i leave you with this go and watch the game utd vs southampton then watch tonights game
clearly cheating is going on and the game is bent

I don't often level the cheating angle because it difficult to prosecute beyond all reasonable doubt but bugger me drunk that's as good as it gets I reckon and that's with my sky blue hat on believe me.

I can't find any evidence based on what we saw presuming the ref in charge of VAR tonight saw what we saw how he couldn't refer Moss to have a look.

Pathetic , incompetent and blatant questions must be asked and its not often I get worked up about a decision for or against but this one was a shocker.

I suspect we won't even get an apology in due course.

Yep. The whole communication should be "from my angle it looked like he got the ball first. He didn't? Well it's a pen and a card then". If it can't solve these then let's just go back to the ref not seeing it and saying they level out over the season.

"from my angle it looked like he got the ball first. He didn't? What colour shirt has the fouled player got on? - blue? - no pen! ".

I never think Ederson will save any

Hasnt saved a league one since 17/18 season. Not sure about other cups

 

[mimicmickmickdoyle]

I'm afraid to say we are going to need at least x 3 ,4 ,or 5 goals a game till the League is won to beat these cheating fuckers.

 

[give it to gordon]

I think whatever happens this season there’s a fairly sizeable rebuild on the cards over the next 12 months. Tonight proved that in some ways. We’ll probably look back at Gundo’s goals in December and January as a pivotal point in the season.

Hats off to Mahrez as I was always against signing him but tonight proves he contributes significantly at key points in games.

Really you do know City have just finished a 21 match winning streak playing every 3 days ?
Plus we have a joung squad on the whole

He was felled but got up quickly as a true professional he is.

Nevertheless as stonewall a penalty as you will ever see.

 

[Bluearmy]

the keeper making a foul stopping a clear goal scoring attempt is a red card all day long

Law changed so no sending off anymore in that instance

Exactly. I honestly don’t ”admire” Phil for his attempt at honesty, lol, as it’s blatant and if he went down even Moss wouldn’t have not given the initial pen, and I guarantee it wouldn’t have got overturned.
