Just seen it for the first time. It's a penalty. Anyone who thinks it isn't needs help.

You're going to have to help me understand how an immensely powerful 6'3'' 15 stone man falls over,in a very unnatural fashion,as a result of the most innocuous of touches to his trailing foot,while at the same time,still managing to stare at the referee for his reaction?

He was looking for it and exaggerated when going to ground which can usually does go against the ref giving the decision(dishonest). Would City have been given that penalty in the same circumstances? You only need to look at 4-5 more clear cut clams we have had this season, many of them were in games that finished up a draw, possible points that could have us far better placed to challenge for the title than we are right now. Having said that I suppose we'd have wanted a penalty in the same situation, the fact that we've been robbed of more clear cut penalties all season and had other fans try an defend said shit decisions(some of the dippers piping up whenever we drop points) makes it all the more hard to swallow.

Carra on Sky was right. I was bemused as much he was that people was questioning it he looked flabbergasted !! Looked pretty clear cut to me. Sky being Sky hyped the crap out of it tho, instead of accepting Alan Pardrew was just frustrated and saying stuff he doesn't mean ! they always look for controversy or the "scoope" he was right to have a pop at Shreeves who is the worst of the lot at pushing people's buttons when they are down giving them a right good kicking ! very evil man.. case in point him telling Ivanovic he won't play in the CL final a few years ago and basically milking the popularity of it afterwards.

Sky are finished and trying to stay relevant. Sad.

Pardrew should blame his defender for giving Benteke the opportunity to go down. Dumb defenders should never slide in the box that is the first rule you are taught when you play footie at 8 years old.

Was is Shreeves whose first question to Carlos was, "Was it a dive?"

Complete and utter tosspot!
 
Collymore was in proper rant mode earlier. Slagging off every single pundit who said it was a pen. He actually said the only reason Carragher and Neville thought it was a pen was because they both played for clubs who had players who deliberately cheated to win penalties and the only reason Henry was saying the same was because he was a cheat himself.

I take it you're not an athlete. It's about balance at high speed. Take a look in slow motion the affect the contact has on Benteke's foot.
As I've already said, he makes a meal of it with a flourish after he goes to his knees but I think it's a pen.

Watch a tap tackle in rugby. No rugby player would lose their balance from what happened to Benteke. His feet don't hit each other. He feels contact, bends both knees and throws his ankles in the air. You're talking shite.

And to answer I'm quite the athlete yes (what sort of idiotic remark was that?!? As if you can body shame me into admitting defeat because I'm "not an athlete") I'm actually roughly the same size as Benteke, or was when I was his age and at 6' 3" and 15 stone there is no way the slight brushing of a knee on his foot impeded him. He even states afterwards "I think there was contact" which totally ignores the fact that 'contact' has nothing to do with it. Was he impeded? No, he wasn't.

Wow. Even Collymore gets the odd one right.

Why you still think feet have to hit each other I don't know. I agree he exaggerates the fall but the hit to the foot does unstable him.
Shame you've resorted to insults.

Roy H just been on clarifying his policy on taking a group of players he trusts to the Euros, not players who have shown even outstanding form throughout the whole season.

He stands by it, so at least it should be nice and easy for the FA to sack him if and when we flounder thanks to having a bunch of trusted out of form crocks out there.

Yet another failure that can be chalked down to fear.
