Giibbs will miss have to keep the boat. After or by brazil Baines will be no 1. I reckon he'll still be for the euros but Shaw will take over after that.

Yes it Ramirez. Brown got a slight touch on the ball but only very slight. But that doesn't matter, the rules say a reckless flying challenge from behind is a red card offence, end of story. Quite what the ref was thinking I hjave no idea. What makes it worse is that Dejan Lovren was also stretchered off after defending the clearance from that incident. Had the ref stopped the game as he should our best centre back wouldn't have got injured as well.

Saw it this morning and it looked from the side and he got the ball then the man after ? Unless I'm thinking of another challenge ?

Just a quick one for anyone watching the spurs game. I know they never get given, but surely Bony should have had a penalty for that push.
Anyone who's not watching it, corner comes in, Dawson is caught flat footed and Bony gets up above him to head the ball. Dawson takes takes 2 hands and clearly shoves him so he does not get his head on it. Referee did have a very very good view of it, is it not about time they started to give these as it is becoming a regular thing now for defenders to shove forwards so they can't get a head on the ball and to be honest it is starting to get on my nerves that outside of the box they will always give these.
BTW, this is not a dig at the ref involved, but it just seems that this is acceptable in modern day football

Totally agree, I can accept a bit of hassle and tussle. But two hands shoving in the back is a pen all day long. Ref had a view clear as day too!

It's a clear penalty - if that had happened outside the box then a foul is given
I still dint know how Skrtel gets away with his shirt pulling - it's a clear foul in the box so should be a pen

i didn't want to mention Skrtel, as I do not like to bad mouth my beloved LFC, but he is one of the biggest culprits for this type of defending.

Luiz has just taken out Hazard and Phil Dowd gave Hazard a free kick :lol:
Quite funny to watch because it looked like he was about to book someone for it

As blatant as you can get! Oh, and how did Welbeck not get one this afternoon? Another no-brainer.
It was a blatant attempt to bodycheck Jones, which he did, and made minimal contact on Hazard, but Hazard saw it coming so dived out of the way! I can't say I blame him, either.
How that man is still on the pitch is utterly beyond me! It must be his hair or something!

Is that the challenge from Azpilculeta ( spelling ) ?!
Did he already have the shot when the challenge came in ?

How is that a red card ?
It's a clumsy challenge but it's a yellow card not a red
If challenges like that are red then the game has gone soft

And that two footed jumping in tackle from Rafael is what should be a red

i think it was the intent that got him the red card. He was not even close to the ball he just wanted to hack hazard down, but still a bit harsh, but understandable why he got red.
That was disgraceful, that is the sort of tackle they have tried to remove from football.
so one red and one yellow. But the wrong way round. Loosing Vidic for a few games will hurt them more than if it had been the correct way round.

I never said it was a red card, it should have been a penalty and a yellow for Azpilicueta (I think it was), but I never said it was a sending off! Oh, and whether or not he'd already taken a shot is totally & utterly irrelevant. In fact, it's not just a tackle from behind, it's also a late tackle from behind!
It's Luiz who should have been sent off, probably twice!
As for the Rafael tackle, although he took the ball in a beautifully timed tackle, those tackle are outlawed and he should have gone for sure.
The Vidic red ......................... totally laughable.
Slime.
think wires are crossed here, Phil's "how is that a red" was in reference to Vidic.

Not surprising the way I'm feeling right now!
Just to put the record straight this is what should have happened.
Azpilicueta - yellow card & penalty against.
Luiz - Red card
Luiz - probably another red card.
Vidic - Yellow card
Rafael - Red card & transfer list!

if only footy were so simple. We'd hae nothing to talk about on here...........
