Looks to me like his toe might of hit his sock.

even if he did touch him you don’t go down like that unless someone hoofs you.

The only defence is he’s expecting a clattering and trying to get out of the way ,but that’s a stretch!
Way I see it is,he’s expecting a challenge so plays to it.
He probably goes 1sec too early tho.
Not a bad effort Tbf.
8.5/10 🤷‍♂️

Sure Salah & Gakpo will give him some pointers 😝
 
Zoom in on Doms right leg and defenders left leg - that’s contact and unfortunately as we have seen over the last 30 years it gives the player the excuse to go down and “earn” the penalty
Well for me if the defender has both feet planted on the floor and the striker runs into him that’s not a penalty.

it didnt warrant the dive either.
 
Not sure what the length of supporting the club matters when looking at the current state of the team/club

It’s entirely relevant and I’m rather perplexed that you can’t see that a decades-long supporter of a club perhaps has a little more understanding of that club than someone who supports their biggest rivals!

It doesn’t warrant the player going over the way he did but the defender left leg isn’t planted - he has gone for the ball missed , Dom has felt the smallest of touches as well as anticipated the tackle and gone to ground - it’s the type of penalty awards that shouldn’t be given but we see every season

so basically Phil you’re agreeing with us that he took a dive to win the penalty.
He cheated.
You don’t need to sugar coat it 👍🏻

I think it’s one of them that the crowd influenced the ref.


He has a flick at the ball but the contact isn’t enough and the ref and VAR should see that,

Mcallisters red bit of a joke.
there’s a lot of tackles like that and if that’s a red we’re going to see a lot of them.
 
Going off on Tangents.
Talking to the City lot tonight and they think that Spurs “ Got away with one tonight” re a handball. Ave seen the clip and it was nailed on for me. However as the fans said. “ a nailed on foul during Wolves was not given” so is this one to level it out. Whether it is or not. It’s two shocking decisions.

To be fair, he does hear lots and lots about Man Utd, as he probably follows hundreds of "I hate Man Utd" groups on twitter. So he can always come on here to give us his informed opinions :)

It’s odd you should say that because I am on a few City sites and we get a few fans on from other teams and the rammel they spout. It’s unbelievable. But like the super cup final the other night. A guy walked into the City end in a Utd shirt. 😳
He must have a chromosome missing. How he got out alive Al never know. How he thought it was a good idea. How he even got in the ground is beyond me.

He might have been an American, who tells everyone he is a big Manchester fan. Then he hears Manchester are in the final and gets tickets. It is only when he arrives it dawns on him that there are 2 clubs in Manchester....doh

Why do you constantly pretend to have spoken to people in real life to express your opinions about football?

What the imaginary people in the James Joyce Irish pub in Athens last night. When people talk of there
“ experiences”, do you think they lie in bed at night making them up. You constantly question people experiences as irrelevant. Which ironically make a lot of your posts irrelevant.
 
Must admit, the MacAllister red card was a ridiculously harsh decision having just seen it. If those are automatic reds, then I reckon there'll be a few. The challenge on Bruno Fernandes early in half last night would be a similar red.
 
You make some good points occasionally, but I don't get why you are so rude and argumentative on such a regular basis? Are you like this in real life?
I ask myself questions like “would You want to play 18 holes with someone like that”. The answer is always the same.
 
We love you Lucy, we do
We love you Lucy, we do
We love you Lucy, we do
Oh, Lucy we love you.
