Just seen a video of Cahill deliberately kicking a prone defenceless Kane hard in the arse just near the touchline in the 76th minute. He was pissed off because Kane was on the ground shielding the ball and he wanted to get on with play. Why the fuck is no retrospective action being taken against Cahill? No mention of that by Mourinho in his post match rant. Have Sky been running endless replays?

Not bothered with Sky today as it will be one big Candle-fest for the passing of Stevie Starfish. However, I'm fairly sure there won't be 'Trial by Sky' as we've seen in the cases of Mario et al as this is one of the England members who happens to play for Maureen.

Cahill could have got a red for the Danny Rose challenge and if that had not gone in, and Rose not got up so fast, it surely would've been. Cahill, like so many other England favourites (Wiggy, Sterling etc) will only get retrospective bans if it is in the public interest, and Sky decide what is in the public interest.

It looked very nasty and vicious.
A few bans and suspensions kicking in for the chavs (ho ho) could be interesting

I see most people missed he kicked him, then stamped his ankle.

Didn't Ade get 5 matches for that?

Doesn't answer the question but reminded me of that game. Haha what a moment.

That Adebayor video is a classic. Not sure about this one though.

Even if he'd have gotten a yellow for the rose challenge, i think he was already booked so he shouldn't even have been on the pitch to attack kane later on.

Absolute joke.

the rose challenge is a red at any other point in the game, funny how commentators only chuckled about rose getting clattered.

Kicking and stomping on Kane nowhere near getting the actual ball should be looked at? It's a bit much, tbh.

Not to mention that fucker has the biggest head I've ever seen outside of a caricature drawing.

Nice.

However, it just goes to show the paucity of quality defenders available for the England national side, when such a mediocre, talentless thug is the first choice on the team sheet.

Never fails to amaze me how some players seem to get away with violent conduct on a regular basis - Fellaini is another one. It's almost as though they have a licence to cripple. Worse than diving in my opinion.

Don't want Cahill suspended , he was absolute garbage last night and Terry no better .

They are the best garbage they have though

Let me get this straight. Apparently the match referee saw Cahill deliberately kick Kane hard in the arse so there will be no retrospective action. How can a referee see that and not give Cahill a red card? Absolute disgrace. He should never referee a first class match again.

It was Phil Dowd.

Cahill has had a charmed season this is incident is one of a list he has got away with. Jose saw it that is the reason for his smoke screen whinge.

He no doubt claimed he didn't see it as he was eating a meat pie at the time....

And that's the only reason I wouldn't want retrospective action for diving - every City player who fell over would be banned, but any England player, especially those playing for the Sky 4, could throws themselves over in the centre circle and be awarded a penalty.

Three perfect examples this weekend of referees that should be made explain their actions.

Three huge decisions right in front of each one and for some completely unknown reason, pretended not to see anything.

Can you tell me which clubs these players play for?

After Mourinho's comments about the media having "an agenda" against Chelsea, the pundits and press seem to scared to highlight it.

No mention on MoTD. As if it never happened.

BBC were all over the Mangala incident against Everton.
