He's not daft, Shrek had just scored his 200th goal and he knew the cameras would all be on him. Although I'd have preferred a clobbering, I wouldn't want to be seen as a bitter fucker live on TV. Looked very forced.
Do you think he'd have been better legging it after Sterling and congratulating him on the effort he's just put in for HIS team to get HIM out of the shit?
Yes, I do, but when I saw how he reacted it seemed to be in sarcasm rather than respect. Do you really think he ran around in circles just to get to Shrek? If so, why didn't he just make a beeline?
As always, just an opinion mate.
Everyone's allowed an opinion mate. I just think what Pep did is in poor taste, especially whilst the passion is running high after just having the fat prick celebrate in front of our own fans.
I totally agree but I don't think it was intentional, more he just ended up there and had to calm down.
As you've said, we were all angry after the first half, me, mainly, because we should have been 2 up and yet we find ourselves behind with a man short. My err was with Sergio, Silva and the ref, with a little frustration with Pep, although with so many chances, I couldn't complain too much. That anger claimed in the second half as I thought we took it to them and it was only their cheating, underhand ways that got them through. Again, we were far the better team and on another day could have come away winners without having a man sent off.
I'd like to see the full view of what Pep did at the end of the match as I saw a Sky edited version where they seemed to show only what they wanted.
