No mention of this after the initial incident on BT Sport. This was definitely more of a penalty than the Odegaard one and probably more than Bernardo's. Defenders need to know that hands around the upper body of players is a penalty. Only way of doing this is giving penalties every time they do it. Maguire would be forced to retire. Hands touching the player to keep distance is fine but arms around stop movement and should be penalised.

Something is afoot at Chelsea. Lukaku spitting out his dummy, iffy results, etc. They'll draw today and that will be just fine. I'd prefer them to win.

A Chelsea win would do me too puts the scouse back in their covid riddled box. Don't see it for today now that he has dropped Lukaku

No difference at all to the decision Ronaldo got at Norwich where we were told it's a stonewall penalty as grabbing a player with both hands is a foul.

Slippy G is quietly slipping down the league now, shame.

Arsenal could face FA action after Rodri was pelted with missiles as he celebrated his epic late winner on Saturday.

Bottles, missiles and toilet rolls were hurled at the Manchester City midfielder from a section of the Emirates support in the 93rd minute.

Referee Stuart Attwell is set to include the incident in his report despite stewards quickly moving to push Rodri away from the flashpoint.


Who takes a toilet roll to the match :lol: Was Darren Fletcher there!!?

A Burnley player, I think Matt Lowton, was actually struck on the head by a full bottle at Leeds. Terrible really. This has happened in France a bit this season and the French FA have ordered games to be played behind closed doors as a result.

Be interesting to see what our useless counterparts consider a punishment
