5th stone wall peno not given

It was a penno but it should have been down the keepers throat before that.

Maybe mate but it's as clever to draw contact in the box and that's what he did.

If the ref did his job we'd be a goal up thanks to sterling.

Sorry, but there was nothing clever about that move. He had a great scoring chance, which he squandered by cutting inside.

Sterling FFS!

god. he goes down so easily.

What the fuck are you talking about you absolute cunt??

If the ref has just given a free kick against Otter for kicking thin air then that's a pen.

[LookMumImOnMCF.net]

Couldn't go with his left there either

[Original Dub]

My God we're fucking shiiiiiiiite

[blues2win]

It was a pen but Sterling went down a bit late.

My God we're fucking shiiiiiiiite

Not played this shit for a while.

Awful,weve offered NOTHING.

5th stone wall peno not given

Not for me. A flick on the toe ffs, that's ashley young bad mate

There was more contact than Otamendi just got booked for.

[Cocacolajojo1]

There was more contact than Otamendi just got booked for.

Yes, but still far from stone wall.

[lets all have a disco]

Shite,glad it's half time.

[branny]

Half time "wake the fuck up" needed.

That don't make it a penalty. We used to be better than the shitty "but there was contact" brigade. Sadly we appear to be losing that side of us.

Sterling has dived twice. Whether he took a flick, scrape or a bloody gust of wind is irrelevant to me, it makes him a cheat. Anyone who has said as much about ronaldo, young, Nani etc is a hypocrite to say otherwise now.

So you're saying that if the ref gave the penalty as we all now know he should have, then sterling wasn't the biggest single factor in a goal??

Yes, but still far from stone wall.

I agree and Otamendi's wasn't a free kick.

[dick dastardley]

Although sterling's been lively would like to see nacho on

We all proved we are hypocrites when Tevez signed.

Manuel: When you have to take off our only striker, you replace him with a striker!
Now we have none...

[london blue 2]

Ref has been shit but to be fair our approach to play a wounded villa has been a joke.
Brown is not a CF.

[Beefymcfc]

Bit of a sluggish half but we're getting the chances. Should've been a penalty to Sterling and the yellow for Otamendi was a bit harsh.

One thing, they keep saying that Yaya is playing further up with the 2 Ferns covering it midfield. It's not the case, Fernandinho is the one who is being released forward with Yaya venturing up every now and then when the game takes him there.

Need to pick it up 2nd half or we're in trouble of sending the ground to sleep. Villa are already nodding, don't want to get that Rag tag.

[FA cup winners 2006]

Don't think we've played that badly. Up against a team trying to impress a new manager. Villa are closing down the space well. They haven't created much. They will tire in the second half

[Original Dub]

Hold on, falling over when there is no contact is cheating.

Falling over when there is clear contact is drawing attention to a foul.

There is a big fucking difference between that penalty and Ashley fucking young ffs
