Leic. C v Man U - Rafael penalty

[DaveMac]

As no one has mentioned it thought I would. Are we all in agreement that the Leicester player clearly fouled Rafael before he then made the challenge for the penalty. Which I think was fairly soft.

For me the Leicester player flicking his arm out stopped it being just a shoulder to shoulder challenge.

It was definitely a foul by Rafael; but the problem is that there was definitely a foul on Rafael about five seconds prior.

But I'm not going to complain about any refereeing this week since we got away with a pretty obvious handball in the penalty area :S

Forget the issues, 10 out of 10 to man u for their continuing comedy value

Nothing else comes close

Innit! Lord knows what Ade was doing in the box like that. Still we were so poor I doubt a penalty against us would have made much difference. We had one shot on target, at home that's terrible.

Clear foul on Rafael in the build up and just about a foul on Vardy afterwards, although his reaction was OTT.

What are people's thoughts on the Blackett red card? No doubt about the penalty, but not sure it was DOGSO.

I don't really care though, all part of the United soap opera. I'm loving every minute!

Ade looked really poor yesterday. So did Vlad. I'd say the only bright spots were Lamela and Eriksen for us.

Nailed on DOGSO for me. Through on goal, clear shot, so even from a relatively tight angle it's an ovious opportunity to score a goal for me.

Funny how Van Gaal didn't talk again about winning the league after THIS match

Ah my fellow tottenham fans, oh how we rejoice in the merry go round of our game. Didn't watch the game but was meant to be one of worst performances ever at the lane. I miss the days of Bale, Modric and Van Da Vaart lighting up the game.

Even despite Bill's famous words, I cannot see what glory has echoed in some our recent performances.
