Derby go 4 up on Hull, co-comm:

That could be game over.

Do you think?

MrsGrey

That's why they get paid the big bucks.

Just got back from the tip, minor disagreement with a van driver, to see the early game (MC-Liv) is 0-0.

SuzanneClaret

And as I post MC go 1 up ;lol

IronHerb

See why Chelsea didn't fancy Salah. That's 5 great opportunities wasted in the first half hour.

IronHerb

GNev so wrong again. "His eyes are on the ball" but his boot was in his face. If it had been the keeper on Mane there would of been no doubt.
Definite red imo.

SuzanneClaret

I agree IH. Mane was in the air, off his feet and he kicks the 'keeper in the side of the head.

It's a red and not the 50/50 Henry seems to think it is.

SuzanneClaret

Head injury protocol being followed to the letter as they stretcher the Citeh 'keeper off.


Bravo on.

jay_in_cpt

Not 100% sure myself, IMO there was no intent, it's not his intention to hurt the keeper IMO & u shouldn't be sent off because the injury, saying all that it was dangerous play ;ok

IronHerb

Agree not intentional but it was reckless.

SuzanneClaret

The extent of the injury / intentional or not is not a factor when deciding if it's a red or yellow.

WHU_Champo_league_in_7_years

It was unintentional 100% but even has drop kicked Ederson in terms face really insuring him

Not sure what the problem 8s it's reckless play and it has meant the player has been stretchered off

100% a red

jay_in_cpt

Yeh it's a red I now agree , saying that I feel a bit for Mane as IMO he had to go for it... ;ok

;hmm can they recall Hart

Klopp - "The foot was not that high, the goalkeeper came out to head the ball."

;hmm

I can imagine Klopp's outrage if that was another teams player doing that to Mignolet. He might have been going for the ball but his boot is above shoulder height. Red card for me.

steve

Red all day and every day

Moojor

Can you imagine if that was AC on any keeper. There would be zero discussion anywhere that that was anything but a red.

Bazshuayi

Yes, but AC would be the one who got injured ;whistle

MunichHammer

Wasn't Adrian red for a high boot on on Vardy? two seasons back lower than this?

MrsGrey

I think that all keepers should be allowed to kick Vardy, though. In fact it ought to be obligatory.

I think that was over the ball and not over the shoulder. ;biggrin

NEoldiron

At least one team in claret & blue has managed to score this weekend - gifted by Palace

SuzanneClaret

A Crystal Palace suicidal back pass ;doh ;biggrin

baracks_a_hammer

Another couple and we can start to climb the table ;hmm

SuzanneClaret

I was thinking that....

IronHerb

1 will do.

ASLEFshrugged

I'm off down the pub, Burnley Dave will be in a buying mood....

chicagohammer

Fair game to watch, Palace look like they have more about them than Burnley - expect them to get something out of this game
