I think so. Mané being Mané he made a bit of a meal of it, but there was a definite push. Leicester will be pissed off, but in all fairness they made few chances of note.
Driving back home up the M6 whilst the match was on. Listened on the radio and it seemed Leicester have not changed, constant fouling to deny any breaks to the opposition. Radio 5 suggested Choudry's tackle was a "professional foul" an expression I hate. Salah is now injured, hopefully just for the international break, but that type of challenge should be a sending off offence. Poetic justice we got a late penalty and won, even nicer if it was not really a penalty. I will judge after watching MOTD.
Great win but hope Salah is ok. That Choudhury guy needs to get a grip, pull him down yes but when you go in like that you could cause injury and he's got previous for it.
I was thinking i'd go over to Bluemoon to see how the Berties reacted, but I don't think I can take the bitterness. I can feel it seeping thru my monitor already
That was a red for me. Well we now have the stupid international break, Salah isn't called up, so he can rest up.
trouble was that although a professional foul it was a lunge from behind which put all the weight of the tackle thru Salahs ankle .Was a pen and was never going to be overturned though they kept looking at it for some reason which seemed a bit odd since Mane was kicked in the back of his legs .
Totally agree with Garlic Totally poetic Not sure on the pen tbh I siding more with no Said it before if utd got that against us I would be fuming which is how I judge all pens lol However Leicester were fouling all over the place - with pro fouls The period the brought Leicester back into the game was bourn From a blatant foul on Salah And there were plenty that went unpunished so Poetic for me
We had any number of good positions but the passing in the final third was pretty woeful. As i said at HT a shout out to Lovren who played well today.. If the Toon beat ManU we will have 3x their points
Yeah Lovren was good. I thought Leicester would be better, if not for our finishing and decision making we'd have won easily.
Yep he did someone earlier in the season A ‘professional’ foul is when you take someone out nicely - not try and injure Disgusting tackle Little ****bag imho And I agree I expected Rodgers to provide better side than that Got what they deserved today Now they are bleating about it would it have happened at other end I give you Kane v Spurs.
