While the abuse continues the message should be pushed for me. Sure, but the commentators don't even notice or mentions it anymore (on Swedish telly anyway), it's just a delay to the kick off and nothing more by now. Think they should switch it up a bit and find the next way to promote and highlight the issue. Not sure how thou. One thing might be to not give yellow or red cards to players who walks off the pitch when they are abused like we've seen in Italy and a few other leagues.

If they were booked first time it might discourage them from doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted February 13, 2021 Moderator Share Posted February 13, 2021 Salah now is becoming a problem - there's clearly a reluctance to do anything about him because of who he is and he's absolutely throwing himself to the ground in just about every game. Sooner or later a centre half or manager is going to take umbrage and there will be trouble. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Salah, Kane, Sterling, Fernandes... All rather good at falling down in the box for no other reason than to buy penalties. Neither gets called out for it or punished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Leicester picking up a fair few injuries. Evans probably wont come out for second half, Castagne & Fofana have hamstring problems, James Justin out for the season ACL. Perfect timing for our game next week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted February 13, 2021 Moderator Share Posted February 13, 2021 Leicester have been really poor today - I don't think they can have any complaints about being behind, no matter how unlikeable the goalscorer is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulC Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 They have been good today. Pressed really well. Leicester have played into their hands though and have been really sloppy in possession. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Kabak getting a yellow for that while TAA got away with pulling on the arm and shirt on Barnes. Classic ref bias towards foreign and new to the league players compared to established ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Not a fan of these ones given as penalties as I feel the contact is outside the box, but seen then given as pens a bunch of times this season so as always no consistency from the refs.

Will be just 1 league win in 5 games and goals dried up so think it's a decent time to play them next weekend particularly with them playing europa.

OutByEaster? Posted February 13, 2021 Moderator Share Posted February 13, 2021 Ref says goal, linesman says no, replay says no goal, VAR looks at replay and says goal. You may as well toss a coin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
