Not really deserved though, Swansea should be winning comfortably.

Seriously? WH been much better imo.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Not for me, just regressed to their old hoof it to Carroll and hope Fatty Nolan picks up the scraps style.

Fair enough,I agree they're much better without AC maybe even KN.Sakho and Noble better players.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

This must be the weekend for crazy red cards.

 

[NorwayFB]

Carroll heads in a corner,2-1

Fabianski sent off when Sakho is through

 

[slink]

That's a shocking decision. Sakho has the same chance that he would have had Fabianski not bumped into him.

 

[slink]

Referees get worse every week and Frank or whoever else can say what a good job they do and how hard it is but they simply do not get the game and constantly make bad decisions and change games.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

I'm in two minds about that one, Fabianski has certainly fouled him, just because he appears to be made from the same stuff as those chinese lanterns and Sakho barges through him doesn't really make it any less of a foul.

 

[slink]

It's never a red card. Sakho uses his hand to take it past Fabianski to start with and i can understand the referee not seeing that but he has the same chance that he would have had there not been any contact. Fabianski doesn't even try to foul him, he tries to pull out and Sakho's momentum takes him into the keeper.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

It doesn't matter if he tries to pull out or not, there doesn't have to be malicious intent for it to be a foul, Fabianski has caught him when clean through, it's definitely a foul.

I can see the arguement that it isn't a red because Sakho has still managed to get by him and so hasn't really been denied a clear goal scoring opportunity but there's absolutely no doubt it's a foul.

 

[slink]

Once Sakho goes round him and gets the chance then it's not a foul, he's not denied him anything and so the referee has to play on.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

He's made significant contact, that's a foul whether or not Sakho get's knocked down, arguably not a red card but certainly a foul.

If Sakho doesn't get the ball on the other side or his chance at scoring is made significantly harder then i agree but neither happened, he goes round Fabianski and then has the same chance with or without contact in my opinion. The referee blew before he shot though and so had he scored it wouldn't have counted. Referee got it wrong in my book.

 

[NorwayFB]

Usjoa scores an easy one,1-0 Leicester

 

[NorwayFB]

Clark 1-1

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Very poor defending for the Aston Villa goal. It was a very good header, but he was unmarked from a free kick.

I don't think that makes any difference to whether or not it's a foul, all that does for me is determine whether or not he's denied a clear goalscoring opportunity and thus earnt himself a red card. I don't see anything wrong with him judging it to be a foul, regardless of Sakho going round him or whether or not it ended up in the net, a yellow card is probably a fairer punishment though.

If you had a player trying to keep the ball out of the goal with his hands then it's a foul for handball regardless of whether or not he is successful in his attempts, same applies for me here, Fabianski is nowhere near the ball and certainly catches Sakho, intent or not, so it's a foul.

Contact doesn't automatically mean it's a foul and because Sakho goes around him and takes the shot you can't give the free kick at all. The only way the ref can give a free kick is if he denies him the chance to score and he doesn't so for me it should have been play on and play from the ball hitting the post.

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Not a great tackle by Vardy. Westwood being stretchered off.

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Ulloa does like the amateur dramatics....
