[FrankMunro-371]

A wonderful bit of play acting by a footballer.

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Indeed. Valencia had 2 on target and got them both. Barca were denied by good keeping/defending and awful finishing. Another night and they are recreating their cup score v Valencia.

Absolutely. A 100% strike rate by Valencia. And surely defenders are paid to defend well. Barcelona have been well below their usual level of performance.

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Neymar very sporting in defeat.

 

[Carrotdude]

All of a sudden la liga is very very close again

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Barca *should* win all their last five games, but then they aren't beating anyone at the moment.

sounds like the ref had a tough game Leicester - WHU, but just saw the Vardy incident. Seems pretty clear simulation and a dive to me, so he got that one right. I agree about pundits changing their tone on the 'any contact' bollocks, but that's a good thing provided they stick to it. Vardy's done this before hasn't he?

Kane with a lovely strike to put Spurs 1 up

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Great strike, though maybe a little sloppy by the Stoke defenders.

 

[FrankMunro-371]

What has Danny Rose done to upset Stoke fans. He gets jeered every time he touches the ball.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Apparently, Danny Rose is getting booed because of his part in a diving incident against Stoke while playing for Sunderland four years ago.

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Thank you. I wondered what it was all about. Long memories these Stoke fans...

 

[Kenny]

Should be 2-0. Eriksen hits the bar but should have scored there.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Kane is so good. Constantly runs both centre halves into the ground, stands up to all the physical stuff and a quality finisher.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

He really is the real deal. Quality forward and can do just about everything.

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Did Danny Rose dive? Stoke City fans think so...

 

[Kenny]

Did Danny Rose dive? Stoke City fans think so...

No and that's because football fans are great when they are bitter.

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Superb pass by Erikson, and a fine finish by Alli.

 

[Kenny]

2-0 Spurs. This Alli chap is not bad at all

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Class finish.

It's been a 2-0 hammering, 5-0 would be a better reflection.

 

[FrankMunro-371]

2-0 Spurs. This Alli chap is not bad at all

Like me in my prime...!
