Kanj Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 It's a case of the injury being worse than the offence in my opinion. Bad tackle that could possibly have been given a red but you see challenges than that all the time, they just go by without much mention because no one got hurt. Spot on, he's obviously meant to bring him down but I very doubt he's tried to 'do' him otherwise he wouldn't have needed 3 go's at it. I'm sure he wouldn't want to do in a fellow Frenchman that's mates with the rest of our squad and possibly even friends? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 I always laugh at the whole "do that in the street and you'd get locked up" argument, as if football matches take place on Northumberland Street. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 I always laugh at the whole "do that in the street and you'd get locked up" argument, as if football matches take place on Northumberland Street. I'm not sure 'but I got the ball' would wash with the police after any sort of tackle on a fellow shopper tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aphrodite Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Bo**ocks to Nasri injury, its payback time for Ben Arfa's double leg break and not even a yellow card!! What goes around comes around!!! City will just have to take it on the chin like we did...... Sounds like you've very much taken it on the chin Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spot on, he's obviously meant to bring him down but I very doubt he's tried to 'do' him otherwise he wouldn't have needed 3 go's at it. I was surprised he took so long staying down and that he was time-wasting. The tackle wasn't that bad to cause that kind of injury. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveMc Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Mapou's head went a bit after the incident. Taking out a French international (team-mate of many of the most influential players on your own club side) in a world cup year doesn't sound like the right way to get a ticket to Brasil Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughesy Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 I obviously need to watch the tackle again, but it looked nothing more than a yellow to me? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 One of those tackles that I wish they'd make a red, but as the rules stand is a definite yellow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parky Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Gone right up in my estimation. Done one of the most hated players in the history of the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Icke - Son of God Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Gone right up in my estimation. Done one of the most hated players in the history of the game. Likewise.

Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 The second swing was more a clumsy last ditch effort to win the ball back rather than being anything nasty, I'm on the fence as to whether or not it was bad enough to be a red.

BrettNUFC Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 I wouldn't have complained had it been a red, after seeing the replay but i don't think it's bad enough to make a big fuss about it and say it's definitley a red. Could have went either way really. He got the yellow and that should have been the end of the matter but because the injury sustained was serious, it's been made into something it isn't.

nufcjb Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Nasri can fuck right off and take that injury. He was such a dirty diving bastard when at Arsenal and his little niggles with Joey Barton clearly made me hate him from there. Deserves the karma, the prick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Couldn't give a single fuck about Nasri to be honest, just hope it doesn't affect Mapou at all in terms of mentality and also his international chances. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benwell Lad Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Really like MYM. He is a very good defender with great pace too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Our player did NOT get a red card in a time where we need him on the pitch due to Debuchy's suspension and Colo's injury...therefore, people moaning about what should and shouldn't be a red card (which I'm guilty of defending our MYM), is pretty worthless right? In times of doubt, I'll generally side with our player no matter what. No time or place to worry about Samir fucking Nasri who plays for a club that once employed a man who broke our most talented player's leg in 2.

Guest DebuchyAndTheBeast Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Some Man City fans talking about a horror tackle. MYM could've got a red for the 2 successive fouls especially the last one but putting it in the same category as McManaman on Haidara or Dossena against Hull is just stupid Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
