Deuce

Thought it fell directly in the sweet spot of it's a pen for your team but not the opposition. Seen softer given and harder not given. Hardly the crime of the century by the officials, if at all.

Didn’t Lampard get a letter and a phone call from them earlier in the season as well?

 

Yet it seems we were totally ignored / fobbed off for the ridiculous Chelsea decisions just a few months ago.

 

Think Howe said in a pre-match interview not so long ago that they had received a response from the FA, and that he was satisfied with it.

“United wrote a letter to the FA with Howe saying later: "Yes, we got a letter back and it was an enjoyable read and that’s it…"” (re: Leic, Liverpool and Man City decisions)

Are pundits saying it was a penalty in general? Seemed to recall them all mainly saying the Callum Wilson one at Arsenal wasn’t and that was no different if not more clear cut.

He’s one of the first young English players to be from the school of Italy.

 

Gerrard, Lampard, Rooney, Owen - all loved a good dive. Carragher, Scholes, Kane, Neville, Shearer all used their reputation to get away with tackles other players wouldn't.  All of them built up their "media darling" reputation and then embarked on pushing the boundaries. English media protecting their own - I get it.  

 

Problem with Gordon is that he has skipped the building a base for support among the media step and gone directly into the diving at every available opportunity.

Aye terrible divers.

 

Diving is v. frequent in English football and has been for a long time. Look at some of the penalties Owen won for England at the world cup in 98, 02 - dubious.

 

Even Sterling against Denmark. Dive.
