when_you're_smiling Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 Can’t believe the media narrative to be honest. If the Vardy incident had happened with an Arsenal player it wouldn’t even be mentioned (like the disallowed goal.) If a Leicester player had put their studs through an Arsenal player’s knee, no matter how accidental, there would be full on hysteria.

Utterly ridiculous if he gets done on this. Exactly. There's a difference between a player clearly fouling/hurting another player and then putting his hands up, acting as if he did nothing wrong and not even checking on the opponent - Think Arsenal and Tottenham players - and a player showing immediate concern and being magnanimous which Vardy obviously was. I hope this is taken into account but being Vardy and that he is on the Golden Boot, I'm not so sure.
stripeyfox Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 some lovely Vardy hating here: https://arsenal-mania.com/forum/threads/pl-arsenal-vs-leicester-city-tuesday-7th-july-ko-20-15-bst-sky-sports.34289/page-78 He is such a little rat. Without his football talents he would be the drunk **** in the pub picking fights with everyone, only to finally go home and beat up his girlfriend. Must have the most punchable face of any PL footballer. Can’t stand that piece of trash! Source has confirmed to me he has been wearing an "All Lives Matter" shirt under his kit, since the restart. Made a dog drink alcohol until it died about 20 years ago too, human garbage imo. Should be in jail, but is instead the nation's sweetheart...the world is a ****ed up place these days.
Ashley Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 If he was looking at Mustafi yes. He isn't looking... what else is he supposed to do with his leg?
HankMarvin Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 Probably tried to kick out at him but didn’t mean to get him in the chops

Haywood_6 Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 I've got to be honest, i think he did swing out at him. But probably didn't mean to get him smack in the face
Leicester_Loyal Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 Surely he isn't actually going to get banned for that? Wouldn't surprise me if he does though.

whoareyaaa Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 nothing in it really, just unfortunate his face was in the way
Kendal Fox Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 Hopefully this is correct though it is the Mail - https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-8501903/Jamie-Vardy-escape-punishment-kicking-Shkodran-Mustafi-head.html
stripeyfox Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 More from Arsenalmania: Vardy can get away with kicking a man in the head. Evans can get away with 2 clear elbows. So ****ing typical. Ndidi is a player who commits 200 fouls per game on us and never gets booked either. Piss off.
Nicolo Barella Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 I think he probably meant to kick Mustafi a little, but not in the face. No chance there's retrospective action if the ref noted it down in the match report.
Bert Posted 8 July 2020 Author Posted 8 July 2020 12 minutes ago, Ashley said: If he was looking at Mustafi yes. He isn't looking... what else is he supposed to do with his leg? His left leg/foot plants the ground before he extends it to Mustafis face. There’s no way on earth that fall caused that movement.
stripeyfox Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 It is clear to me. A red card. Mustafi clearly headbuts Vardy's leg. Use of headbut is straight red
DerbyshireFox Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 The fact that with all the Arsenal love in on the coverage last night Geoff Shreeves has no idea what ‘challenge’ Arteta was crying about in his interview tells you it’s absolutely nothing worth mentioning! Passing the buck for them not taking their chances when they were in the ascendancy. He basically thinks Nketiah should not go because he’s young and a nice lad. If JJ’s leg was planted it would have been broken. We know the kid didn’t mean it, but it endangers an opponent. Vardy has no idea where Mustafi is when they land, realises he catches him and immediately checks in him. We know he’s no angel, but there’s absolutely no comparison or any intent there whatsoever

Haha the dog story was a spoof wasn't it? Amazing.

stripeyfox Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 Arsenal could have / should have finished us off when they were on top. Kasper made some great saves and we could have been dead and buried. But they didn't and they're pissed off about it - which I get. But that's football

A Twitter "joker" leaked an "extract" from Vardy's (then) upcoming book about him making a dog drink beer (or something)

lgfualol Posted 8 July 2020 Posted 8 July 2020 I think he wanted to leave a lil something on Mustafi, but didn't mean to catch his face.
