ealingfox Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 (edited) The second one looks the dodgiest on first view but is actually the most stonewall after replays I reckon. Shows how difficult it is I guess. Edited 27 September 2020 by ealingfox

To be fair, within the current rules I'm 100% in agreement that they're pens. I just think, particularly the first, is in that annoying area where its both a dive and a foul within the current laws and its frustrating. It's still simulation basically. Yeah I agree but I’m trying not detract from a very good performance by over analysing it. Especially given the importance of that particular penalty. This is hardly a new thing from Vardy as well he’s won no end of penalties in a similar fashion, he’s an utter shithouse in every sense of the word, we know this. 1
dooflip Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 Soft pens but still pens. Yeah the players made the most of the contact. I would more attribute “diving” to winning things that shouldn’t have been.
Dahnsouff Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 All players know you don’t do certain things in the penalty box, and it would be nice if people stayed on their feet, but what’s even nicer is when it goes for us.

I'd be fuming if it was given against us. Fully aware it's part and parcel of the modern game (unfortunately) but it still makes me cringe watching players manufacture 'contact' then throwing themselves to the ground. Anyway, up the City Well if it was diving they would have been booked and if you noticed none of the man City players were complaining Edited 27 September 2020 by lcfc cowboys

Chrysalis Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 If you get clipped you go down, its how the game works, if you dont go down the ref usually assumes you havent been touched.
Corky Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 I thought the third looked soft and theatrical, the first two were clear. You can normally tell by the reaction of the offender and neither argued the case.
Pliskin Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 Piss off... none were dives, all three incidents were piss poor attempts at defending by a very average back line, this leaving their pants down and is with points in the bag. 1
TeamRocket Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 Dive?? You watching the same game as rest of us?
LCFOX92 Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 Exaggerated or not they're all pens first one he scoops his foot, 2nd he runs through him and third one he tackled from behind and impeded his run, how anyone can say any are suspect is just clutching at straws.

Vardy sells it much better though. But the penalty was not given for Vardy going down, but rather for him being pulled back.
Pliskin Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 I don’t know how anyone can sit here moaning about “soft penalties” given for them when Spurs had that absolute shithouse of a penalty given against them.........
Brainy Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 If these were given against us (not so much the 2nd one), there is no way any of you would accept it 1
5waller5 Posted 27 September 2020 Posted 27 September 2020 Three definite penalties. Fair play to the F*rest fan for going to the trouble of creating an account!!

You could argue the maddison one isn't enough to actually bring him down, but he is impeded and if he doesn't go down he gets nothing, and most likely that chance to score goes too. Its a foul whether maddison falls or not, but there's only one way its being given as one. He'd do the same in thr centre circle and you wouldn't be bothered. 1 hour ago, ealingfox said: Don't feel great about getting three penalties in one game, but the first 2 were stonewall. Third one I'd not have complained if it was waved away. 15 minutes ago, Corky said: I thought the third looked soft and theatrical, the first two were clear. You can normally tell by the reaction of the offender and neither argued the case. Maddison was actually clipped by Mendy (probably accidentally, but doesn’t matter), and that’s what brought him down. It was not from the hand on the shoulder. BTW, I think all PK decisions are automatically reviewed by VAR. Edited 27 September 2020 by NaijaFox
