Fox92 Posted 18 January 2013 Share Posted 18 January 2013 Typical striker challenge. But lets not dwell on the negatives, it was saved and we won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReyAzarola Posted 18 January 2013 Share Posted 18 January 2013 Come on use your brains and be objective. It was a blatant penalty and the replay only confirms it. Players feel the need to go down because if they hurdle the challenge after a player comes across and obstructs it most likely won't be given despite the fact it obstructs, slows down and impedes the attacking side leaving the defending team with an advantage they should not justifiably gain. Dur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiritwalker Posted 18 January 2013 Share Posted 18 January 2013 Notwithstanding the clumsiness of Vardy's challenge I thought it was "dubious" too and that the attacker "searched" for the contact. Like so many penalties given these days. Players have become very astute at making contact with defenders in the penalty area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manwell Pablo Posted 18 January 2013 Share Posted 18 January 2013 Exactly. Very grown up of you. As if I were you I'd be rubbing it in the face of the local know it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goodie Posted 18 January 2013 Share Posted 18 January 2013 The guy is a total and utter fruit loop. What was he doing, he gave away two free kicks, then the penalty, awful performance and he wasn't on very long. Get rid not good enough for this league, I think that's a bit unfair. He comes on relatively late in a tough game and obviously wants to put himself about and impress and makes a naive challenge. The boro geezer bought the penalty but if Vardy had got the ball clean he would have been a hero! He has had an indifferent start to his LCFC career but gives his all every game he plays! It might not be good enough long term, who knows but he's come here for a relatively massive sum and been expected to produce from the off!

deep blue Posted 18 January 2013 Share Posted 18 January 2013 No I really am not joking it was a blatant penalty, and I bet also if it was Leicester attacking and it wasn't given you would be complaining I described exactly what happened. Your only retort is "it was a blatant penalty". I prefer to deal in facts whether it's for our side or against. Look at the slowmo and see what actually happened.

Manwell Pablo Posted 18 January 2013 Share Posted 18 January 2013 No it wasn't, watch a replay. Rash tackle like Whitbread's Vs Forest, but player went over, he wasn't brought down. It was 'simulation' If you don't think that's a penalty.........im lost for words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morris1234 Posted 18 January 2013 Share Posted 18 January 2013 Do you not think its out of desperation to impress at the fear of being torn to bits for doing something wrong In a league and level he's never played in before? Not saying that's an excuse as it was wreckless and you just don't go to ground like that at that time in the game, but now he knows and will learn , and will keep moving forward. Move On. Silly mistake yes and in my view Pearson should bollock him regardless of the penalty save or not...but I expect the same treatment for every player.

kingfox Posted 18 January 2013 Share Posted 18 January 2013 People were saying Vardy isn't good enough for this league, waste of £1 million last week, but he gives away a penalty in the last minute of an important game, and people defend him just because Kasper saved it. I couldn't give a shit if Kasper saved it, Vardy shouldn't of tackled in that manner in the first place, he is a very very lucky boy tonight, but I for one is not happy with his performance, giving away two free kicks in stupid areas, then a penalty of all things is simply awful. Send him out on loan, he offers nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might not be good enough long term, who knows but he's come here for a relatively massive sum and been expected to produce from the off! I'd fully understand if you were talking about a CB or a CM, as a striker, WTF are you doing in our box making a challange like that. This is why "he chases back and covers" is not any arguement to protect poor strikers. I've done my best to give Jamie Vardy the benefit of the doubt but it's clear he needs to go on loan at best. He shouldn't even be in front of Waghorn and I've said that before. P.S Any one saying that isn't a penalty should give up on football....now.

The blokes shoved his foot under Vardy and fell over! Watch the replay! This stuff is killing the game! I think we have enough bad decisions from officials (like nuggents first goal) without thinking about how we would react if the boot was on the other foot! Anyway, justice done!

inckley fox Posted 19 January 2013 Share Posted 19 January 2013 Who cares? Didnt cost us. Move on Yes, don't worry about mistakes until they start costing you points. At which point panic accordingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melrose Posted 19 January 2013 Share Posted 19 January 2013 Is it only me that gets annoyed when players cheat to get penos by throwing a leg out or leave one dangling & then over they go? I think the fans want to win at all costs these days as well as the teams! sad really and a shame! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chili_con_carne Posted 19 January 2013 Author Share Posted 19 January 2013 Vardy has had more than enough time now. Just not good enough unfortunately. I think the problem with him is he knows himself he's out of his depth. And it was a stonewall penalty! How anyone can say it wasnt a penalty is embarrassing.

melrose Posted 19 January 2013 Share Posted 19 January 2013 It was never a penalty the ref must have been very relieved when Kasper saved it! he should have been booked for simulation, I know believe me, I've hoodwinked a few refs in my time!
