the pen was HARSH, no doubt bout it. and shearer just confirmed it. no way the ref could have known/seen laurent's knee getting gabriel down. the ref dint have all these replays and the decision to give the pen was simply because he thought gabriel was first to the ball. even the linesman had not given a foul and the ref just got lucky with the decision. but u have to say that the pen was HARSH.

also szczesny just deserved a yellow. why a red? shearer gives an argument and i completely agree.

also the 2nd yellow was stupid. no way was it a 2nd yellow. but is laurent got a 2nd, then vlaar and westwood both deserved to be sent out too. so no way can u say that the ref helped arsenal. all he did was screw them over bad.

The pen was harsh, but the right call even if made for the wrong reasons. I think Szczesny should have been sent off for denying a clear goal-scoring opportunity.That's the rule. Shearrer may not like it but that's the rule. Laurent deserved the second yellow. It was a late tackle and yellow card all day long. And that's exactly what the ex-international ref said in the Jazeera studio.

I didn't see the Vlaar or Westwood challenges so I can't comment on them.

This is completely uncalled for. Kojo was just expressing an opinion which he is perfectly entitled to. This kind of personal insults, in response, is unnecessary. You're a better poster than this, Weckerz..

I only said I think Lukaku's technical ability is worse than Benteke's, and as a response he starts whining about Belgian posters. Hardy an opinion relevant to my post, seems to me he's just butthurt I talked against him.

The mug was probably uncalled for, but I couldn't resist.

Soldado's a real fox in the box not to mention he'll be receiving service from a really good midfield

[NishC300 1,865]

A United fan sent me a tweet saying Rooney is better than Suarez. :lol2:

Crystal Palace brought cheerleaders.

EDIT: Crystal Palace fans have made an incredible Mosiac! Brilliant fans.

[NishC300 1,865]

Cuntinburg in charge of this game.

[Liquidator 5,176]

Palace fans are bollocks. Don't think because they made a mosaic they are any good. Selhurst park defines shit, I only like it because of the cheerleaders

agreed.

Well, I do not if any of you are watching the Spurs, but I may say they are not much in the first half.

At half no score.

[NishC300 1,865]

Closing this Spurs game. Going to watch yesterday's episode of Comedy Nights with Kapil

Spurs aint finishing top4 without a classy CAM...

[Bir_CFC 3,455]

Yeah, Spurs lacking creativity in the middle of the park. They bought so many mids, not sure why AVB didn't buy an attacker other than Soldado.

[Bir_CFC 3,455]

Spurs get a pen. Unlucky for Palace defender.

[bushman 2,043]

Certainly, it was a handball & cuntenberg awarded it.

[mediator 2,026]

Paulinho, what a diver...

[Bir_CFC 3,455]

Palace is playing like idiots. I've counted at least 6 times they could have cross the ball into the box and they chose to go back to try and carve out a clear cut chance. You should know you're hardly going to get a clear cut chance so why would you not instead just pump the ball into the box and live off the scraps?

[Bir_CFC 3,455]

omg lloris just made the most amazing tackle outside his own box, wow, that was sick
