Argh my ****ing eyes....

Vardy hits the post.

God I hate Man City. Just everything about them.

Vardy hits the post.

I’m surprised he didn’t take it round their keeper, to be honest. When the keeper is that far off the line, it’s made for that.

The Vardy chance, and Barnes/Evans v Chelsea is the difference between a good team and one that wins 8 in a row

 

[Jeff]

That should be a red card and a penalty.

It sure looked like it, assuming since the ref has given a corner it won’t be checked by VAR?

 

[Miles Away]

What a ****ing joke and absolutely ridiculous decision. I’m infuriated

 

[FOX Franks]

Hello and welcome to the premier league. We’ve implemented VAR poorly, the rules just get made up as we go along, and there are still major mistakes being made.
the fans hate it, though, so we’re keeping it.

 

[Miles Away]

Angriest I’ve been in ages

The De Bruyne handball was an obvious penalty as well

 

[glyn]

Much better than at the Etihad, from what it looks like watching on my phone in a pub on Six Nations day.

Didn’t even go to VAR for the Nacho incident?

I've said from day 1....they're making such an arse of it that no one will complain when they scrap it. Allows the whole human error shit to excuse dodgy shit.

Should have had two penalties and their keeper should be in the bath. We've played well though I think. We've looked confident and strong on the ball and we've created a few chances. Iheanacho needs to sort out his first touch and passing but he's done okay. Maddison and Tielemans have been good and Soyuncu has been excellent.

 

[Miles Away]

****ing hell I’m absolutely fuming at that.

violent conduct, a sending off, a penalty and they have Bravo on the pitch the rest of the Game.

and the wall handball as well.

the way they’ve implemented video review is a ****ing joke.

 

[Lako42]

Premier League, FA, Referees, Sky... All useless ****s

 

[Micky]

Ignoring the obvious frustrations, we are playing really well. The usuals doing a very good job and Praet showing what a class footballer he is.

 

[FOX Franks]

Feels to me like the thing we’re doing better than playing them previously is tackling and not leaving that player alone until they’re tackled properly. We’re hassling them really well all the time. Hopefully we’ll keep it up and make it count.

 

[pork pie fox]

Even if you could concede that the second one could possibly have gone either way (which I don’t), the KDB handball shouldn’t even be a debate.

 

[fitz]

We're doing really well....officials aren't allowing this one though.
