Do people honestly not think that's a penalty? I will admit that Ashley Young made it a tad theatrical, but there was a trip. I dont think you can say that Villa have bent over, terrible line-up out there today.

Hopefully Madrid will still beat them for La Liga, next weeks derbies a massive game but Barca aren't dropping points. Madrid were 10 points clear at one point!


Why would anybody want a vile club like Madrid to win, even if Barca aren't much better?

Minimal contact, if any at all. His leg was out and the Villa player knew what was coming which is why he tried to pull out but the theatrical dive was awful and OTT, lads getting a reputation!

There wasn't a trip, Young trod on the Villa players foot and then kicked him with his 2nd foot before diving ten feet in the air

The ref doesn't have much option but to give it, but young has basically moved his leg into the villa players leg and created the contact and then leapt over like a grenade went off just feet behind him.

Put it like this, it's a penalty that young engineered.

Villa have gone there with a very negative set up which is just preparing to be beaten by united. You have to be positive and attack them like wigan did.

To add to the negative set up the players aren't supporting each other and are just going trhough the motions, occasionally putting in a ibt extra with tackles and blocks.

They may not have lubed up but they've definitly bent over.

Evertone will be a carbon copy.

He did. They are allowed to look at the actual incident. Young should have been carded. If anything, rather than a penalty to United, it should have been a free kick to Villa. Young stands on the Villa players foot deliberately and then throws himself up in the air.

That is what really, really annoys me in football. Going down is one thing, but throwing yourself in the air like that is just stupid and should bring a booking regardless of whether it's a foul or not.

Young is the biggest cheat in the Premier League. If Mr Suarez or Mr Gerrard did it, there would be uproar about it.

Hand ball?

edit

I refer to the hand ball not given just now, not the one not given in the week.

What do you expect from a side managed by McLeish? He is Avram Grant MKII without the world class season managing Chelsea. Clubs will continue to give him work when he is nothing but a Scottish mug who sets his sides out for clean sheets. You only have to look at him signing Zigic over Chucho Benitez as evidence for his management style. Rotten.

Once again football fans show what classless pricks they are during a minutes silence.
