England's World Cup let down

[baitman]

...I am basically a Manc fan...

[Alex]

He was a bit reckless but no intent other than to get the ball. Loved his reaction though. No play-acting, no retaliation, just stood his ground. The lad's got character!

Yeah, I read tweets earlier from Dan Roan saying he apologised to Hodgson and has been working his nuts off in training. Thats the reaction we need.

He is going to turn into a brilliant player for us and England. Love that lad

[Bender]

Why? Because I think it was a silly tackle I am basically a Manc fan? Its just my opinion. I am a little annoyed that its being suggested that I cant question his decision on the pitch for that reason.

Ive looked again and its not as bad as first look, but his trailing leg smashed into him, so it was reckless.

As Bob said though, he is young and an attacker. So maybe some leniency was needed. I also said it was probably a yellow. Which is not like I was claiming it was a red card.

So in one sentence you say the extreme and in the other you say the opposite......why not focus on that cunt grabbing a young player learning the game ...no need to react like that from Valencia..he knew he wasn't injured.

[Kenneth]

I'm with bender. Alex is a Manc.

Ok then, to claify.

It was a silly tackle that looked reckless. He got more of the ball that I thought, but I dont think he should have been sent off.

I also dont care what Valencia did. Thats for Manchester United and Ecuador fans to concern themselves with.

I'm with bender. Alex is Scum .

Bit Harsh but i'll let it ride

Really wow...i bet your reaction would be the complete opposite if instead of England v Ecuador it was Liverpool v Man Utd.

[Alex]

Well probably yeah.

Stupid challenge. I dont get all this 'He got the ball stuff'

He was reckless and out of control. Coupled with going over the top of the ball, it was just stupid.

I guess it was a yellow, probably not a red. But it was a clear foul.

I agree with this *dons tin hat*

He'd have probably got yellow in the prem but he'll be finding out in the CL soon that foreign refs tolerate stuff like that far less.

Valencia is a CUNT
