Bony's built like a heavyweight boxer - and yet he just crumbled to the ground when he felt Skrtel. Obviously we all know certain refs have been dying to give one of those against Skrtel but that was a ridiculous decision IMO.

      Skrtel was poor on the day - not as poor as Agger but poor nevertheless - but the two goals I mentioned were bad decisions.
      The tackle itself was clean, but then Shelvey kicked out at Shelvey afterwards, possibly in self-defence as he may have thought Jonjo was about to step backwards on to him. But it was definitely a kick-out by Shelvey, and I suppose technically we could have seen him sent off for it. So in that respect, we may have been lucky.

        Disagree. Didn't look a kick out at all to me. Just a tangle of legs. Skrtel's legs were in the air - they had to come down.

          You appear to have somewhat of a Jonjo Shelvey fetish going on here Scratch. Read it all back to yourself

            Skrtel definitely kicked out at Shelvey which is what the free kick was for Id say. The ref is so ****, Skrtel is lucky he didnt get a red

              Imagine if he'd been sent off for that!

              It would've been even more pathetic and laughable than Beckham's red card at the 98 World Cup.

              Watched it tens of times and still don't see a "kick out". He's bringing his feet/legs back down from out of the air. They have to come down. Absolutely nothing in it in my view.

                That and the penalty decision were pathetic. Nothing in either of them. I think he gave those on reputation alone. He's been watching too much BT Sport.

                  Penalty decision was Skrtel's reputation for wrestling coming home to roost really. it was bound to happen at some point.

                  Agree with everyone who says that the yellow card looked like nothing. In real time I barely noticed it. When shown in slow-mo it looked a bit odd but so do most tangles.

                    Well put I certainly didn't see Shelvey screaming for a foul, I think he knew Skrtel had won the ball cleanly.

                      MOTD last night showed a montage of our defensive errors this season, amazing how many miss kicks, own goals and general ****e play our back four have produced so far this season




                      Keep this quiet
                      if you carefully grind off the edges of a 50p coin you can use it as a 10p

                        It was embarrassing, yet strangely amusing .

                        It's incredible to think we're in with a shot of winning the league given how many absolute defensive blunders we've made this season!

                          For the penalty he had his left arm over Bonys shoulder and around onto his chest. Anger had it covered, didn't need to touch him. I can see why it was given. That said you'd be giving yen penalties a game if we're going to be consistent about it.

                            yes, they as good as said if our defence was of the standard of the teams around us we'd piss the league, or was that my rose tinted ears ?

                              Basically said we'd be 4 points clear at the top of the table

                                I can't remember that exactly but given our goals scored column I think it's fair to say if we had a better defense we'd be champions this year.

                                We have a title winning attack (1st in goals scored) and a mid-table defence (9th in goals conceded).
