5string Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 Small margins, huh? Pelle heads just over; Leicester header hits post and goes in.
Jonnyboy Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 pelle needs to up his work rate and stop them more from playing out of the back. he just stands there Why did you choose him in our best possible team when all are fit?
James Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 Ridiculous that Sky didn't even acknowledge the Simpson block as handball. It was blatant and should have been a red and a penalty.
Batman Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 Why did you choose him in our best possible team when all are fit? because he has been very good lately, far less movement today though.
DuncanRG Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 Small margins, huh? Pelle heads just over; Leicester header hits post and goes in. Yep - this has been a really good performance. Try and stem their momentum again and we've got every chance.
Saints foreva Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 Ridiculous that Sky didn't even acknowledge the Simpson block as handball. It was blatant and should have been a red and a penalty. Funnily enough only seen Saints fans claiming this.
Jonnyboy Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 because he has been very good lately, far less movement today though. Pfft. Long and Mane all day long.
DuncanRG Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 Ridiculous that Sky didn't even acknowledge the Simpson block as handball. It was blatant and should have been a red and a penalty. You'd be spitting blood if that was given against us. Not a handball at all - it would have hit his ribs.
James Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 Funnily enough only seen Saints fans claiming this. So you don't think it was handball? Ok then.
Jonnyboy Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 Ridiculous that Sky didn't even acknowledge the Simpson block as handball. It was blatant and should have been a red and a penalty. Would have been 20 years ago.
Patrick Bateman Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 Ridiculous that Sky didn't even acknowledge the Simpson block as handball. It was blatant and should have been a red and a penalty. Because it wasn't a handball?
Saints foreva Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 So you don't think it was handball? Ok then. It hit his arm but his arm was against his side.
Gingeletiss Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 Funnily enough only seen Saints fans claiming this. Well, I'm watching on Foxtel here in Oz, and he lifted his arm to the ball. Blatant, no argument.
DuncanRG Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 Would have been 20 years ago. 20 years ago it probably would have gone over Danny Simpson's head.
Plastic Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 So you don't think it was handball? Ok then. I don't think it was a handball
James Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 That's right- unsettle Vardy Again, ridiculous commentary. Two feet from Vardy and it's a "good strong challenge". Was a foul at the very least.
Batman Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 HT played alright. should have scored ourselves. It was not a penalty. a man united level player has to score that when away 1-on-1 with their keep Mane very good though VvD won everything Targett and pelle very weak IMO
Sheaf Saint Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 So you don't think it was handball? Ok then. No. It was completely unintentional and would have hit his ribs if his arm wasn't where it was. What do you expect him to do? Cut off his arm in a split second so it doesn't hit the ball?
Sour Mash Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 Definite pen, and would have been a red card as well. We're playing ok, could still nick a point I reckon.
5string Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 It hit his arm but his arm was against his side. This. Not deliberate, arm not in an 'unnatural position', ball hit straight at him with no chance of getting out of the way. Not handball. Not a goal either, which it should have been if Mane had passed the ball on the ground around the defender (easy for me to say that sitting here on my sofa, of course!).
BotleySaint Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 We've played superbly and matched them. Ridiculously biased commentary on Sky. Hand ball prevented our goal. Morgan pushed clasie for their goal. Vardy could should have had at least a yellow. But its Leicester right? Sent from my GT-I9506 using Tapatalk
Sour Mash Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 Again, ridiculous commentary. Two feet from Vardy and it's a "good strong challenge". Was a foul at the very least. Niall Quinn is a horrifically bad commentator.
Jonnyboy Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 Game is set up perfectly for Leicester now. Exactly. The 1-0 experts will probably grind it out. Vardy looks hopped up on some sort of steroids to me.
Pamplemousse Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 The crossing to Pelle has been so poor, apart from one decent cross from which he nearly scored.
NewYorkSaint Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 Exciting half. You can see why Leicester have done so well this season. But honestly, I think we're a better team overall. Wanyama has been superb. Clasie too, apart from the goal. I'm going for 1-1.
doc oli Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 If victor makes that tackle it's a straight red and 10 game ban. Pikey
Saint Without a Halo Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 Who the **** was marking him there Clasie on Morgan a bit of a mismatch that
Sour Mash Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 You'd be spitting blood if that was given against us. Not a handball at all - it would have hit his ribs. So what if it'd hit his ribs. If it would have been hitting his face, would that still not be a penalty.
UpweySaint Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 The commentary/build up has barely even mentioned us, like we are there to make up the numbers. Much as I want Leicester to win the league would love to see us come back into this and rain on everyone's parade! Encouraging signs when we came back into it and I think we can consider ourselves unlucky to be behind. We have options on the bench and hopefully we will come up fired up - like to see Mane play with a point to prove after not taking that chance, a lot of our better stuff seems to come through finding him on the run or clasie picking out cedric in space.
Mallagroth Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 We've started moving around off the ball a bit better, creating opportunities think we are still in this. Keep it to only -1 and if in the last 20 we still arent in a draw we can bring on JWP for Clasie and Austin on for Davis to go for the direct route which is Leicesters biggest weakness. IF we can claw it to 1-1 by any means I think they will then throw the kitchen sink at us allowing Mane in. Easy right?...
Mr X Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 literally nonexistent defending from fonte for their goal!
Batman Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 Clasie on Morgan a bit of a mismatch that that is an unfortunate result of 3 at the back. VvD get pulled a lot wider during play. Had VvD been there instead of clasie, no goal...harsh really
beatlesaint Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 Ridiculously biased commentary on Sky. Two words - Niall Quinn
obelisk Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 As I thought. A foul on Clasie. Otherwise the ball never reaches Morgan.
Saint Without a Halo Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 So you don't think it was handball? Ok then. The concensus of the BEin studio of Gray Coleman etc reckon it was 50/50 they reckon 5 out of ten refs would give it and the need to give a red card makes the decision harder
bpsaint Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 Soares poor for the goal as highlighted on sky, ball to hand for our one on one clearly.
trousers Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 Looking at the replay of their goal its a blatant foul by Morgan on Clasie. Should be 0-0.
Matthew Le God Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 literally nonexistent defending from fonte for their goal! Strange use of the word "literally".
Baird of the land Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 Frustrating half. We've played well and then switched off for a moment and left a complete mismatch of an aerial challenge. Fair play to Clasie for trying to cover but we simply shouldn't have been in a position where he would be competing with one of their best headers. Lovely play by Mane that frustatingly Simpson got back for, don't think it was a penalty. Leicester are rather dirty imo. Vardy got's the new poster boy blind spot for ref's. Hopefully we can raise it again and get something from this game.
Pamplemousse Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 We've had chances and we'll have chances in the second half. We just have to take them. I still think we will lose unfortunately but at least we're still in unlike against Liverpool.
Jonnyboy Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 I'm having 2nd thoughts on the penalty, the arm tenses and deflects it away. If it hits the body there's more chance of it ricocheting on into the net. That said Mane should have kept it low in the ground into the bottom right corner.
saintadjg Posted 3 April, 2016 Posted 3 April, 2016 looked a nailed on penalty to me and sending off.again we don't get pen and opposition goes straight down and score.and vardy should have been booked as others said Vic would've likely got red for that tackle. I hope we turn this round.
