Digne had his arms up before he stepped on him. Could easily have been intentional.
Yeah, in real time I thought he hasn't meant to stamp on his ankle - he was just trying to clip him again as he had a split second earlier.

But on the replay, you clearly see that his arms go up just before the stamp and he's nowhere near the ball, or even attempting to go for the ball. He's playing the player, trying to give away a yellow card foul - but he takes it too far because he resorts to the stamp.

The first attempted trip was a yellow, and the reckless stamp was a blatant red. It's indefensible, despite Ancelotti's protests, and despite Lineker and Redknapp talking utter nonsense. The ref was 100% right, and VAR would have checked and agreed.

Do they still extend bans if there's a frivolous appeal?

For no particular reason I rarely watch motd, but here's an advanced warning for those that do in case there's a a faux outrage at Mo getting a penno. Many years ago, I'll say 10, Alan Shearer declared if you're touched in the box, go down, its a pen. Michael Owen said something similar also. That's the strikers union for you, whether its right or wrong.

Roll the tape - its all there to find.

So if any c*nt wades in on Mo tonight or tomorrow, or whenever they can fuck off. These times are hard enough without us stressing over pricks, who unfortunately we use to revere as footballers and may hold a tad of respect for (not you though Danny M, you're one bad fucking ted now).

Shearer was adamant that Calvert-Lewin/Lovren one was a clear penalty, clever play, poor defending etc.

They also won’t factor in the very many times Mo gets fouled, doesn’t scream and doesn’t get a penalty for his troubles.

They also said Albrighton kicking Mane in the back of the shin was "a dive" because there was a slight delayed reaction before he went down. Shows how clueless they are.

I think Rooney said something similar, might have been in a different context though.

Dickhead

Shearer needs to pick a view and stick to it. One night he says if you get contact in the box you go down, next he says going down under little contact is a dive. It actually annoys me that we've heard in the space of a few hours Souness, Moyes, Shearer and Murphy call Salah a diver yet I have never, ever heard them say that about far worse offenders

To be fair to Danny (Oxygen thief) Murphy, he did say that 'if players don't go down they won't get a penalty'. He then states that 'but we don't want to see that' - so what point are you making dickhead?

Chelsea v Burnley : Keeper takes out the forward after the shot was taken.  I remember at the end of last season when a United player was taken out after the shot was taken and they all said it was definitely penalty.

Bet that doesn’t get mentioned this time.

Whatever happened to the days when you could watch Match Of The Day and get some insight into how a team set up or see things that you can't get from watching a game on TV and not in person like off the balls moves or team shapes. Now all you get is cliche shite and "you would have scored that' nonsense from tubes like Shearer and Murphy. Think I've just answered my own question

Unfortunately for him, the video was in Betamax format, the FA only had Video 2000 machines so were unable to view the video. Everyone else in the world was using the VHS format.

Remember when Shearer said that Calvert-Lewin when Degsy put his hand on him in the box in the derby a few years ago that attackers are entitled to go down when they feel contact?

Seems like that only applies to plucky English lads, mucky foreigners are divers!

Managers like him are cowards. Far easier to stand their and accuse an opposition player of diving than show some actual ambition for once and try and win the game fair and square. I said it in the post game thread but I love it when you see them chucking on attacking players in the last few minutes, trying in vain to claw back the game. Maybe if he’d brought them on 20 minutes sooner they could have impacted the game like ours did.

Why change the habit of a career though.
