    this one was different. he was extremely late . it was not just momentum

    Your saying it was different because it was extremely late, which implies that if it was just a split second late, you wouldn't see it as a penalty?

    I bet they don't. If that happened every match we would have a lot of penalties.


    Keepers who come out for corners miss the ball but clean out strikers happen a lot of the time and never penalties.

    10 I think, the deadline for the suspension for 10 yellows has passed

    I'm saying he had time not to follow through but chose to.......so he intentionally hit him with both fists!
    I also think that in the majority of cases a penalty should be given .
    if a player commits to a tackle out the pitch and is beat to the ball its a foul.
    If a keeper is beat to the ball and punches someone in the head I also think its a penalty. every time . why would it not be

    The difference is at corners it is the player getting in the keeper's way and causing an obstruction which is why you so often seeing the gk getting a foul whereas in this case it was the keeper getting in the attackers way and causing the obstruction. Sure this done now none of it realy matters! If nothing else it gives Jose some material we'll surely hear about his view of it later!

    I agree but if you are giving penalties for that you have to give for all, i don't think i've ever seen a penalty given when a keep comes out for a corner or free kick, misses the ball for cleans out opposition players - which happens in nearly every match.

    Now Do you think Cahill handball was a penalty? accidental handball in middle of field would be given, why not for a penalty?

    Totally agree in handballs often it's a free kick any time it touches the hand but in the box the ball almost needs to be caught!

    Chelsea defenders have a habit of spreading themselves in their box goalie style and "accidentally" handling the ball! I think Cahill did it twice in a game already this season and Terrybis prone to it as well :D

    I'm going to regret my last minute switch of sub's if schlupp misses out
    played Bertrand and switched alder up to 2nd sub ahead of bellerin!
    he is playing really well. close to an assist twice .
    at this stage I'll prob end up keeping him for the dgw rather than wasting a few transfers trying to get kos in

    drogba coming on for oscar

    this week has been as boring as feared! double Chelsea or pool defence may be key!
    schlupp not playing and now 2 of my 3 Chelsea lads booked is annoying

    Doubled up on Chelsea defence last week. Didn't go with Azpil (who I usually go with as he is the cheapest).

    He spawned 2 bps last week and looks like 3 this match while my two get none! Kick in the teeth
