so it wasn't unpunished then

The assertion was that he should've been sent off.

A yellow card wouldn't have sent him off.

You used it as an example of a tackle that went unpunished, you were wrong as usual

Nothing new for them and their army of media apologists

And this...

I only saw motd on Sunday morning and was expecting something quite different from the way I’d seen it written about.

My view, it’s a yellow and sometimes a red. He was as reckless and out of control as much as the spurs lad, and got a bit on the ball first and didn’t seem to get him with his studs, but more the side of his foot.

Can’t be surprised they get the rub of the green, but I’d be annoyed if one of ours was sent off for that.

Norwich's Mclean on Guendouzi in the Arsenal game a couple of weeks ago, over the top of the ball and crucially didn't get the ball. Got only a yellow card.

Yellow was a let off but to not give a foul can only be blatant bias.

Ah yes, not subscribing to the notion of a mass media, referee and FA conspiracy means I must obviously be a red. You know, rather than just not a complete swivel-eyed lunatic.

The funny thing is the more games they win, the less bothered most fans including myself are with their success. As I've said in here multiple times, there have been numerous teams in the premier league who have been better than them, yet haven't won the amount of games they have which suggests that something else in going on. In some ways the more successful they are the more people will start asking questions and how exactly they're able to perform to such a high standard. I don't understand how players like Robertson, TAA, Milner, Henderson, Keita, Mane, Firmino and Salah have become world beaters almost overnight. For example Rooney was viewed as being world class for ages, before making the first team, same with players like Gerrard, Torres, Beckham, Scholes and Ferdinand.

Is Alisson better than Cech or Schmeichel? No. Is Robertson better than Ashley Cole or Evra? I'd say probably the same. Are any of their current midfielders better than players like Makelele, Essien, Viera, Scholes, Keane, Ronaldo, Lampard, Gerrard, Alonso, Fabregas, Pires, Llunberg,Petit,Giggs, Beckham, or Overmars? Certainly not. Is Mane better than Henry, Rooney, Suarez, Aguero, Drogba, or even Shearer? No. Is Fimino better than a lot of those players? No he's not. With regards to Salah, his performances have dropped once defenders got used to him. So it's either all the other teams in the league are rubbish or something else is going on. My view is like others on here is that with United being a mess, Chelsea's transfer ban, all the problems with the board at Arsenal, that Sky and the premier league needed Liverpool to do well, to keep the large TV audience. When so much money comes from the TV and clubs like Liverpool, Man United, Chelsea and Arsenal have such large armchair supports, there is a financial benefit to ensuring these clubs succeed. It's really no surprise that we always lose the RS, when in some ways Everton benefit financially from being in Liverpool's shadow. It's not surprise that when clubs like Everton, Spurs and Man City challenge the top 4, you get lot's of dodgy decisions against you. That's why City go far harder groups than Arsenal despite the fact they had won the league and Arsenal had finished 4th, why we got Villareal in qualifying and Liverpool got a amateur Welsh side. Football is completely corrupt and designed to ensure clubs with large numbers of worldwide supporters do well, while smaller clubs just become extras in their movie.

So no team then as the table never lies.
