VD elbow on Richy hardly got a mention. Not the first time that rat has done it either. Never gets done for it though. And some still say the game is not corrupt.

They were the better team, they deserved to win. But that was a red card all day long. Football is dead.

And he got away with one v Gordon few weeks back. Someone needs to take the cnt out again

The parallels between him and Roberto Martinez are uncanny. Great first seasons but really they could and should have been even better. Then it falls off a cliff because of his bonkers and ridiculous stubbornness. Clings on longer than he should do purely because of cup runs but ultimately they fail miserably in the end there too.

Once the axe falls he will never manage at this level again. Back to an alehouse league where he can boast about winning about winning tinpot trophies.

Martinez finished up managing in the alehouse league called the World Cup Finals though.

As he gets older and slower he will be doing this more and more but he will be OK as it is allowed if you play for them.
It is pointless getting angry about decisions going in there favour as nothing will change until people in the game call out the corruption in the game which won't happen as they would be ostracised.
I didn't watch the game what's the point?

Let's be fair - they're just a very good football team at the moment

Life's too short to just fume at everything all the time

They are good. They deserved to win last night. They are walking the prem. And even when they are in form like this they still get all the added help, pens, no yellows for fouls, VD being allowed to elbow whoever he likes. Next week in the derby they will slam into our players straight from the off. The commentators will chuckle and say daft things like "He let him know he was there", then the first tackle from an Everton player will result in a yellow card. If we happened to be winning with 30 mins to go then we will have a player sent off, probably a pen to them as well. In fact, we should start a sweep for what minute of the game they will get their penalty as they get one every game. Life is short and I will not worry about anything that they win. However, obvious bias from officials does my nut in and needs calling out.
 
Don't think it was that much of an 'elbow'. Put his arm across and his elbow brushed against the bottom of Richarlison's throat.....who then went down clutching his face.

Yellow for VVD for being a bit careless. Yellow for Richy for simulation. At most.

You can see VD aim his elbow towards Richy's face. The connection does not matter, the intent was there.
