TAA got away with an identical one last season.
I don't remember too many complaints.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
When was that?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I was thinking of someone else but I was also thinking that TAA handball against City a couple of years ago that was far more obvious than James's and there was definate intent.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Can't really get much more obvious than stopping the ball on the goal line with your arm.

The guy is clearly talking about the intent element, clearly it was handball but initially it hit his leg. Ball could of gone anywhere but luck would have it it hit his arm. This is were opinions can be divided.
When a guy swipes his arm to ensure a ball doesn't go into the net then the fact it hit his leg first is irrelevant.
He kept the ball out when it was clearly going in off his leg. The end.
Its instinct but in the end themselves the breaks.

It's instinct or a deliberate swipe, if it's instinct there is nothing anyone can do about it. I see what you are trying to do and I'm not complaining about the result, but your justification is was wishy washy as the decision.
By the letter of the law it's a sending off. Everything else is opinion.
Should mendy have been sent off? Deliberately scuffing the penalty spot then nearly crippling hendo with a swiping kick?
Or have cfc fans completely ignored that...
Guess im gonna come down the middle of the 11v11 debate and say i thought it was a really competitive game until the red changed the face of it. We did have our chance to go 2-0 up but the feeling was any wasted chance was gonna come back to bite us
We are obviously going to be the happier with drawing away at Anfield after a red card. Going a man down has previously scuppered Tuchel's tactics so im happy to see he can prevent that

---------------------------------------------------------
My take as well. Thought it was very evenly matched 11v11, whether the red card was right or not it ruined a very closely fought contest. The fact Tuchel bolted the doors shut in the second half showed that one extra player was the decisive fine margin between the teams.
Hopefully the match at SB stays 11v11 cos that was fun to watch.

How did Fabinho not get a yellow card r even red after fouling constantly all match how did Salad not get a yellow for kicking the ball away in descent-this has always been a yellow card offence but not for pool apparantly. The handball was a penaly yes but not deliberate so not a red card https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/36047575.
now we are punished with a three match supension on top of te pen and 12 v 10 for almost an hour.

It was Rudiger who got booked for scuffing the pen spit and I'll ignore your laughable claims about Mendy on Henderson

As I saw it, Fabinho should have received 6 yellow cards.
Anthony Taylor always gives 1 player total exemption for the full 90 minutes.
Taranga against City, Fabinho against Chelsea.
