    Totally agree! The way he reached down after shows a man who cares, an absolute gent. The pundits, ex-players, sports professionals haven't got a clue. Not like his leg was falling off, it was just a scratch.

    If you watch it in slowmo, Azpilicueta deliberately sticks his leg under Celso's foot as it was coming down. Sneaky ****!

    Lo Celso seems like a really nice chap, probably because he's Argentinian and they tend to show good sportsmanship <ok>

    The whole "he's a nice bloke" argument was wheeled out by all and sundry after Harry Maguire failed to get sent off last week. Even Roy 'nicest chap you'll meet' Keane used it.

    Yes slight tap - was he injured? Did he carry on afterwards?

    Watch the incident in full speed and explain exactly where else his foot can go? Don't believe all the hype in the media was no worse than Robertson on Tanganga, Sterling on Alli or Cantwell on Winks,

    For what its worth I was surprised he wasn't sent off because in slow motion it look bad, but as none of those others mentioned were dismissed are we bothered - No so sling your hook!

    Nowhere! He'd have to be Wayne Sleep to put his foot anywhere but straight down on Azp leg.

    I thought it looked better in slowmo, you can see Azp deliberately slipping his leg in so Lo Celso's foot comes down on it.

    VAR is corrupt mate. There's a deliberate conspiracy! Probably got paid off to say that after making the right decision in the first place.

    And you believe everything that VAR says do you :emoticon-0140-rofl:

    I prefer to watch and make my own mind up but perhaps that's beyond your capability

    Was the first Robertson? You didn't seem to think that was a red, for some reason. Didn't create 10% of the fuss, either.
    The BBC is running an article with the headline "It could ruin football forever" in response to this, FFS. <doh>

    It was not a stamp at all, he trod on Azpilicheater`s leg, probably accidentally going by Lo Celso`s reaction, unfortunate yes, but it did not look like he was trying to leave one on him. If you want to see real intent, just look up some of the things Suarez used to get up to in a Pool shirt, and not once was he ever red carded while playing for Saltypool.

    Nudges him, looks straight at him and kicks him in the stomach.
