umm and another player gets kicked in the head tonight & this time it's not even a foul !. The lack of consistency is where the problem lies.
The goalkeeper has his area which players expect him to keep to [more or less, free kicks excepted] so why would an outfield player running at great speed expect a goalie to be that far out, he wouldn't. He took a risk.or how about at worse he'd expect mane to head it seeing it was head height rather than expecting mane to come kung fu kicking out?
I guess it was xabi alonsos fault for not jumping out the way when he saw lampard flying in. He should have expected it when lampard was careering into him
Where the **** do you watch football, keepers do and have always come out of their area to win/clear balls. This was not a once in a lifetime eventThe goalkeeper has his area which players expect him to keep too [more or less, free kicks excepted] so why would an outfield player running at great speed expect a goalie to be that far out, he wouldn't. He took a risk.

He had the advantage over Mane in that he knew Mane was there. He made a reckless decision imo to go that far out to challenge knowing it would have to be with his head. Did he deserve what he got, no, but he takes half the blame for making a reckless decision and putting himself and Mane at risk.

btw I'm not saying it wasn't a red card.
Yep, and Mane had no idea that big green thing in front of him was a keeperSo any player who challenges for a header is reckless and must accept they might get kicked in the head? Feet can go above shoulder height, but if the head goes below shoulder height it's fair game for a jumping kick?!

That'd be me.It's just laughable, there's even got one clown going round saying i claimed it was intentional![]()
Believe me, you are not alone. You have been quotedThat'd be me.

Quoted as saying what?Believe me, you are not alone. You have been quoted![]()
I asked where I said it was intentional and another poster said "saint showed you"Quoted as saying what?
Yes, I did. And you chose to ignore it. But we're all judged on what we prove ourselves to be, not what we claim to be, and no amount of back-tracking or logic twisting will change what I and a few others read.I asked where I said it was intentional and another poster said "saint showed you"![]()
Please prove it again, I must have missed itYes, I did. And you chose to ignore it. But we're all judged on what we prove ourselves to be, not what we claim to be, and no amount of back-tracking or logic twisting will change what I and a few others read.
No thanks. I can't be arsed. Anyone who was on at the time will remember.Please prove it again, I must have missed it![]()

I totally agree, and always have, that it was unintentional.No thanks. I can't be arsed. Anyone who was on at the time will remember.
I don't want to do this any longer, tbh. As far as I'm concerned you were completely out of order and I have no intention of trying to prove something to you when you wouldn't concede it anyway.
It was a deserved red card for dangerous play, but it wasn't intentional. Can't we all just leave it at that and give it a ****ing rest?
Football rules don't say you have to keep yourself safe, but life rules do. Running out at one of, if not the fastest attacking player in the league means you have to be aware that anything could happen - clash of heads at that speed alone could result in serious injury. Add to that he knew he couldn't use his hands to protect himself, so as others have said, he will think again before rushing so far out again.
From that pic Mane has eyes on the ball the keeper has his eyes on Manes foot, this may be an intentional decision by the keeper to try and injure Mane. Ederson should get a ban, you can't go around heading players feet like that.Yep, and Mane had no idea that big green thing in front of him was a keeper

Well you'd be wrong, and you're not in a position to speak for me and my motives. Diego comes on here to stir the **** because it amuses him. He's not here for debate, so the rules of debate go out of the window. Most of the time it's tedious, but just banter, but there was a darker element to his attempt to make out the Mané situation was worse than it was, and I didn't like it. Besides, it wasn't simply one quotable post, it was the whole string of conversation and I don't feel it necessary to go back over them to satisfy someone else's idea of how I should make my point. I have neither the time or the inclination.As far as I can see there is only one reason why a person wouldn't quote it....and that's because said quote doesn't exist.
actually the DMD debating method is Diego down to a tee including the fact that he has probably posted more on this one LFC thread than he has on the ManU board in the whole of the last year.The DMD method of debate.
1) Dont do something but say you did
2) When called up on it, say you already did it, even though you didn't and that you will NOT do it again, because everyone knows that every time you cut and paste a quote, it takes a month off your overall life expectancy
Saint if you did it, just quote the ****ing thing again and end the debate, it's that simple.
