It wasn't. They weren't affecting the decisions made by the keeper before the shot.

They all made a run at the ball. I'm sure that's going to be the decision moaned about after the game if we lose so I give up. No one is making any complaints about it anywhere but here.
 
All that hard work undone by one stupid mistake. Get him off, he's really slowing the game down. Conversely, Huddlestone has looked very good and Diame looks far more effective deeper as it allows the forward players to work together, instead of being isolated.

What's that? Hmm? I already said all this before? You sure? Fair enough.

Savage pointed out that it was the wrong decision. Doubt they'll spend the whole break talking about it like they did with the Bruce handball though. Plenty on twitter are pointing it out too.

No one on my commentary stream or journos on Twitter are.

Odubajo should be on the right with elmo not starting, was dreadful in the first tie. I suspect if he's dreadful again that will be our first sub. Great to see Diame start. If Bruce truly didn't care he'd have rested him.

Or Diame's place in the league team is more under threat? Though Powell starting alongside him here.
 
Meyler is the exact opposite we need at the moment. The commentator has watched him for a half and has basically got him down. Too conservative. Backwards, sidewards, never looks up. Just because he runs around and gets stuck in doesnt mean he is decent. Id do that for city.City 0 Meyler 1

I ****ing hate those 'technically' offside goals. It ruins the game. Why should a goal not stand based on daft technicalities like whether someone is in the keeper's field of vision or whatever. Even more annoying when it's us in such a big game where we won't get loads of chances.

Anyone else think Giroud could have been sent off for that scrape down Davies' achilles? Kevin Nolan got sent off and roundly condemned for the exact same thing a couple of years ago. Difference is his team were getting hammered so it looked more of a frustrated swipe but that shouldn't matter should it? Either way it's a malicious, nasty foul.

I've seen a red given for a tackle like that in the past, it looked pretty bad.
