    Was it deliberate handball?

    How did Clutts know that from where he was stood?

    Typical Clattenburg and I don't mean in a good way.

    If only we had kept Alderweireld, we may have genuinely been top four candidates with Forster too.

    I meant more other teams backing off them and letting them have possession and not leaving space for Vardy to run into

    Clattenburg got it wrong for me. The worst thing about Clattenburg is how he over accentuates every movement when he makes a decision.

    Shame really as I can see Fonte start to be fazed out next season.

    I agree.

    Come on Tom, what about the deliberate handball question?

    I think it was a very harsh decision. Sterling turns his back and makes no attempt to extend his arm.
    On the present evidence I can't say that Man City look as though they'll recover from it. Their tempo seems to be governed by the speed that Yaya Toure trots about the midfield. There are several star players not pulling their weight, and not just in this match.

    Fair enough although that's how teams should have been playing against them all season

    Well it would have been a happy worry trying to fit him into our side with van Dijk and Fonte :). Plus, as the BBC stated yesterday, Fonte's ball distribution yesterday was exceptional.

    Youngster gets the equaliser. He's a natural.

    Was talking to a big City fan recently who was very frustrated that Pellegrini doesn't start him more often. They really rate him up there.

    He looks quite special on the few occasions I've seen him.

    Indeed. Before people suggest my natural comment is based upon his goal, I have seen him finish several times. He knows what he's doing.

    I see Man City have finally got out of second gear.

    Kane's funny isn't he. Looks really ponderous sometimes.

    Going to be a class player if he carries on.


    On other football news looks like Oxo has fell out of love with footy.

    I think he knows his own strengths and tries to stick to them.
