No, nice try, come back again with something relevant. Koscielny was hip-checking and pushing him the whole way. Where did he attempt to play the ball? If you can watch that replay and still come away saying “There was absolutely no push” you should make an appointment with your eye doc ASAP.

“Shoulder to shoulder” doesn’t mean there’s no foul. Koscielny pushed and didn’t play the ball at all.

Sorta. They downgraded it so that fouls deemed accidental don’t get the “triple punishment” (red card, penalty, suspension). Accidental fouls that deny a goalscoring opportunity are still a yellow and a penalty. However, fouls involving pushing, pulling, holding, not playing ball, etc (pretty much anything other than…

Monreal played him on

Notice the *if*. Never agreed that it was a missed call at all. You’re grasping at straws now. No one outside of Arsenal fans looking for excuses are claiming that Vidal deserved red. Give it up. Wenger needs to go. 10-2 aggregate and 7 straight R16 exits shouldn’t be excusable for anyone at any club. By all means…

Ribery, Coman..........?

Haha okay buddy.

Found the Arsenal fan

It’s a red. Denying a clear goal-scoring opportunity in a deliberate manner (pushing, pulling, holding, not playing the ball) etc is still an automatic red card.

You’re not a lawyer stfu

God help us.

Well, perhaps, but like I said, it’s been a good two years since he’s consistently performed well (and that’s being honest; it’s probably closer to three or four)....Klinsmann, for all his faults, is still a pretty decent talent scout IMO and I have a hard time believing that he (and the rest of USSF) would be unable…

He has started to catch his fair share of flack from fans, yes, but IMO whenever a match is on the commentators, pre/postgame analysts, halftime show guys, ESPNFC guys, internet pundits, washed up pros who like to tweet about games, etc all seem to talk still like he’s the best player we’ve got and that he should…

What’s bewildering is that Brooks has arguably been our best CB recently, too.....But he lost the plot tonight

I think that’s true to a degree, but for whatever reason it always seems like the former USMNT commentator guys talk like he’s still our best player “most consistent performer” “midfield general” “dictates the flow of the game”....meanwhile, I’m over here like “consistently bad” “dictates the ball right into the…

I can’t understand for the life of me how it seems like Michael Bradley consistently gets a pass for putting in awful performances. He hasn’t had a good game in two years and somehow seems damn near immune to criticism.

You keep on digging, boss.

How to talk to your 7-y.o. about Trump:

You’re a god damn idiot if you think Johnson lost you this election. If anything, Johnson’s votes hurt Trump. Read a book; present a better nominee next time.

Imagine that. You mean there were people out there who cared more about their jobs and unions than having Jay-Z, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, etc give endorsements for Hillary? You mean to tell me that these people *really* cared more about that than seeing Mark Ruffalo and Robert Downey, Jr. tell them how terrible Trump…
