That peno was given as compensation for the Carroll goal which never should have been allowed.

Overall though, that was not a penalty in my opinion.


I read it differently. The keeper touches the ball which is not deflected but rather slowed down with it still moving forward. Flanno skips the keeper and get the ball, the keeper brings him down using his hand. Penalty for me. That said, if the keeper hadn't pulled his leg, don't think he would have scored because he doesn't have a proper left foot and the angle was tight. Sturridge against United (missed penalty) was a clear dive.

I hope that doesn't stick in Clattenburg's memory for this weekend, but he also didn't give us a pen for a foul on Sturridge later on in the game.

We had 12 pens this season. Quite a record and the season is not over yet.

All well deserved.

Last year our opponents had to kill our man before the ref gave us anything. Good to see more fairness this season.

And oh, we should have had a pen each at etihad and stamford bridge this season. We should at least have gotten a draw in both games.
