    Interestingly Mings could be in trouble as the ref didn't see it so the FA can take retroactive video evidence action.

    He saw Ibra's elbow, or the incident at least, which will go in his report so there shouldn't be further action.

    Ibra will do well not to get sent off in the second-half, Bournemouth will be gunning for him.
    I'm hoping this is the case as well. If the ref notes in his match report the Ibra incident, he can't be banned for it. What I really want to know is what was the ref talking to Ibra/Rooney about. Though if I have to guess I think the ref has totally missed the stomp, so simply assumed that Ibra's was 100% unintentional and was just jumping, hence a chat about watching your arms while jumping or something silly like that.

    Mings however is stuffed, he will get a retroactive ban. How long will depend on how intentional the FA deem it.
     
    What's with the over exaggeration here? Yes Ibra's elbow is a yellow, second yellow and red if ref sees it, but what the feck is the retrospective 3-match ban for?! Refs miss second yellows all the time. Should have walked, but ref missed it. No reason whatsoever for a retrospective ban imo, otherwise, they'd have to give a retrospective ban for every elbow thrown every game, which is not gonna happen.

    That stamp on the head though...
     
    Ibra probably needs a little rest anyway so won't be the end of the world if he does get a ban

    Thats the silver lining. He probably would do well to sit out a week or two and rejuvenate in time for the run in.

    Not to mention he would still be eligible for Europa league anyways.
     
    Never a penalty. There is a great angle from behind the goal line showing there is at least 20cm. distance between their legs.
    I'm sure the ref has a digital tape measure installed in his vision to call these decisions correctly. :lol: Lets face it, it looked a pen and that's what the ref sees. He doesn't have the added benefit of slow-mo playbacks at different angles.
     
    Does Zlatan stamp on the Bournemouth player just before he gets up and stamps on Zlatans head? Anyone else spot that?
     
    I haven't seen Alonso's challenge, however Ibra knew what he was doing with that follow through of an elbow. If the ref puts it in his match report that he saw Ibra clash with his elbow, then I don't believe a retrospective ban is in play. But this is Ibra and The FA, it should be a 3 match ban.
    Hopefully the ref saw it then!!
     
    Fair play to both Carragher and Henry for telling it like it is. I think Carragher wants to elbow Mings himself
    Watching another channel, but I think a lot of footballers absolutely despise what Mings did. Occasionally you end up on the ground for some reason or another, and you always expect people to step around you - Mings stamped on a defenceless player. I'm not saying Zlatan is a saint by any means (already said they both deserve bans in another post), but every sport has these massive "don'ts" and I'm pretty sure deliberately stamping on a player who's on the ground is one of football's.
     
    Should have been 3 or 4 goals up by now. Wasted chances again. We need to be ruthless in front of goal.

    I agree, I know Ibra has been good for us but sometimes he takes time to get going in certain matches. He should have buried those 2 chances easily for a player of his caliber.
     
    The common sense would be to ban them both.

    As I said before. If Mings had gone off as he should have. Ibra would not have elbowed him.

    Retrospective banning is basically saying that the referee couldnt do his job at the time and we need to rectify his mistakes. Its so flawed.
     
    Watch this all get spun into Zlatan getting away with a red card and lucky Man Utd FA are corrupt style headlines.

    The guardian have already changed their lead photo of the minute by minute coverage to a photo of Zlatan elbowing that cnut.
     
    If I was Ibra, and woukdn't have waited for the chance to get my own back on the cnut....I reckon I'd have just got up and just absolutely nutted him....And then when he was on the floor just keep kicking the shit out of him until someone dragged me away....After what the cnut did, that'd be worth a four match ban.

    So, you'd punish someone's cowardly action, by an even more cowardly one of kicking them on the floor?
    :lol:
     
    Yeah, looking at this again it looks more reckless and clumsy rather than malicious. He should have apologized immediately though.

    Na thats bollocks, he had a look to see where to put his foot then looked away to make it look innocent.
     
    I'm sure you would think the exact same if we got that penalty.

    Actually i would. Don't judge what i would or not would think thought police. These types of penalties look bad when the defender takes the standing leg of the forward after sudden change of direction. The fall is rapid hence the "easy" call. In this case there was literally no contact from Jones, so yeah...
     
    Just seen the stamp. Jesus Christ, that is awful. One of the most dangerous things I've ever seen on a football field. He should be banned for the rest of the season.
     
    As much as I want him taken off, I hope Ibra stays on and scores the winner. The reaction on RAWK and blue moon will be glorious.

    Look at the BBC website
     
    Typical utd. Not killing the game when there is chances to do it, and let others to come back and end up draw

    Yep, you can see it now.
    All those irritating twats of other teams completely ignoring the Mings stamp, like they always ignore all the decisions that go against us.
     
    Mings a 'disgrace'
    Jamie Carragher has just branded Mings a disgrace for his stamp on Zlatan. Both Henry and Carragher understanding of Zlatan’s subsequent elbow as a result.

    That probably won’t help him escape a retrospective charge if the referee didn’t see it, mind.

    People saying stamp wasnt intentional are idiots. Even Scouse king carracgher and Henry say it was intentional.
    For me If mings is sent off, zlatan doesnt elbow him. So any retrospective bans would be cnutish on part of F.A.

    It isn't over just yet mate,
    Bournemouth are still awful in defence, and now down to 10!
