Mourinho giving it to mings. fecking brilliant!

 

[Garethw]

He go stamped on his fecking head! That was a restrained reaction in my opinion.

Yeah, no fecking way will he pick up a 4-5 game ban after retaliating to a head stomp.

 

[DevilRed]

Look at the replay. Very difficult for him to see that with bodies in the way, and he's watching where the ball is.

Thats not an excuse though is it? If one referee struggles to see everything then the prem maybe should bring in another referee or replays.

The quality of refereeing has been atrocious in the league this year. Absolutely rock bottom. Cant remember the last time it was this bad. Thats saying something.

 

[royboy16]

Actually Ibra's header reminds me of Alonso's elbow on Bellerin in the Chelsea v Arsenal game. Ibra is just raising his arm to cover himself in the challenge.

However the commentators don't say anything like that when in the Chelsea game, Alonso was covering himself. Actually the Alonso challenge was worse in my opinion.

Such hypocrites.

He knew he was there,he was swatting him away and knew he would be stuck to him going up for the header.

 

[JON.B]

Jose giving Mings some serious shit there.

 

[SSSSnake]

Loved seeing Jose have a polite word with Mings there haha

 

[Massive Spanner]

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...

There was definitely contact by Jones. I'm sorry but in the modern game if a player lunges in with his leg out like that, the other player has a right to go over it if they still have the ball. You may not endorse it, most don't, but it's the way it is and it's a penalty.

 

[RedSky]

More reds to come in this second half, Jose is going for Mings.

 

[JohnnyKills]

The ref must be waiting to send mings off now...

 

[peridigm]

Jones has reminded us that he's always got a ricket in his locker, and when one comes, he goes to pieces a bit

First game back in how many? Was never going to come in like he didn't miss a beat. Best possible opponent to get him back. He and Rojo have shown to deserve just as much of the starting pair as Bailly and Smalling. Needed rotation. We'll win as long as we don't lose our head and let Friend even it up.

 

[leontas]

Jose trying to rile up Mings. Surprised that Ibra is starting the second half.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

This is going to be a feisty half, can see some nasty tackle flying about.

 

[JON.B]

No subs.

 

[AndyJ1985]

Did Mou tell that Bournemouth player to feck off lol

That's what I thought he said too

 

[BIGbadBOO4]

Poor poor poor from Jose. Zlatan will be sent off 100% today. Zlatan been so poor he deserved to be subbed.

 

[BringNaniBack]

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...

What about Agueros elbow earlier in the season then? We are United fans yes but you have to take the tinted glasses off. All serious elbows or attempts to harm a player need to be dealt with.

 

[arthurka]

The referee clearly saw Zlatan's part in that, but I doubt that will stop the FA - the media are going to go mad about that elbow.

Not sure. Both Henry and Carra got what zlatan did.

 

[Rooney1987]

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.

Also 1 of those games would be an FA cup game which I'm not that bothered about. Europa and top 4 should be priority now.

 

[AXVnee7]

Time to put this lot to the sword

 

[Wowi]

Look at the replay. Very difficult for him to see that with bodies in the way, and he's watching where the ball is.

Have you noticed how often players get stamped on in games? Players are very good at avoiding this if they want to - Mings had a look at Zlatan and Rooney, and ended up hitting Zlatan pretty much bang on. It can look like an accident due to the speed and the things going on, but I don't buy that for one second.

 

[Murder on Zidanes Floor]

Mourinho giving it to Mings! Get that fire back lads!

 

[AlecHDR]

Would love to know what Mourinho told Mings there.

 

[JTW95]

I fecking hope Mings steps on a plug when he gets home tonight.

 

[Woodzy]

He even looks like a fecking thug.

Seriously, the cnut could have done some serious damage to Ibra there. I hope his punishment is far severe than Ibra's.

 

[2 man midfield]

Mings in on Zlatan straight away.

 

[drdoityourself]

Calamity Jones

 

[royboy16]

Jose just jestered an elbow to mings coming out of the tunnel.

 

[Janson]

Wth is Jones doing?

 

[Djemba-Djemba]

Look at the BBC website

About 5 or 6 paragraphs on Zlatan's elbow.

One line on him getting fecking curb stomped.

 

[minoo-utd]

What is happening with Jones!?

 

[Ivor Ballokov]

Go on Jose!

 

[Irrational.]

Fecking Jones is absolutely brainless.

 

[LouisDanGaal]

Actually I don't think Mings stamp was intentional. Does he really want to be on Ibra's bad side???

ibra had already thrown him on the floor and he looked at him

 

[Dinghy]

when?

Seconds before Mings stamped him on the head.

 

[klayton88]

Any whiskey nose bought the ref posts from Bluemoon yet?

 

[devil in me]

This is going to be a feisty half, can see some nasty tackle flying about.

That will suit us. we need to get up for it.

 

[RedTillI'mDead]

Actually I don't think Mings stamp was intentional. Does he really want to be on Ibra's bad side???

I agree, I just can't imagine any professional footballer going for a head stamp of all options

 

[pauldyson1uk]

The ref must be waiting to send mings off now...

and Zlatan , I can see one or both being sent off.

 

[Rob67]

Cause two wrongs don't make a right?

Sometimes, yes they do. Serves him right.

 

[duffer]

If Bournemouth can hold out for 45 minutes away to United with 10 men, it would be ridiculous.

 

[NJM78]

Tyrone Mings winner in 90th minute.
