Any gifs of what Antony did to start the fisticuffs?

We were coasting towards a casual win without having been in any danger the entire game. Loved that. Sadly it got out of hand but I don't agree with some posts in various threads stating it was a bad performance. They are a tough team to play and we had complete control until the red card.
Antony got a lot of criticism on Dutch TV (Viaplay) because he didn't continue on certain "breakouts" even though there were still 5 Palace defenders in front of us and just two of our attackers on the far side of the field. Think he overall just did what he had to do and in those moments specifically did the right thing.
I was pleased with the way we played up until the Casemiro incident, Palace had no say whatsoever and for the majority of the game it looked like an easy win against a tough, defensive team. For a very long time we haven't been able to say that often.
I'd rather the sort of equity whereby we appeal and Hughes thanks Case for adjusting his shirt collar. Hugs and kisses, we twat Leeds and that suits Palace.Fair point, although in practical reality none of those clubs are catching us. Newcastle, not United, need to worry about Brighton catching them. In any event, Palace aren't taking 9 points off those three.
The real point is equity. If Casemiro was rightly sent off and banned for putting his hands around the neck of an opposing player (which he did), Ayew also should be banned.
He made a mistake on the field and hes been punished for it by the referees.Well Im sorry if I dont think somebody is free of criticism and my take is "absurd" to some of the CAF. In reality Casemiro has been our best player this season with Rashford being a close number two. He is just so present in the midfield and he completely deserves all the praise he got. Today he f... up and it really doesnt matter if the Crystal Palace player also deserved a red. Keano was being childish in 05 for his Mutv antics, Becks got shipped off to Madrid in 03, CR7 made a tit of hymself in a Piers Morgan inrerview, Rooney wanted a City transfer in 10 and Paul Ince did the unthinkable with his transfer to the Dippers.
All this players did much more for this club than Casemiro.
Like I said earlier he is the kind of guy who likes to get stuck in and I love that about him (and I dont mind the occasional red) but he still made a mistake.
He wasn‘t there was he?Martial isn't injured, but probably would have been if he'd come on
How many times you seen 1.30 min added to injury time for time wasting.7 mins added on time doesn’t mean the ref has to blow on exactly 97 mins. There was injury time and time wasting in those 7mins, which the ref has to consider.
My mistake, thought he was on the benchHe wasn‘t there was he?
Only thing to add perhaps is how strong they were in midfield down a man, and that Rashford is outstandingly good. Completely agree on your take of coasting and how it starts to look like in good old times.
I thought Fred and Bruno were feckin ace when we went down to 10 men.

We dont need MartialHe wasn‘t there was he?
City win or a draw.
We need a fit Martial.We dont need Martial
No analysis needed, it was a perfectly legitimate tackle. Ref was a bitch.Sabitzer's tackle and pass to Rashford for criminally stopped. Any analysis of whether this was a foul? Looked legit to me.
everyone is fuming about the inconsistent refereeing during "that" incident, and rightly so. But I am still pissed about the Sabitzer "free kick" that sent Rashford 1 on 1 in the 89th minute. Has anyone done a gif of it yet?
Special mention to Simon Stone for his shameful effort in the post match press conference. Take a look at yourself in the mirror you reptile.
That was so annoying and Sky NZ didn't show a replay. Looked fine in real time and Rash was through, albeit from around the halfway line.Sabitzer's tackle and pass to Rashford for criminally stopped. Any analysis of whether this was a foul? Looked legit to me.
This! Well saidThe Casemiro red card has really brought the looney tunes out in the caf.
Imagine asking for your team's best player to be disciplined further than the 3 games, just for standing up for his teammates.
I personally love the fact this team stands up for each other. No more Mark Noble carrying Herreira off the pitch incidents anymore. Not with this group.
We will miss Casa for the three games, no doubt about that. It was a bit daft to raise the hands but emotions can get the better of you in these situations.
That fecker Schluppy shoved Antony into the boards and then had a few words to say to him while he was down. But some in here are still quick to judge their own team. Some of you have reallt never laced boots on a pitch, have you?
Emotions were bound to come up.
I am sure Sabitzer and Fred can do the job for 3 games.
Oh, and Martinez is a joy to watch!
