[FMBlade1]

Why not Rugby tackle him?

Why not Rugby tackle him?

Errrr..... Because it's not rugby?

 

[FMBlade1]

Errrr..... Because it's not rugby?

So?

 

[Houso]

Because then he's out for three games and we have a defence of Bash, Bryan and Robinson.

 

[Liaminho9]

He takes him down he’s banned for 2 games; when we’re already so depleted at CB.

Real Madrid win Super Cup - and it's all down to Federico Valverde's red card - BBC Sport

So?

So what?

Yes, a very very equivalent situation.

Fuck me.

 

[Houston_Blade]

Why not Rugby tackle him?

They score and he’s out for 3 games if he does.

 

[United Aren't Back.]

Why not Rugby tackle him?

Souness has just made it clear he'd expect Egan to take him out.

Should have sliced Vardy in two

Pathetic lack of professionalism.

Last minute 10 men could have coped

How do we cope for the next 2 games then?

It's the most clear cut example of when to commit the professional foul I've seen since Suarez vs Ghana

 

[GreasyChipBeattie]

If ever there was a time to get sent off it was today, shortly after he smashed Vardy into a thousand pieces.

Hate Suarez but he's a winner.

We're not.

Yeah, but other than that...

 

[Russ]

He could have slid in and intercepted the through ball if you ask me.

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Should have broken him into two peices to maybe secure a point,then worry about the next two/three games which we are'nt expected to get owt from anyway.

 

[Digger]

If a striker is a lot faster than you, stand a yard back.

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

But the fault dont lay at Egans feet,it was numpty Flecks poor control that opened up that chance for them.

 

[Wincobank S9 Blade]

They all seem to switch of very easy this season play till final whistle ffs especially with players like Vardy it’s just unbelievable they put in a decent shift but let’s be honest where nowhere near good enough I’m stressed

 

[Crabstick]

So let’s say Egan took Steptoe out. They may have scored from the free kick afterwards. It wasn’t certain we were gonna hold onto that point.

Albeit unlikely, Egan missing the next two games represents a huge blow to a prospective and theoretical 6 points.

Last time I checked, 6 is greater than 1

Sorry, I might be an old romantic but I hate this kind of attitude. If we’re condoning kicking people up in the air whenever they’re through on goal we should be ashamed. It’s not a “professional foul” it’s cheating - nothing less. All of you whining about players winning penalties against us due to diving might like to reflect a bit. I want nothing to do with my team playing that way.

Play someone else who doesn't get caught out

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Troll poster trying too hard here. Need to be more subtle.

 

[YES Blade]

If we were winning the match then maybe, but we were only drawing ffs! We are fucking terrible if we’re that desperate for one point to lose a player for three matches!

I'd rather take my chances with having ten men for three minutes which starts with defending a free kick 40 yards out than take my chances with Ramsdale vs Vardy one on one

Clubs that utilise it win points
Those that don't fail

Harsh reality

When you isolate today’s game, you’re absolutely right. But what about the next two?
