Serious ballwatching for that cross they nearly scored from. Needs to cut that shit out. Luckily we got away with it. Great heart going forward though.
Someone said he is not getting red cards more often because he is small, sweet and shit. Ridiculous, if anything, refs book him for some soft ones quite often.That 'foul' on Carroll warrants a sacking for Mason. The first one was barely a foul, never mind a yellow, but seeing tubs dish out a free kick on a 7ft giant after falling down against the weight of a 5ft midget was really quite special.
His reputation, like Fellaini's, precedes him. It's unfair.
It was shit defending. If he had stood up to Downing and showed him down the line like any other full back would do he'd have been ok, but instead he was impatient and went straight for the ball which made up Downings mind to knock it past him. It was the same a couple of minutes later, lunged for the ball instead of shepherding the player down the line, Downing gets there first and skins him.Far from great defensively this season, it has to be said, but I think he was unlucky with the yellow card, it was really soft and Downing was never going to catch that ball anyway, and that was never foul on that big useless prick few minutes after.
Someone said it's his fifth yellow card and that means he is missing City, is it true?
He makes a lot of silly ones and then laughs and argues with the referee. He gets away with more than he's the victim ofSomeone said he is not getting red cards more often because he is small, sweet and shit. Ridiculous, if anything, refs book him for some soft ones quite often.
I didn't said it was good defending, but it's ridiculous to give yellow card for that.It was shit defending.

Yeah i don't think it was a yellow but its annoying that he keeps giving referee's a decision to make. You don't have to try and win the ball right away. Stay on your feet, try showing the player onto his wrong side and pick your moment when going to intercept. He's walking a tightrope far too often in games and he'll have every referee against him for the way he keeps reacting to their decisions.Yeah he should cut that arguing with the ref, he does it even when he is not right but I could understand him today.

For sure.Some of the criticism in this thread is bang over the top. It's as if you guys have dropped down your pants and are holding dicks at the ready for a sighting of Seamus Coleman.
Doesn't work like that though, if he sees a viable target, the crossing tends to be more accurate. He's not exactly David Beckham, but having bodies in the box helps.I remember one time where he way over hit his cross and then proceeded to complain there was no one in the box for him to cross to. Well sorry Rafael but no matter who was in the box it didn't matter as your cross was fecking shite.
