    I know he was touched by the keeper but he was halfway to the floor and the ball well on its way out there is no question he dived

    no penalty for me, his knee's were already on the floor when almunia touched him, UEFA need to be charging him if fairs fair.

    They take a gamble on the keeper sweeping their legs - Eduardo didn't get it the other night but Rooney did.

    Don't see how that's a penalty and the Fletcher - Arshavin tackle wasn't. Clearest penalty I've ever seen.

    Eboue's dive was terrible though.

    No

    Thought Rooney was ok, Fletchers was a definite pen and a card for me, yet again, Man U at home, no chance for the ref to see these pens hey?!
