Vardy starting in an offside position but nailed before being able to challenge for the ball... pen?! :p

This explains it quite simple really

The foul, such as it was, was made while Kane was attempting to play the ball. therefore, by that definition the offside should have been given.

On the subject of the Mustafi foul, it's the sort of contact that happens in the box frequently. In yesterday's match there was a near identical one on Koscielny which went unpunished. Possibly because Kos didn't throw himself to the ground with arms spread wide

Kane did not attempt a header. He was barged before the ball got to him

who cares really does it take 2 pages of crap waffle and bickering.

kane got a slight touch and then dived. a pen was given, even though he was offside is the buildup.

It just shows the more you cheat and throw yourself about the more likely you are to get a penalty or freekick.

The refereeing in that was was appalling, so many mistakes and wrong things given.

Firmino benched, not a surprise really plus mane worked well up front last game so can easily give it another shot

Makes sense, Firmino is going to play an integral role on the run in, can understand trying not to risk him at this stage. I'm nervous about this one tbh.
