Rojo actually gets the ball first (which is impressive given the angle). I think it could still be given as the ball doesn't go far and he cleans out Toure.

Are you soft? He gets caught and seconds later throws himself to the ground. Even if that was against for United, it's far too soft for a pen.

I sense a small amount of bias. I'm a chelsea fan so want United to get something from this but the first one was a definite penalty. You can't expect to kick somebody's foot in control of the ball in the area and not get a penalty against you. The second one even though Rojo got the ball he didn't divert it out of yaya's path so he would have got to it, his follow through took yaya out so again a penalty.
 
Since when is tackling from behind not a foul and therefore a pen (regardless of whether you get the ball)?

Also being booted on your Achilles heel will hurt quite a lot... I'd go down holding my ankle if someone did that to me.
