Endangered? Who writes this rubbish?

Well, there is an argument that it is dangerous. Many sports completely outlaw touching players when they are in the air - if he falls on his head there, it's an issue. Am not saying it was dangerous play by Harry, i think Llana knew harry would be there and jumped anyway, harry was standing his ground. But, if you think harry delilberatly backed into him while he was in the air (and many neutrals do), then i see how you might get to endangerment.

Why is it ok for Lallana to jump out of control yet Kane is being blamed? Lallana didn’t even jump straight up. He jumped into Kane.

 

[Shadydan]

Shouldn't have said anything, mountain out of a molehill.

I remember Lallana being the strangler who wrapped his hands round a Spurs player George Marsh's throat.

They should put Kane in prison for 10 years. It’s the least he deserves for not playing for Man Utd or Liverpool.

Liverpool fans?

It is a contact sport - at least it was last I heard.

Expect a lot more of this crap if we're going to challenge for the title. Rival clubs will throw all sorts of mud to try and stop us.

Yep,but we’ve got Jose now and he’ll just throw it back but harder.

I get why making a back for someone is dangerous, but Harry isn't to blame for this. Lallana is. Kane put himself under the spot where the ball was going to land and Lallana tried to jump over him to get it. He had no right trying to win that ball. If a player runs 10 metres and jumps at you to try and win a ball that is clearly yours are you expected to stay straight and take the hit to protect your opponent? That's silly.

 

[JC-Rule]

Kane had a little glance and bought the foul which ended up being a pen.

If an Arsenal play did the same, Keown wouldn't be making the same point.

That's what sad about these pundits, they can't leave there own bias outside of the points they make, and for that reason, we can't take anything they say seriously.

What should Kane have done, move out the way and not challenge? or challenge in a way where their heads collided?

..As opposed to the likes like of Kante going hard with the boot in to hurt keepers or players all the time. Oopsie.

Sky choose their pundits carefully. Liverpool play and Carragher is on joint commentary with Souness in the studio.
United play and Neville is joint commentator with Evra,now,in the studio.
