Holy shit, Ramon Vega sounds nothing like you'd expect him to at all.

[MDK]

So Dele Alli posted this on Snapchat or something after the game last night

[Baddar]

Aguero 1-0. Looked offside.

[Gazz]

'Looked?'

He was about three yards off. Bloody refs, giving Man City everything all the time.

[Baddar]

I'd typed that after the goal went in live. It became more clear after the replay. 

Great solo equaliser from Anita!

[Chris2K]

That's a lovely goal from Anita. Couldn't have placed it any better.

[MDK]

Well of course Newcastle are around to ruin my bet

[Gazz]

Vurnon Anita has scored?

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

If Newcastle are going to start picking up results I'd rather they got something against Man City and dragged themselves to safety before the Tottenham game.

That Aguero goal was a joke. At no point was he onside. He was stood 3 yards offside the entire time.

Well, he was onside by the time he headed the ball past the keeper, and that's probably why he didn't flag. No idea how he doesn't spot that though, looking along the line.

The linesman shouldn't even be looking for that though.  He's looking right across the line when he heard the ball struck. Aguero was stationary yards ahead of every other player.

[Baddar]

Absolutely. But the fact Newcastle players drifted back probably put doubt in his mind. I mean, I'm finding it difficult to defend him here so I'd be interested to hear his take on it, not that he'll ever have to publicly explain it.

[Baddar]

I feel like commentators say Aguero doesn't go down easily about 10 times a season...after he's gone down easily.

Perhaps in this case he meant that he didn't scream and shout about it after? I dunno.

[Cheeky Hughes]

Bit nasty there from Perez

[Baddar]

Dropped points for City. Won't knock that! 

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Well done Newcastle.

[Colly]

I feel like we're getting to the point that they could put a DVD out of dodgy offside decisions given against us versus City, and none of them are marginal.

BUT REFEREES AND LINESMEN DO NOTHING WRONG
