I do despair. It wasn't cheating what he did, it wasn't deliberate and nobody can prove that without the touch from the hand, they wouldn't have scored an almost identical goal from that attack No. But if we're basing it on the rulings of what has been seen this season, why shouldn't it be classed as a handball? Next season I'd want the rules clarified or changed to make them more clear. You can despair all you want Nobody likes inconsistency but it would have been consistent to disallowed the goal for this season only. So the fact it was given and allowed to stand, showed more inconsistency which nobody wants... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially for English clubs. This in my opinion would give Leicester their financial strength to pray off clubs for Tielemans, Fofana, and Ndidi whilst being able to bring quality in depth consistently. You've got to be realistic, City have only broken into Champions league season after season with incredible investment. Leicester fans are realists, they know to break into the top four in a consistent basis is going to be a titanic effort year after year. The level investment involved with United, City, Liverpool and Chelsea dwarfs everyone one else now. All this talk of the big six is a load of bollocks, financially the four mentioned above are ahead of Arsenal and Spurs so it's a case of one or two of the four having bad seasons to allow someone in. Leicester had their two best chances for me these past seasons, fans coming back and the progression of the four clubs will make it even harder over the next few years to break that grip of top spaces. Spurs and Leicester will need to go all out for Europa whenever they have the chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By all means, if his hand was out by his side or he moved his hand towards it even, then it's harsh but at least there's a thought process behind it. You'll never get full consistency over the season. They changed the ridiculous handball ruling earlier this season. I'd rather they made less dumb decisions than continued making dumb decisions for the sake of consistency because they spent the start of the season making dumb decisions. But that's just me. You won't find me denying that the officials in English football seem to make it up as they go along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They clarified the rule to say it must be the immediate touch for the assist. Which this wasnt. It was also bloody clever from Kane imo not to try and put it in himself which going for the golden boot you’d think he would try but he knew if he scored it himself it would have been disallowed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
