Was it a foul or accidental? It looked like the defender took him out but haven't seen a replay yet.
The referee didn't seem that interested,.
He walked straight into him as far as I could see. Stokes on the other hand was shielding the ball out.Definite body check but seems common place now, not the same but how many times Stokes did it 'well' last night ( or any defender blocks, holds a player off to run a ball out for a goal kick) not sure how that's not a foul no international of playing the ball do that to a defender or keeper in the box would be a free kick.

Don't think it is quite the same thing. Vincelot was running at pace and Chambers just stepped out, the Stokes type incident is more a case of two players tussling for the ball and one blocking the player to stop him getting to the ball.
Thought the Chambers thing was quite cynical.
I'm not comparing the incidents just that blocking & 'shielding' even if it results in the defender turning 90 degrees to fend off the attacker without having intent to play the ball is common
Place now bit like taking throw ins with a 20 yards radius of where it went out more of an observation than anything.
Yeah. Annoys me. All these niggly little things. Stop someone going for the ball anywhere else on the pitch and you block them and it is usually a foul. Shield the ball out for a goal kick and it's all good seemingly.I'm not comparing the incidents just that blocking & 'shielding' even if it results in the defender turning 90 degrees to fend off the attacker without having intent to play the ball is common

Not as bad as taking the corners outside the area....

that is allowed, so long as part of the ball is in the corner area (even if that part is not in contact with the ground)
Nearly every game? Really?What has fortune got over tm. He plays nearly every game and yet does absolutely nothing effectively
Chambers leg was actually across the top of Vincelots Thighs! I could see without any blocked view the guy Chambers knew exactly what he was doing and decided on taking one for the team ang got lucky the Referee was Stevie Wonders Love child, if you think about it Chambers got booked a bit later for a totally innocuous challenge why! cos the bloody ref knew he got it wrong earlier on. I get pissed off with referees with no bottleHe walked straight into him as far as I could see. Stokes on the other hand was shielding the ball out.

I can't stop laughing at that last sentence because it is so laughable. How can anyone not deem that a foul!He was booked for pulling back Murphy after he had got away from him on the half way line. Absolutely not innocuous but deliberate professional foul. More pertinently he would not have dared to touch Murphy had he been booked for any of the three free kicks he conceded in the first half (and this doesn't include the body check on Vincelot as the referee deemed that not to be a foul).
