"Could someone tell me...."

Whatever happened to Ronny Johnsen. I haven't seen him for ages. Is he injured or something?

I'm sure that Johnsen played yesterday!??
I know he came on as a sub last week, as he got a HUGE standing ovation from the fans!

Good to see him back as he's been missed.
Lets hope he doesn't get yet another knee injury!!

The problem is that there is no definition of what is "controlling" the ball for goalkeepers. According to the rules, it is if they have their hand or arm on the ball - which Barthez did. However, obviously this case shows that the rule needs looking at. How you define it? I don't know!

But he had the ball in both of his hands, and he got them both on the ball before Christie slid in.

Sure, even Ferige said the goal should have stood, but I have to disagree.

True, i think that the 3rd goal should have stood, Barthez did not have a full clutch of the ball and it was a sound tackle... this is the sort of thing we need cameras for the refs so that they can give a good decision.

and the referee was to blame for derbys third "goal"

Yep, played the full game today...In my opinion he was to blame for both Derby goals.

In fact I am wrong with that, he was starting today.

Yeh He came on for the last 10 mins last week against Aston Villa, I think he is on the bench today.

He has been but returned last week and is fit again
