Should know better not to put your head on to someone else's... Red cards can be given for divers, trying to get someone sent off by exaggerating something is unsportsmanlike. Schar should have acted differently to every armchair expert, yet he was shoved down needlessly minutes after going in hard on him, it is not unnatural to be pissed off. It was no different to the Casemiro red card against Palace, it is normally the club hoppers with nothing going for them that end up being the biggest shithousers.

Reluctant Striker Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 Definitely do not like the amateur dramatic performances of those who are not genuinely hurt. But, a forehead being shoved forward to another is essentially no different than a shove with hands, etc. All players should know not to do it, to avoid an unnecessary red. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reluctant Striker Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 Only 1 game, but a good start. Villa have perhaps pulled off a great piece of business getting Onana. Pleased West Ham decided against paying the required price for Duran. And on other clubs.. I hope Danilo recovers well. One of those broken ankles with foot hanging at a horrible angle.

Any examples? Or do you think Schar should have escaped punishment because he plays for a team you support...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol nah players have baited players into doing something stupid and overreacting to make sure the referee does something about the obvious red card for… literally for fucking ever. It’s not great sportsmanship, but players should be expected to work on keeping their cool and to avoid doing anything that was an obvious red card. I think it’s more scandalous the weirdo who fingered Gabriel Jesus didn’t see a red card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reluctant Striker Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 Not sure which clubs have both the £'s & would see the need for Raheem Sterling, but now would seem a good time for someone to get him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Stan Posted August 19 Author Administrator Share Posted August 19 So we're playing Vardy which is great. But he's had a grand total of zero minutes in pre-season, so not so great As @Bluebird Hewitt said, we're in for an absolute twatting...

Basically you're saying you'll lose 4-0, which means you'll actually lose 5-0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
