But he's also a fantastic ball playing defenderHe’s a nasty little shit. And an idiot too. Dangerous combination for everyone.

Yep and to those who previously said “ah it’s just part of how he plays etc” or “he’s so good we just have to put up with it” and “ah he’s only had 3 reds for us he only misses a few games here and there” showed to me what a huge concern it is, these aren’t 2x bookings red cards that centre mids get from a few mistimed tackles, these are reckless, dangerous out of control challenges which will cost us hugely if it means he’s out for another 3-4 games.The only downside to today. Utterly brainless.
Mate, come on.He actually slipped which is why his left follows through on the opponent. It happened to many in the 2 d half today. It happens to Romero and the knives come out
Well that's what happenedMate, come on.
Yep, controversial but for me if he can’t/wont sort this out and calm himself and his tackling down or change his technique I’d sell him in summer.He’s a great player, and when he’s at it he’s a joy to watch.
But we can’t afford to have someone like him constantly on the sidelines through suspension. Our recent run of bad form is arguably on his shoulders; as well as the injuries to Van De Ven and Maddison.
He didn’t slip, it was a horrible tackle and should’ve been a red, we are very very lucky it wasn’t. It would’ve totally ruined everything positive today.He actually slipped which is why his left follows through on the opponent. It happened to many in the 2 d half today.

Big fat NO.Any chance of a retrospective ban or is this issue closed now with VAR?
He did slip on the follow through but shouldn't have got so hard in the first place. If he doesn't fly in he doesn't lose his footing. I'm not excusing the challenge, it was needless but he does slide which causes the follow through with the left boot.He didn’t slip, it was a horrible tackle and should’ve been a red, we are very very lucky it wasn’t. It would’ve totally ruined everything positive today.
Ange and Son need to have a word.
Romero shouldn’t be vice captain either if he keeps tackling like this.

AbsolutelyThat challenge on Wilson was for Richy. Wilson absolutely deserved it. And Vicario winding Wilson up too at the end was joyous.
