Is Roy Keane for real?
UEFA Champions League/Europa League 5/6/7 March *** Spoilers ***
- Thread starter Cosimo

So in any situation in which a player puts his boot high, he could be sent off? Players effectively cannot volley a ball now in case somebody else runs across the line of their boot?
It was a yellow card in my opinion. I can see why the referee gave a red card but it was a harsh decision. Nani was looking at the ball the entire way and only saw his opponent at the last second when the ball went over his head making it too late to pull out. I can see why he gave a red as it is dangerous play and the boot goes straight in but its very unfortunate.

It could have been a yellow but at that speed and not slow motion I can see why the ref gave red.
Exactly, this is what people are trying to argue. Madness.
Haven't you heard? It's a game for girls now.

Yes thats right anyone who now jumps off the ground, makes a volley or an overhead kick deserves a read card according to Keane what a tit.
do you go for a volley with your studs pointing in the direction of your travel i.e with studs pointing forwards
no didnt think so
He would have been as angry as Fergie if it one of his players sent off.
He can hardly keep a straight face, lets be honest, he has an axe to grind with Utd after he was unceremoniously dumped by them.
From that angle it looks like a red.

You do when you control the ball though....which is what he was doing.

The flip side is, what if Mourinho is saying that because the ref was paid to give a red card decision against Utd and he knew about/was involved? I'd like to think that I am being paranoid but in football you never know...

So if you kick somebody in the chest it's fine, but if it's with your studs it's a sending off?
Just trying to clarify what the rules are...
He just loves the attention.

Yet Ramos is allowed to elbow people, that is clearly fine now
