bloody hell pogba should be off for that

Tombstone · 15 Jan 2017 at 16:33

Well Oliver has set a precedence now with that booking, rightly or wrongly, he now has to give a yellow or 2nd yellow for every tackle like that

Purdy · 15 Jan 2017 at 16:34

How many more weeks manu going to get the decisions they require?

badgeruk · 15 Jan 2017 at 16:34

Yellow*for every*successfully tackle in the game ? What's the minimum number of players a team can field before its a forfeit ? *

Shamikebab · 15 Jan 2017 at 16:34

Carrick has been well off the pace so far, passes going nowhere, losing track of runners.

Thats not what I am saying at all , as I dont think it was a yellow, Im saying that if Oliver says it is a yellow then in order to maintain consistency he now must give a yellow for every tackle like it. A bookable foul cannot be a bookable foul one minute and then not be when it happens again, it either is or isnt and now Oliver has indicated that he thinks it is and so all similar should be, otherwise the first shouldnt have been

Shamikebab · 15 Jan 2017 at 16:36

christ he was booked because he dived in, not because he won or didn't win the ball.

McBain · 15 Jan 2017 at 16:37

Pogba wants way too much time on the ball, just play it instead of wanting to wrestle with everyone ffs.

That's what Purdy means, every winning ball tackle is now a*yellow card.

Dived in?

Everyone dives in for a challenge.

Dived in? It was a slide tackle and your lad made a meal of it. He cleanly won the ball
Unlike Pogba who shouldnt be on the pitch.

badgeruk · 15 Jan 2017 at 16:38

Going to say, it wasn't two footed, high and he won the ball.*Diving in is how you do a sliding tackle. Its how you dive in that results in a card or not.

Purdy · 15 Jan 2017 at 16:38

Honestly surprised no one thinks much of pogba slamming someone to the ground, violent conduct with the ball not even in the vicinity

Purdy · 15 Jan 2017 at 16:39

Go down Origi for **** sake, held back by rojo =\

fez · 15 Jan 2017 at 16:40

Those tackles are not popular with refs at the moment and a number have resulted in a red. Rightly or wrongly they are punishing them at the moment. It doesn't mean that the ref is giving cards out willy nilly though.

It was a yellow or red card depending on what he did but so far we have had one reply from*a distance so cant say which.

antijoke · 15 Jan 2017 at 16:40

Good spell for us and I feel we should be getting a second now .

cm1179 · 15 Jan 2017 at 16:40
