I'm not entirely sure on the length of ban he will receive but it certainly won't be much of a loss for Chelsea, Begovic is no worse.
He's not as good as people make out & is far too prone to making mistakes and whilst he may 'still be young with a lot to learn' I don't think that excuse is valid considering the amount of big game experience he's had.
Hopefully someone silly with very deep pockets offers a lump for him this window.
 
2 games because it's his 2nd red of the season. And I'd take him in a heart beat - he'll go down as 1 of the best keepers of his generation.
 
You've fallen in to the media trap, he's good but not that good.
He mishandles a lot of crosses and is frequently glued to his line when corners come in, he should be dominating the 6 yard box at his size but he doesn't, his distribution is questionable too.
He's also beaten at the near post more than he should be and lets in more long range efforts than he should.
A 'keeper as good as the media claim he is should be winning/saving points for his team (even one as rubbish as Chelsea) but I can't think of anything positive he's contributed this season.
