Today’s Football 2020/21 Season

[Nymzee]

Why can’t Burak Yilmaz be our Turk on the bench instead of Tosun. Beast.

 

[Chris O'Connor]

Wasn't much in it but you simply can't do that. There is no grey area. He's kicked out and, while lightly, has caught van Aanholt

Must admit I've watched it several times but still can't see any flex of the knee or him kick out, not even sure if there was any real contact although probably was the slightest touch if anything.

Players need protecting from foul play but you can go too far the other way, and they have.

At best it was extremely soft, but probably ludicrously harsh and ridiculous.

Don't agree. You get bundled to the ground - you get up and carry on. You do not lash out with your feet at an opponent. Pereira got what he deserved.

I don't think he lashed out, even 'to lash out' implies force and a kick and it wasn't that by any stretch - he touched him, there was no flex and straightening of the knee, there was no kick out at all.

incredibly harsh for me,

Pereira for West Brom sent off mins after they made it 1-1, maybe a touch unlucky-maybe not

lol At the comments Picked up on the mic once he shows the red.

 

[KaiserEFC]

So much to like about Lille

It was a red. I’m assuming you are watching a different incident to the rest of us.

Burak the Turkish phenom.

Burak the Turkish phenom.

Bloke hasn’t realised he’s a pensioner yet

Not harsh at all. You just get up off the ground. If the opponent is still standing there, you roll away and get up. Pereira lashed out with his studs in the WBA player's stomach. Red card every time. The only thing wrong was that the ref showed him a yellow at first...

 

[Ring master]

palace lead, great strike, few chances in the 30 or so seconds leading up to it

You're entitled to your opinion but the most favourable verdict to the officials I've heard is someone describe it as very soft

 

[GwladysBlue]

Carlo has us just in front of Crystal Palace. We’re lucky to have him, we truly are.

 

[Abraders]

Not a red for me that he barely even makes a motion towards him
