    Tackle, any guy that rolls three times after a tackle needs to try taking up rugby <whistle>

    I'm getting fed up with grown men rolling about like they've been shot.

    We need more of this...

    Pepe should've been sent of for continual play-acting. He spent half the game lying on the floor trying to get someone sent off.

  3. Agreed, he’s not fit to play in the Premier League.

    If Big Sam or Ian Dowey went in at Arsenal, they’d have none of that nonsense.

    i really depends who you are and who you play for as far as I'm aware … some players get reds and others get away with it . if you have enough people in the media and on social platforms fighting your corner then they get rescinded even if the foul results in a broken leg.

    it happens all the time and not just in football might i add... if enough people make enough noise it's easier to let them have their way …

    Great tackle imo but modern rules make it a red

    You don't want to persecute those with the skill to consistently do it,
    but certainly punish those who eff it up and do injure the other player.

    Perhaps something like if an eff up puts a player out injured for 2N weeks,
    the offending player cannot play for at least N weeks etc.
