Its hard to compare the two. He'll get less i'd imagine since he has the "trying to get the ball" excuse and that Cantona was generally more aggressive. A couple of months surely though?
It was harsh for Cantona and its certainly a harsh ban for Hazard. Hazard shouldn't have reacted how he did but what the **** was the ball boy doing? They are both ****s in my opinnion.
that was a kid ... Cantona kicked an adult .. and what ball he was aiming at? .. there was no chance he would hit the ball without hurting the kid .. both has lost it
Yeah there is that, although i hear the kid was 17 which is very different to kicking a 13 year old. Thats why i said they are hard to compare, lots of minor differences that could have an effect. For me a 2-3 month ban would be about 10-15 games and i would find that fair.
@henrywinter Rafa Benitez finishes a lively press conference by saying that ball-boy incident is reflective of a fame-driven "Big Brother society"
Let's not get carried away, he hardly touched him. All this thinking he should be banned for eight months is frankly insane. You both sound utterly demented. He was deservingly sent off and they should add a couple of extra games to his ban but calm down will you.
Chief, like i said to COE, if that was a United player, there would be a ****storm, calling him to be banned until the end of the season.
But it wasn't a United player, cut it with this victim crap, you're starting to sound like a scouser.
