Be interesting to see what SG gets for his retaliation to a studs up challenge on Herrara. The challenge on Matic was much worse and he got a three game ban for a push below the neck
That was both malicious and snide from Skirtel but very little mention of it. If any question of intent was in doubt then his reaction afterwards tells us everything. Not even an attempt to apologise. Gerrard was 'a bit silly' and was 'caught up in the moment'. Costa is a criminal. Good honest and fair reporting as ever from the clowns in the media.
Water off a ducks back for me. Our beloved media love to report on us for whatever reason, I take it as a compliment every time they inflate a situation that involves a Chelsea player, but when its the Mickeys.... Well it just about got a bottom liner on Sky Sports.
Not a peep from Mr Carragher or Souness about Skrtel, and particularly about Gerrard. Gerrard was absolutely blatant, petulant and deliberate, but he was "just a bit silly" while Costa was a "criminal". What's criminal is the bias of those total toss pots. Actually think that sums up the character of Gerrard, in that he's a thoroughly unpleasant arrogant type.
