He had to go. Isak was the last man and Virgil took his leg before the ball. Saying that, I know what you mean.
Trent lucky not to have followed Virgil to an early bath, manicure, pedicure, exfoliation and all over body moisturiser... ... today's footballers eh? ... ****ers...
Taking a leg before winning the ball happens in every game, there's always contact when you make a tackle.
I don't like seeing all these reds, it spoils the contest, although great for bantz. I think the booking for the ball throwing, there are times when it should be given but I didn't think Trents was, I know rules are rules but just all seems a bit petty to me BUT there are times when it should be given, especially when players are using it for delaying tactics, Trents one was just more petulance and all that was required was a verbal warning of the new rules.
Jamie Carragher spitting mad (see what I did there?) at VVD red card...and I quote "we don't know it was a goal scoring opportunity cos of the foul...the striker might have had a poor first touch"
Anyone that thinks bringing down a fwd when you're last man and he's in on goal doesn't present a chance is off their trolley.
Personally think it would have been mad to send Trent off. He threw a ball and had a bit of a scrap with a fellow Scouser. A blue Scouser at that. I mean, come on, all part of the game.
Hmmmmm.... now you know I love you ... but I have a teeny weeny suspicion that you have never, and will never, ever, admit to being impressed by either of these 2 particular clubs
