The disallowed goal was a joke.

But genuinely don't get the objections to the red cards.

The first one went over the ball, studs first in to the standing leg.
Redknapp and Neville going on about intent is stupid.

The guy didn't intend to do it (imo) but he was out of control and endangered an opponent so it's a red all day long.

And Jota was simply a moron.
His first yellow was wrong (imo) but he should have been given a yellow a couple of mins previously.
But to do a clear yellow card foul 90 seconds after getting a yellow is plain stupid.

No idea what the problem is with the reds tbh

When they went down to 9 men you should have been scoring for fun

9 men and a last gasp OG for a lucky win

Not that I care though

Agree with all of this but would add that the first yellow for Jota was not just wrong but bizarre, he did nothing to get that. Doesn't change the fact that the second was idiocy on his behalf but could have come about from the first, the fact it came about so quickly afterwards makes me think he was annoyed about the incorrect decision. It's still his fault but bad officiating caused it in the first place.

First red was fine yeah and I'll be saying the same thing when Bruno Guimaraes does it again later in the season - and he will. He did it last season against Southampton (was admittedly worse as he got less of the ball, just clipped the ball but then got the shin. He was clearly going for the ball and got it first though) and 100% deserved the red card he got for it - and 3 match ban which hurt us.

Three matches on top of the team having to play the rest of the match with ten is too harsh a punishment IMO. They could make it one by default and increase that in exceptional circumstances as they do with certain other reds.

Just before his first yellow Jota should have been booked but wasn't...I think that's why the ref gave him that one.
But generally, lots of players get unjust yellow cards but don't act stupidly.
Would and have said the same when our players act stupidly

Jota only gets a one match ban for 2 yellows

Been some **** house double yellows this season. The Tomiyasu one against Palace was ****ing ludicrous. Got booked because Ben White took ages over a throw in and then handed the ball to Tomiyasu. Then got booked again for putting his hand on Ayew's back.

Neither should have been a yellow.
