best case would be a compromise. The red stands but they reduce the suspension to 1 game. Saves face for the ref. On the opposite side, we can't even claim compassion for his previously unblemished record given he's already served a 3 match ban carried over from last season. On the captaincy side. Shouldn't be stripped of the captaincy for this, but shouldn't gave a keeper as captain from the start. A centre back or centre mid would always be my choice. Right in the thick of it!

I match would have sufficed. Now let's hope this episode is behind us, and City can get on with getting back into winning mode with a win on Saturday. Don't you think we have had enough bad refereeing decisions in past 2 games to last a season?
Just read that Gabriel of Arsenal has had his red card overturned. Didn't he kick out, however slight it was, at Costa? How can there be such inconsistency?
