Sunderland have scored three PL own goals this season; the same number as the remaining 19 Premier League clubs combined Lee Cattermole was sent off for the 7th time in the PL Vieria, Dunne and Ferguson are the three players that have been sent off more times than Lee Cattermole in the Premier League
first foul was aggressive and he went for the ball i think, but because he makes contact deserves a straight red.. second foul could have snapped meyler's leg like a twig... it was a deliberate stamp on his lower leg... deserves more than a red in my opinion and thats not because it happened to a city player, any tackle like that in football deserves punishment.
To be honest Andy, if you were at the game and you saw just how hard Clattermole flew in to that challenge, you might change your mind. You couldn't tell just how fast Clattermole was moving on the TV camera, it was unnecessarily hard and the force of it was probably as much the reason behind the red as anything else.
When Cattermole is farmed out to some mid table championship club in January and commits a leg breaking tackle on Knockaert you will see it differently. The bloke is a thug in a football shirt
Asmir Begovic is the fifth goalkeeper to score a goal in the Premier League The four other goalkeepers to score in the Premier League are Schmeichel, Howard, Robinson, Friedel
