He looked ***ged out at the beginning of that 1st half, the way he was huffing and puffing made me think he wouldn't last much longer in the 2nd. Apart from that he spent much of the match on his butt, on the turf.
I think we would have been on the wrong end of the decisions overall in the day if the ref was tougher. I've seen plenty of Serie A refs give penalties in cases like Koscielny "winning" the header, and Flamini in a couple of situations after he had got his first yellow.
Kos is a bit of a liability in these situations. (Much like Clichey used to be.) It does worry me a liitle that he's soo casual about making challenges in the penalty box. It could end up costing us big if he does this in Europe.
