They will justify it as the right decision and it already pisses me off.

Last weekend Michael Oliver showed numerous example of how to punish pushes everywhere on the pitch.

Red is not an issue.

Consistency is. If this is a red, man there is a very long list of yellows given since August that should have been a red.

But what pisses me off the most : come back one month ago. Michael Oliver at Emirates didn’t dare to send off Kovacic for City for two worst challenge than this one.

Why would Oliver suddenly change his mind and consider this is a straight red and not Kovacic ?

My feeling is that we’re more dependent of the late Xhaka/Partey relationship in midfield.

We’ve been struggling to find back the same stability/efficiency since both left/lost place.

When our midfield is running, everything ticks.
