Flip Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 That tackle shows how f***ed our refs are. As clear as a red gets. It seems very political rather than objective, doesn't it? "Oh, but I already gave them a red and they're losing already" is highly unprofessional. Wasn't it Dowd who didn't give Luiz a red two seasons back at St James?

Guest bimpy474 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 From the front or side you'll still break someones leg if you make contact, no difference at all. Its dangerous, studs up, two feet and off the floor, a red in every single way. Swedish referee Jonas Eriksson, had a valid point, Rafael comes from the side meaning his studs ain't going into the player the same way Debuchy was. If you come like that straight onto a player the player has to either jump away (like Yacub) or break his leg. Rafael was actually before the player. For me both are red card every day, but I do see why some referees might interpret it that way. That ref's an idiot tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flip Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 BTW I'm not defending Rafael, for me that's a red every day of the week, was just not agreeing with Nobody suggesting it was worse than Debuchy's. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The intent is a lot worse than Debuchy's, looking at it again though Debuchy's is more dangerous and the worse tackle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me both are red card every day, but I do see why some referees might interpret it that way. Fair enough its arguable that Debuchy's is even more dangerous, but I don't agree with that ref that there's any room to interpret that tackle as a yellow, as you say by the rules of the game its a red every time. Not that it matters, I know you aren't defending the tackle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The intent is a lot worse than Debuchy's, looking at it again though Debuchy's is more dangerous and the worse tackle. I'm not distingushing between the two, any two footed tackle is wrong and a braindead thing for a player to do. Tell you why, if you've ever been on the end of one you'll know why you shouldn't dish them out. Amazing players still do things like that to each other.
