1 - Aleksandar Mitrović's yellow card today was the fastest by a sub in the PL since Stefan Savic (10 secs) vs Tottenham in Aug 2011. Rapid.

We could argue all day about whether it was a red. The fact is he put himself at risk of getting a red, and that could have lost us the game. I'm not surprised his team mates had a go at him afterwards.

Shut up, man. I hope he halves you.

I missed the match today but saw the challenge earlier on and I can't believe anyone's in a tizzy about it. It's a nothing challenge made worse by the Southampton player's movement.

I appreciate Mitrovic wanted to make a mark with that tackle, however by getting that yellow so soon it was one of the contributory factors to our downturn in the last twenty minutes as the yellow prevented him from playing a more aggressive game, made him a much less valuable outlet for the pressure we were under.

 

He will grow out of it.

Wasn't much in that tackle at all tbh. Regulation, throw a leg at it and try and block it, can't see any malice there, bit rash perhaps but that's about it. Was expecting to see an absolute shocker given some of the comments at the time.

Prevented him playing a more agressive game ? Did you not see the elbow ? However, we didn't play to him and the challenge, if reckless, was understandable. Young powerful player who'd been told all week that they'll try and kick you and bully you, no surprise he goes over the top. Got to learn though, he'll not get away with it anymore.

same, he actually stopped extending his leading leg during the slide as he knew he wasn't getting there first, might even have pulled back a little but there was no way he was going in to hurt the lad like
