Kaizero Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Mentioned this in the match thread but I don't think it was a red card at all tbh. If he intended to kick the player, then yeah, it should be a red card, but as far as I could tell he didn't intend that. He was kicking in the air in frustration and happened to hit an opposition player. Basing this assumption on his surprise when he hits him and that he's not looking at him before kicking out. Yellow at most for dangerous play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anon Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Maybe I'm being soft here but I can't see how Arter's is a red unless he's through on goal. It's just a trip, he's not gone through the back of him or gone in high. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 I hate those types of foul. Ones where they’ve got no intention of playing the ball should be a straight red imo regardless of whether it’s a ‘clever foul to concede’ if it’s stopping a counter for example.

So should pulling someone down from the shoulder to stop a counter be a sending off too? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anon Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 It's a shit challenge, I just think if it's a red, anyone going in for a challenge that mistimes their kick and ends up connecting with the player will look similar to that challenge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Agreed, those should be red cards. Intentionally stopping counter-attacks when not even trying to go for the ball. The issue with Arter's - with the rules as they are - is that he's kicked him shin/knee high - no attempt made for the ball - from behind. That's dangerous and a red even by today's rules. Based on the rules, I can understand pulling back from the shoulders just being yellow. But sliding from behind and kneecapping someone to stop a counter is too far. If facing head on a player running at you, you can't just kick their shins/knee to stop them and not get a red. From behind is even worse but most refs let it slide.

John P Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Arter's was a definite red for me (Clive). He just deliberately hacked him down from behind with excessive force at knee height man. It's a blatant red. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stottie Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Had Arter tripped him, it would be yellow for cynically stopping a break. Having a full swing at knee height bumps it up to a red for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Ahmed Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 It's a shit challenge, I just think if it's a red, anyone going in for a challenge that mistimes their kick and ends up connecting with the player will look similar to that challenge. Arter didn't mistime his kick though, what he did was intentional and dangerous, he caught Joselu on the knee with a powerful kick. Blatant red.

James Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Well regardless of no ban we have Forest and Chelsea next. Play fairly well and Murphy or Atsu will be entitled to command his place in the team for the coming weeks and Kenedy will have to fight for his spot back.
