So how many games does he miss? Is it three?

 

So much for the easy start to the season.

 

Already making things difficult for ourselves.

 

If we get a defender in, I wouldn't let Schar back in unless someone gets an injury.

Well, it’s worked for them as well. We’ve been frustratingly poor today even up until the red card. Standing off them, poor on the ball and the same fucking gap between midfield and defense as last season. The performance so far has been the opposite of what I expected.

Just now, Kimbo said:

There was no headbutt, so it will be interesting to see the explanation.

 

FA Rules.

 

"Violent conduct is when a player uses or attempts to use excessive force or brutality against an opponent when not challenging for the ball, or against a team-mate, team official, match official, spectator or any other person, regardless of whether contact is made".

 

So even if Schar has only touched him slightly OR even not at all. The movement towards the head/face of an opponent is considered violent conduct. Always a red card, stupid thing to do from Schar, he knows better.
