Can't appeal 2nd yellow cards.

Aye.  
 

VAR can intervene next season however but I don’t think that gets reversed.  
 

All blatant errors will have VAR now.  Most pertinent for incorrect corners/GKs and such.   Second yellows too.

I guess you're right but I think the ref has a duty to keep 11 players on the pitch unless some serious foul play has occured and I really don't think that falling over and not asking for a foul meets that threshold. 

I don’t think they do in the laws of the game or how they are judged/incentivised.  
 

Which I think is right. That thinking is how you get blatant reds not given early in a game.  Like the De Jong Alonso World Cup final kick.  Ref didn’t want to send anyone off from the start. 
 

If there was no VAR and the penalty was given - it would be a dive.  In that instance Ramseys only true saving grace would be to suggest it wasn’t a foul or he fell over straight away - as I’ve seen players do in the exact same situation (being on a yellow, diving and realising they are on a yellow).

Has he tried to engineer a penalty? Yes. Has he dived? Kinda.  

He gives the ref a decision as they say.  

From the footage, the ref appeared to have made his decision... he points for a goal kick. Then Fernandes and casemeiro surround him, make their mouths go, and he pulls out 2nd yellow and red.

 

He's been pressured into carding Ramsey.

Yeh the ref was weak.  But Casemiro and Fernandes were right to pressure the ref (acting in their teams interest as 2 of their most senior pros and captain). There was a decision to make and the ref folded.

Definitely. The ref was weak as piss there, but it also shows that we need to get back to shithousing like we did a couple of seasons ago. 

 

Any player who doesn't protest a shit decision in our team needs to be looked at whether he belongs at this level.

Aye there was some contact, had to watch it a few times but you can see his boot get flicked. 

 

 

I thought I saw it as well at the time. Certainly didn't look like he was diving to get a pen.

Very good to see!

 

This was a good signing and worth the money spent.

 

He's been exceptional lately.

 

Wish he could add some goals to his positive play.

The tonali Joe Ramsey three compliment each over very well. 

Ramsey doesn't need to worry as much about the defensive side of the game and can start off our moves further up the pitch.
