It's astounding. Considering we've got a player currently serving a 4 match ban for his 2nd red card of the season who hadn't got one single red in 500 appearances before he arrived here. He didn't cripple anyone, or injure any one yet he faces more punishment than players who have put our guys out for months.
The whole thing stinks. I watch players like Fabinho and Rodri get away with at least 4-5 yellow card worthy fouls every single time they're on the pitch, yet luke shaw makes one foul the other night against brentford and he was straight in the book. I don't understand it.
