I doubt he went on the pitch thinking he was going to do one of our players either, I don't think any player does that, but do me a favour saying that was a "last ditch lunge that he got all wrong", its nowhere near the ball, and he's looking exactly where he hits him, its a f**king malicious assault on a fellow players because he'd the audacity to run 80 yards past most of their team, and was just about to shoot and perhaps score, he knew exactly what he was doing, it was out of pure frustration at their situation, and was intended to stop Sane.
Its my opinion mate sorry you dont agree. The diaz one was completely opposite and was frustration and thuggery.
But for the first, he has to make a challenge there for his team. Sane is the fastest player in english football and he got it wrong. Its exactly the same as kanes. Bad challenge, red card, nothing more.
What is more worrying is not one off challenges like that, its refs consistently getting it wrong, giving yellow cards on clear reds. Probably knowing if they give a red it is literally game over with the way we play
