Enforcer

And if any of ours would have played the enforcer, they would’ve been sent off.

That’s the problem.
It's almost like the ref goes into the opposition dressing room before the game and says "Look lads, as it's City and they're pretty good, I just want to let you know that if you want to rough them up a bit, I'll go easy on you. Anything daft I might have to get a yellow out but I'll do my best to keep my cards in my pocket. Got it?"

At this point, they don’t even need to do that. It’s now just a shared understanding that when you play City you’ll see extreme leniency (and when you play United you’ll see extreme strictness).

“Have at it lads!”
