Whether his studies are up or down is really irrelevant. Lots of other things have to be taken into consideration. It was a tackle out of control, Both feet up off the ground, The boot was high into the knee, No intention of playing the ball...

You don't need to stick your studs into an opponents knee to do damage. KDB could have easily had his cruciate done with a tackle like that.

Shocking tackle. Blatant red

FFS will you clowns read the threads you are replying to.

I replied to someone saying it was studs up pointing out it's not studs up.

I'm not interested in 20 people telling me its knee height when my comment literally includes that statement.

It’s not about the studs. It’s about it being a knee high lunge at a player who is in full flow. If that isn’t a red card I dont know what is.

i was watching the referee looking at the monitor and it actually looked worse in slow mo. He wax clearly instructed to change his decision. Every time the ref goes to the monitor the decision is reversed. Who is really making the decisions?

I agree it's a red all day long. No attempt to get the ball, high and reckless.

Would have been a soft red,imo.

Though,it will be interesting to see if there are similar incidents in the next few weeks,and what the outcome is.

They were battered at Brighton and very very lucky.

I guess we'll find out come the end of the season...Brighton decent outfit

Yes, like I said, it's a high tackle, but it's not studs up, which would mean youre making contact on the player you're fouling with your studs.

He went across KDB so the side of his boot caught the leg. If it was flush the top of his boot, studs exposed would have made contact.

The most positive thing about today is not losing.

Really? I thought it was our ability to keep fighting even when we are not playing at our best, not giving up and getting a good result against a team that were really at it today.

Great game , did well to get a point but should have been 3 really. Why not stick Rodri on that far post to defend Trippers free kick. It was nailed on where it was going and Ederson left the space.

Yes, you're just rewording the fact it wasn't a studs up challenge and repeating it back to me.

Part glad we got a point after such a poor performance but bit disappointed we didn’t win after getting back to 3-3.

We don’t look fully fit to me as we haven’t been tested yet and it showed at times. We started the game sloppily today with Ake misplacing a pass in the first 20 seconds and defensively it carried in for most of the game.

The positives for me were De Bruyne, Gundogan and Haaland.

Call me a clown again and you'll have a stud stuck in you and it won't be to the knee.
