First Horlock banned for ‘Aggressive Walking’, now Pep in trouble for ‘Aggressive Talking’...no agenda eh?
I get the frustration at the lack of consistency. lukaku should have been charged and banned and Wenger should have been charged for his bullshit the other week. In isolation though, I don't think it is unreasonable to ask Redmond and Pep to clarify what went on and then presumably just ask Pep to tone it down a bit in future when he's addressing opposition players in front of the cameras.There's no need for an explanation though. Redmond has already stated what had happened. I wonder if the fa wanted an 'explanation' as to why lukaku lashed out at a Brighton player, twice! Corrupt ****s. (Im not having a go at you btw)

Maybe they won't even ask him to tone it down a bit. TBH that's just my assumption because I personally think he should have toned that down a bit. If he wanted to compliment Redmond he could have done the whole thing in a better and more friendly way. Redmond has taken it all well, clearly respects Pep and appreciated the compliments but let's not forget, even he said that it was done aggressively. You may not think a manager should tone it down from being aggressive towards opposition players but I do. Just a difference of opinion, we don't have to agree.Why should he tone it down a bit? There's nothing in the rule book against it
I agree with you. Wouldn't want Wenger or Klopp doing similar to one of ours. BBC are reporting that Pep regrets his actions and admits he needs to control himself better (press conference underway just now).Maybe they won't even ask him to tone it down a bit.
