I've watched our players get clobbered week in, week out. Most of the offenders don't even get cautioned. When they do it's usually just a yellow card. The tackle on Kun today deserved a red as it was a premeditated - "you are not getting past me so you're going down". The commentators on the feed I was watching both said Dann was lucky to stay on the pitch and he made the tackle because he was isolated. (He may even have been the last man).I'm not condoning Yaya's rash challenge a few minutes later but you could see that he was angry at the treatment that Kun got - fortunately he got his head back to sanity.
Someone in our management should take a leaf out of baconface's book and complain that our players are not getting the protection from crude challenges.
Manuel got more angry at Pardew stepping into his technical area than jumping up and down when Kun got scythed down.

Pellegrini was angry because Pardew was trying to get Yaya sent off, and this in the wake of the soft yellow for Dann. Pellegrini's reaction to Pardew was a direct consequence of Dann getting away lightly.
 
It was a red card because Kun was the last man, he was away and Dan knew it. It was also a red card because the tackle nearly took Kun's teeth out. As the game drew on I saw Yaya on his back more often than Katie Price. The fouling today was beyond cynical and obviously aimed at our game changers, but they disguised it behind what was a very hight tempo game. I feared a red for Yaya today and for me it is testament to both him and the rest of our team that we kept our discipline, played football and beat them. Clogged we were

Correct. That was a red card all day for the foul on Kun. YaYa steaming in on someone was you take out Kun and it goes improperly punished we'll take you out. Pelligrini's reaction to Pardew's animated protestations was instigated by the foul on Kun.

That about covers it
 
You see it in all forms of football be it sunday league or Premier League. Essentially it's just shit players taking out their frustration and jealousy on players who are just more talented than them and they can't take it.
 
One of ours going to get hurt just how Stoke did to Ramsey.
Our player gets hacked all the time and we get no protection from the ref.
Respect to Mangala and Yaya for standing up for a team mate.
 
What I am pleased to see with our side is that we give it back to them when they try it on. With Sagna and Kolorov now along with Mangala and Kompany the back and Yaya in the middle, we have a team that doesn't take any shit as well as a team of quality.

This,before long one of our star players is going to end up very seriously injured,then it will be.....'oh we knew that would happen sooner or later' someone at the club needs to get up on their hind legs and call this shit for what it is, which is a policy of stopping our star players WHATEVER it takes,this shit has gone on long enough,can you seriously see maureen or that drunken piss pot fergiescum putting up with that,like fuck they would.
 
The last time I remember Kun going off injured was against Everton, when he was running through about 3 of them who'd all clearly had instructions to kick him. Good players all get fouled more, but there's a difference between being too quick for an opponent and getting kicked in the knees long after the ball has gone. Ian Wright said it was a straight red on MOTD.

Players get kicked all the time. The Aguero one was bad, but you see tackles like that a lot, the problem was that he actually caught Aguero straight on the knee. Dan didn't mean to catch Aguero's knee, he just stuck his leg out. Like I said, it's part of football.
 
Same punishment for a slight tug on the shirt or kicking the ball away ........... that was a deiberate kick at a player deserving of a yellow possibly last man and violent conduct to boot no attempt at playing the ball ........ if its a deliberate elbow its red .......punch someone red ......headbutt someone red ...........but kick them and its ok .......rules are fucked up at the moment the punishment did not fit the crime ..,...... again
