Onana has already come to his defence like Mendy did Berny amd said no one business to be offended by it.

Be intresting to see if they accept his comments and ignore the tweet, unlike with Berny

TBH they are both harmless neither warrants a second glance

Hinchcliffe will be along shortly to tell us how outraged he is

" he's the left back remember" ; )

I thought it was bullshit when Bernardo got done, I thought it was bullshit when Cavani got done, and I think it will be bullshit if Garnacho gets done.

I agree 100%
However emotions shouldn’t come in to it where the rules are concerned.
They not only charged Bernardo they crucified him.
So it’s time for consistency.

Had to google him and still non the wiser.

If anything I'd say the Garnacho tweet could be considered the more offensive and insensitive.

At least Bernardo was comparing Mendy to a cartoon representation of a human even if it was an offensive caricature, where as Garnacho is likening Onana to a Gorilla which has been a long standing historic theme of genuine and blatant hate fuelled racial abuse, particularly in football.

The Bernardo tweet featured a caricature from a confectionery product.
I was in Portugal a few weeks back and the sweets are still on sale - so it seems that nobody over there is offended enough to call for a ban on them.
Like Mendy, Onana is taking it as a piss take between two blokes.
If this is swept under the carpet - granted he doesn't need it - Bernardo should demand his fine back along with any potential performance bonus he missed out on.

When will they ever learn - Gorilla emojis - ban incoming

Has Andy Hincliffe said how outraged he is yet?
