I'm not sure he can. I think he just has to give a yellow now. They're making a rod for their own back with the new reactive rules they bring in every season.
They really need to leave the game alone. Nobody understands the rules anymore.

I still hear “Joe Linton” when he’s mentioned and then remember he’s a Brazilian. The most English sounding Brazilian. Even more than Fred.
Almost, remember Bernard?

After three games you’d like to think Liverpools new midfield could actually Influence a game

That makes no sense. The criteria for a yellow card doesn’t increase by count.

It was a yellow card whether he was on a booking or not. The ref simply bottled it big time.
Yeah totally agree. What's the point of the yellow for kicking the ball away in this instance?

Second yellow is an easy one to give if he hadn't already been booked. Refs shouldn't have brought in that rule if they're not going to have the balls to send people off in those circumstances.

It's always going to be a soft sending off, but that's the rule now.
