Dont think what he did warranted a red card
Knee jerking ? What annoys me about him isn't his poor form - it's his poor work ethics. And besides it's not a case of a 4-5 match poor run - it's a case of 4-5 months bad run.
You can't even make your point to the ref anymore.. Both legs were bleeding but no, that's not enough
You are either with Di Maria or get the feck out..

He is discontinuous and full of fears as well
Seeing it again it really didn't look that bad, he grabs his shirt to hold him up and carry on talking to him. Silly thing to do but hardly worth an immediate yellow. Oliver had it in for him all night, he went down incredibly easily but it was no different to the way Sanchez had been buying free kicks from him all night. A slight hand on the shoulder, a grab of the wrist. One is a free kick the other is a yellow card for diving apparently.
Really timid player
We really aren't though. Which is sad enough. God I miss Nani
Say goodbye to any semblance of creativity then. Even though more than half the things he tries don't come off, there's at least two or three chances he creates every game. As he did in this one and another moment where fellaini chests it down in the box but overhits the pass to Young.
There are a few who just aren't cut out to give calm analysises after a high octane match.
Had he ever played as RW before?
It was a dive. And he put his hands on the ref. Like it or not, you can't do that in football. Complete and utter red card. Moron.
Not this again
. He should play left back, that's his best position. It's never his fault.Yes. A lot.
He was booked for the dive.
Maybe he got reprimanded for letting Hart off and told to start handing out punishments in the future.
He hasn't been bad for 4-5 months. As for poor work ethic, he generally keeps making runs all game and we are relying on him being our main offensive outlet so he probably gets a bit of slack when it comes to defending.
Now I'm not at all suggesting that he has been great or that he has lived up to expectations but when you see people posting some of the drivel in this thread then I feel I should defend him.
I am asking a bloody question just answer itNot this again
He has always been a diver, was known for it in Spain. Big blow to our top four hopes losing him for a few games now, he is hit and miss but we don't really have anyone else to come into the side who can add the pace we desperately need.
Christ, get a grip.
Is that why he was sent off? I'm not sure.
I didn't see during match but it is being reported that he got 2nd yellow there not straight red.
Is that sarcasm?
Only has himself to blame. Such a shame as he played well in the first half.
He was booked for the dive but it's unclear as to whether he then got a yellow or a straight red for grabbing Oliver. Cameras didn't seem to catch it.
I'm so massively disappointed in him. Can't remember the last time I was so underwhelmed by a new signing. Falcao's at least only on loan here.
He was definitely booked for the dive. I don't know if Oliver gave him a second yellow or a straight red for the push though.
It was a second yellow not a straight red. Stupid of him, but he was good before that.
He's been poor but there are clear signs of quality, just needs to change his attitude a bit. He clearly has the natural ability to cut it here so let's be patient with him. Also fans need to stop thinking about the 60million quid, he was never worth that amount of money and I said as much at the time. He'll come good lads, let's be patient a bit.
With all the attention on the red card it's easy to forget he was also totally at fault for their first goal. Great cross for the equalizer but he's turning into more of a burden than a genuine match winner for us.
Why does he dive so much? Such a dislikable guy. Hated him at Madrid but warmed around to him when he first arrived but he's been useless in recent weeks.
Yep.
I'll be calmer tomorrow but tonight - he can go to PSG in the summer.
He was already on a yellow when he dived but the ref only got the card out after he grabbed him. Was all a bit confusing.
Hit and miss, looks frustrated with his form and started going down too easily even though he was fouled when he was booked for diving.
Ref is a prissy little bitch, he barely touched him
The commentators had no idea what was going on which made it all a bit confusing, but I think it was Herrera who had got booked for the earlier challenge, not Di Maria. So the yellow the ref showed him for the dive was his first.
He wasn't, Herrera got the yellow in the first half not Di Maria but the two clowns on BBC kept getting mixed up.
Didn't he get a booking for the dive and then a second one for grabbing the ref?
He wasn't on a yellow. Herrera was. He was shown the yellow before he grabbed Oliver. What were you watching?
Unfortunately, it's not easy to forget at all.
