A domestic Casemiro if you will.

The anti-Xhaka almost if you will really indulge me*.


*please don’t give me stats on how many of GX’s reds have been straight as opposed to yellow x 2

People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones (or pick Stones as it turns out)

The tackle that injured Silva (a player who commits an astonishing amount of fouls but never seems to get a card) was fairly innocuous (and not as bad as Kompany's on Mesut).

Can't argue with the goal though - very poor decision

Quite, Kompany should have had a 2nd yellow in extra time as well
