Match Thread Bournemouth vs Everton

Zouma on and 5 at the back I say. Like to see Dowell on for Walcott.

 

[ProZ]

Can’t believe we have lost him for 3 games tragic

 

[Norwegian Cow]

would be more fair if the one who starts the headlock gets sent off

 

[peteblue]

Incredibly soft, but by the book it’s probably a red. Very dumb by Richy.

The real problem is Seamus though. His touch and control have been absolute shoot. He’s wasted 5-6 great opportunities on his own. What the hell is wrong with him.

Probably whinging about the captains armband.

Game over.

Never a red, it’ll be rescinded on Monday

No chance, he moved his head towards the other player. Red all day long. Soft and stupid but a definite red he got sucked into.

 

[Carl O'Ancelotti]

It may be the letter of the law but to give a red for something like that with no punishment for the player who provoked it is an absolute joke.

 

[Osamabindiesel]

Game over.

Title lost

 

[polish]

Who's this referee? Never heard of him.

Isn't that Probert?

 

[TheBigIguana]

I wonder what that little bell Smith actually said to Richarlison to make him spin around so aggressively?

Smacks of Holgate all over again....

He went up and got in his face regardless of what he said I don't really blame Richie for trying to get him off of him

 

[chrissyjack]

95th minute winner . OG by Smith would be lovely

 

[Toffee-nerd]

He lives off one good game against Man City imo.

Don't really understand this at all. Every one of our players was dog dirt last season, bar Pickford. Walcott, Coleman and Baines have been far worse than Davies today but hey I guess it suits the let's bash another young everton player agenda.

 

[BlueToff]

Sadly in this day and age that’s a red. He’s been had off there, as soft and pathetic as the rules are. Although I’m not sure why Smith can also make contact with his head and not even get booked.

Is it cheating from Smith? Possibly. It is the sort of snide we could do with? Possibly.

If it's a red, Smith also should be given a red. He moves his head towards Richarlison as well.

Richarlison should not be lured in there, but it's never a red.

Overall we've been poor, though.

Committed the crime of playing well for a non top 6 team. Refs soon put and end to that.

 

[toffeejack]

Exactly, its absurd. No reasonable human can claim that what Smith does is not even so much as a foul, and yet what Richarlison does is a red card, when the only difference is a soft 1 inch movement that didnt even bother Smith a bit. Especially considering Smith started the whole encounter and instigated.

Yet he gets nothing, the rat.

I want to know what it's given as. Like under what law is it given? Unsporting conduct?
