It's football, it's emotional, he's a character. He makes the game better. He's a lead guitarist amongst a peer group of bass players and drummers.The yellow card in normal play was a fucking terrible decision as well, I'm utterly convinced the ref got confused by how many times Emi was stood in open play with the ball at his feet waiting to be closed down and had it in his head that he'd been time wasting so was looking for the first possible chance to book him. I don't think he'd taken any longer ofver that goal kick than any other in the game.Thats exactly how I saw it. He even told Martinez that he had already done it four times by holding up his fingers. I don't think we had even had four goal kicks by that point.The referee got confused by a mixture of the crowd boo'ing due to their own bitterness & his own fucking stupidity to make one of the most ridiculous yellow card decisions in the history of the game. And then followed it up with the rest of his games idiotic decisions, along with the second booking for having the audacity to celebrate his save & telling fans to stop throwing physical shit at him.

Before the Ajax game (one of the other games must have gone to penalties?) I asked who you'd have take the penalties for us.Don't think anyone had Cash, except Drummond, who clearly wasn't expecting any saves.
I had Digne in my list of preferred pen takers.

If we win this competition we qualify automatically for the Europa League. If we finish 4th and qualify for the CL, who would then take that Europa spot?
