Is it about time players got booked for simulation?

Hasn't that happened for about twenty years? And happened in our match two days ago?

Watched the Chelsea Benfica game in a pub in the smoke. Full of the usual self entitled Chelsea tossers moaning. I thought Barrenechea was decent.

Harry Kane up to 18th all-time top scorer for Bayern after two and a bit seasons.

Will comfortably be in the top 15 by Christmas. Thoroughly impressive stuff.

spurs have not been good tonight. but it’s the mark of a great side that *even* when you don’t play well, you can still grind out a point against a tiny Narnian fishing village

So did I. Nothing spectacular but solid and good positioning

I heard them singing about Fernandez   , along the lines of ' Enzo Fernández he left you cos you are shit ' no  because you gave them £107 million you twats

Shouldn't have been booked. He didn't simulate, he just fell over Martínez.

He simulated falling over Martinez

He was clearly collapsing before the Martinez touch.

Come on, he's young, ace and we'll buy him next summer.

He crashed into the goalie that wants to leave us, at speed. He's no cheat.
