Why does Fernandiho get away with bookable offends?

Post by bamenda boy »

Every game I watch this got play, he gets away with a yellow or red card. Na only me notice this?

Very intelligent interrupter. Shades of Ricardo Carvalho, an expert at the professional foul.

He is an a**hole. I'll never forgive him for the 2014 WC games against Chile and Colombia where he fouled anyone and everyone in sight and didn't get even get a yellow card. Dude committed more fouls than passes and got away with it because Brazil was at home :boo:

He was on the pitch for the 7-1 game and was so bad he was subbed at the half :lol:

OMG! You don't get it!
You view yourself as a white English man. :shock:

Well, I hope you are one, because if you are not, then, you need serious help.

Mark Van Bommel was the world champ extraordinaire in the art of cynical tactical fouling without being red carded. Van Bommel should have been behind bars (let alone red carded) for some of his GBH asssaults on the pitch.

As much as I feel like konking tfco on the head for his blind support of Jose, I must however say here that it appears you completely missed the point he was making.

Let me try to use my own little interpretation. Foreigners are usually targeted, they are always at the receiving end of negative reporting, their mistakes and failing are exaggerated and blown out of proportion.

Now read carefully this is the key part... Check and Fernadinho though foreigners have managed to escape same scrutiny even though they fall into the group. I believe that was all Tfco was trying to say... :D

Dont thank me, that is what buddies are for.

Thanks, but I got that part.

The biggest *kindperson* when it came to that, would commit full on assault from kickoff to only receive a booking in the 60th.

It’s called In-game Intelligence. Marginal gains brethren. Rewatch the great Evander Holyfield’s bouts and count the number of unseen headbutts, each and every blow tenderising the meat. ‘Vander was a master of the intended “unintentional” clash of heads, those wanting to fight on the inside never stood a chance. Cheers to the Van Bommels and Holyfields, masters of the fine art. Fernandinho is getting there.

Psst, does Fellani’s elbow fit the narrative now that he’s no longer a Mancunian b*stard?

Fellaini was just a big brute who throws his size clumsily around.

De Jong.... It was Fernadinho who took his place at City, tells you how good that Favela rat is.... I call him the Favela rat because he behaves like one on the field... A damn good player.

De Jong aka Field Marshall, one of the best to ever do it. Brought back the reducer and issued a catalogue worthy of any Best of...archives. One of the true greats.

Very true. Was quietly doing all the dirty job while Yaya was doing the "glamorous" one. Not a knock on Yaya though.
