Cooper gets red card for high tackle v Jesus.
Jesus in in squads for next Man City games.
Fernandinho get yellow card for cynical obstruction v Raphinha
Raphinha out injured since.
I personaly felt Cooper card was correct, however impact on player was minimal as he's in squad for very next next.
Fernandinho tackle was completely cynical, no attempt to win ball, victim of that tackle out for the next 2 games at least.
I believe the system needs to look more at the impact of the action being assessed, perhaps even retrospectively.
You can say the laws of the game say this that or whatever about retrospective punishments, but if rules dont work, then change them. I'd like to see a system that prevents the cynical side of football, the cynical fouls, the "professional fouls" if you like, the ones that leave players out injured because it was a genuinely bad tackle.
I'd like to see more reactions from etc Burnley player who didn't make a meal about being pushed in etc face.
Instead of making a token gesture about social media abuse by not posting for 3 days I'd like to see football clean up it's act in house.
Cooper v Fernandinho

They could have a panel so when a player is fouled and injury see's them out of action for no matter how long, they could look at video evidence to see how it happened and what was done about it!..
And if the board set up think a foul wasn't dealt with correctly they should have the power to impose a stiffer penalty!..
The same as if a player dies and then stands up again, they should be punished because its obvious they're trying to get the other player booked which happens to often, even we have a few that are great at that!..
Players these days seem to have fall over programmed into them!..

There is of course a big assumption that Raphinha is not playing currently because of the Fernandinho tackle. This may not actually be the reason. He’s been playing with strapping on his thigh in previous games so we can’t really debate this without knowing the full facts.

We can absolutely debate the concept.

Fernandinho: dirtiest player in the Prem.
Cynical about sums his game up.

Yeah I agree. I'm not a fan if cynical tackles like the Raphinha one. I appreciate some tackles injure players, that's part of the game, its a semi contact sport, but the Fernandinho on Raphina was pretty much a footballing assault. Was blatantly trying to stop/injure with no regard for the ball. Sin bins should probably be introduced for blatant professional fouls. Yellows just aren't enough whereas reds are a bit harsh.

Germany, I think if a player dies and stands up again, they should be applauded
