rooney didn't play or even get named to the bench. did i miss an injury?
Costa should have gotten a 2nd yellow card. The ref ruined the game. The league needs to crack down on Costa: short leash, little or zero tolerance. Sick of this BS.
I'm no fan of Costa, but claiming the ref ruined the game is just wrong. Continued retaliation right in front of the ref is what got Gabriel sent off. It wasn't even a second yellow - the ref gave him a straight red. Refs naturally don't see everything, but when you're stupid and do something like he did when the ref is standing right next to you, you're gonna get sent off.
I don't have a problem w/the red card on Gabriel. I have a problem w/Costa.
So - the ref ruined the game by not giving a second yellow to Costa? Warranted or not, the failure to give a second yellow hardly ruins the entire game. Is Costa a whiner and an instigator? Yes. Would I want him on my team? No. But, he's only one of 22 players on the pitch.

south koreans haven't really been that impressive in the premier league, especially at scoring. Ji-Sung Park is probably the most successful with 19 goals in 133 appearances for man-u. curious to see if Son can break that trend.
The other thing is Koscielny flopped when Diego got in his face. Diego barely touched him. If Koscielny doesn't flop, Gabriel doesn't come over and none of this takes place. And let's be honest, Arsenal looked like they quit once the red card was giving. They didn't even try to chase the game.
Son had 2 goals in the European match on Thursday and the winner today vs Palace. He's quickly becoming a fan favorite.
I can see why. Great run on the goal. Seems like a dynamic player. I was pretty skeptical too, but Son is proving me wrong thus far.

I realize this is the Premier League thread, but Lewandowski just scored 5 goals in 9 minutes vs. Woflsburg. And #5 was a killer volley. Insane!!
