    On ITV, they have a shrill commentator who could quite easily be on MCFCTV.

    Joachim Andersen is a dirty football player. Pushing with 2 hands off the ball is a foul, and I think a yellow card. Multiple offenses. He should have been thrown out. What a slimy piece of sh*t.

    True - but Nunez was way way way too easily riled up in this game. He was trying too hard to score and then let his frustrations boil over.

    Suarez:

    "In an interview with Telemundo (Channel 12), the Gunslinger said that "the moment that Darwin lives at the football level is spectacular, it is admirable. With the age he is, already at Liverpool, it is to applaud him. He has to enjoy this stage, keep giving him, keep learning from what happened to him the other day."

    Suarez said he spoke with him "because he is just starting and (to) be aware that from now on they are going to look for him twice or three times more. And more as it is in England, a boludo tells you that he was wrong and that he had a bad time, but falling and getting back up was making me stronger. You don't give them more chances, it's going to be worse.""

    The current Nacional striker added that "Darwin is someone who listens a lot. He is very intelligent in that sense and I think he is going to try to turn this situation around, which is nothing serious, we have all been wrong, we have all been kicked out; what happens is that he just arrived and in England, at the minimum, they already do everything big."

    On Darwin Nunez's red card against Crystal Palace: "Bobby [Firmino] has trained as normal and is ready.

    "Of course we spoke to Darwin and he was very disappointed with himself. The things that the centre-half [Joachim Andersen] did, he's not the only player in the world doing these kinds of things.

    "We've never had a situation like this before while I've been here as far as I know, so I'm not an expert in these talks. But it was obvious that he knew. He apologised. We all make mistakes."

    I don't think he was frustrated about not scoring. He was frustrated with a defender who constantly fouled him, on and off the ball, and nothing was called by the referee. Of course, Nunez was stupid to respond to the fouling with headbutts. He needs to find another tactic.

    I've had this happen to me. At first, I was enraged, but then I got smart. When a defender would push me, I pulled them. You don't have to pull very hard. Once they lost their balance they fell down and I ran past them. When a defender put his hands on my shoulder, I'd grab his pinky and snap it back quickly. I considered my actions a way to help the defender become a better person.

    I tend to agree. And being new, things got to him in a way he hadn't experienced before.

    I still think (as I said to some rise of initial controversy in the game-thread) that had he been facing Anderson and Anderson acted with the same push, and Nunez might have squared up to him with just the same minimal head to face movement; it likely wouldn't have occurred to Anderson's ego to fall over, but to fake face-butt back. And there wouldn't have been any sending off.

    it was unfortunate for him in his home debut to get into that, but fairly understandable.

    They have a throw in coach, why not a football self defense coach. Love the pinky snap move.
