Luke O'Nien

It was a poor and deliberate tackle that VAR should have had a closer look at. I think Gvardiol got away with a second yellow on Le Fee too.

None of that has any impact on the discussion about O’Nien’s red.
It highlights the inconsistency and also how quick people are to jump on 09.

If one of the new lads made that challenge id expect numerous threads mentioning the inconsistency
 

We spent big to stay up…we knew our old players couldn’t cut it. Hume & Ballard apart. 09 can’t. Not in Prem. Can’t let our hearts rule, he’s been hit & miss even in league 1 let’s be honest. When we asked him to “step up” today he “fucked up” instead, time to go. Love him as much as anyone, but no excuse today to even risk that at 3-0 down, unprofessional
 
Come AFCON we’re relying on likes of his championship ability 😩. Dropping down table for sure in January. Sorry am just being realistic.
Once AFCON done, get the AFCON players back with depth in squad, then on we will fight harder to stay up and secure the points needed 👍🤞

Big push for Europe after Afcon imo, seen nothing this season that has my ring twitching, I think we will have a strong end to the season :cool:

You get some stick for saying that about 09
 
Let the manager and team down as was an option for when the squad is lightened by AFCON. If there's any consolation I'd rather he was sent off today than against the mags next week when its critical to have 11 players on the pitch for 90 the full game.
 
If he was just told to "get out there and get some minutes" then thats definitely bad coaching
Well he was hardly given any specific instructions when you're 3 nil down, at City with only 5 minutes to go. What the hell was he expecting him to achieve? Obviously his appearance was merely to get some game time.
 
Idiotic typical O’Nien brain fart and shows why some of us say he simply isn’t good enough for this level, so let’s stop the sentimental shite and playing him.
