reckless, takes out the player, no where near the ball.

seems pretty clear

The player just had the ball and had the ball when he started the tackle.

I am fine with it being called a red, I think that tackles like that should be punished more harshly. I just think based on the standards and similar calls on other tackles like that or tackles that are worse that the red was harsh.

If I saw that same tackle made on one of our players I wouldn't expect there to be a red, even if I think there should be.

If a ref doesn't give that a red, they've to be put on leave for a few weeks.

The outcome wasn't the worst but the intent was all there from Kimpembe, he was only trying to take out the player.

Again I agree it should be a red, just don't think that tackle or other tackles like it or worse often get a red.

I think refs are way too lenient in giving out cards, especially a red.
 
Moise Kean must feel like the luckiest bloke alive. Offered next to nothing for Everton, often looking like an even worse version of Balotelli, and then finds himself playing alongside the likes of Mbappe and Neymar somehow.
 

People will laugh at this but it just shows Liverpool pushing harder on the fine margins of performance that can win or lose games. Always thought AI will be the next nutrition, another way to gain a bit extra. Wonder what we are doing?
