Dunno about you but I got major bollockings for the stupid shit I did at 20.
He let us down. He needs to be made aware of that and our frustrations.

He let us down. He needs to be made aware of that and our frustrations.
For me the best approach is to get him back playing well as quickly as possible.
At this stage, we will be cutting off our bollocks by dropping him. The team suffered last night, and they will deal with it behind the scenes. No need for the public execution.
We have enough players out already
It's two seasons in a row he's done something that's cost us. Getting banned last year and then last night. It's like a naughty kid, you love them, but they aren't going out to play with their mates for a week.
Hopefully behind the scenes he's got a dressing down. If he did something like that, say, in the F.A. Cup final v. Woolwich/Chelsea (which are even more heated) I imagine some wouldn't be so kind.
I trust Poch, as a combative player himself, will know how to handle it.
Spot on.
Horrible potential career ending tackle aside, he let us down. We had 10 guys out there who tried to fight and 1 stupid kid let us down.
Like I said, he'll learn from it. He needs to.
Yeah he might of cost us who really knows for sure, but what has he won us.... many games where his goals or assists have earned Is 3 points, he is young he will learn, let's get behind him, he fucking spurs it's as simple as that!
Poch will handle this behind the scenes, just because he doesn't say in public doesn't mean he ain't gonna get a bollocking.... plus I'm sure the rest of the team are pretty fucked of with him.....
Let's just move on
I am pretty sure he already knows.
Him knowing and him being told are two different things.
So suddenly now our back up is so good we can drop Alli.
Move Eriksen central, play Son. Not a major upheaval. Sonny does seem half the player when he starts, mind.
It is a major upheaval though, as Dele is a key player in our set up.
If he got a serious injury last night, would everyone be "ahh fuck it, just mix it up a bit"....?!?
Just Europe.
So he basically goes potentially 7 months without punishment for attempting to break a leg.
No its not irrelevent because it proves that we need him, and that he can do it again in future games.
What is this?!
The fucking Gent Player Sympathy Foundation?
The only ones that gain from dropping Alli next game is Stoke
He was punished. He was sent off
Poch should take him back to Wembley and rub his nose in the turf at the spot where he was sent off, like a puppy. The boy has to be trained properly.
calm down, it is irrelevant cos he got sent off!
what the fuck has scoring one of the greatest goals ive seen (at palace) got to do with last night?
and i've never said to drop him, which would be moronic, but you carry on
hopefully someone gave him both barrels in the changing room last night.
Its ludicrous.....suddenly we dont need him for the run in. The poor Gent player who played on after faking twice that someone had broken his fake already" injured" knee.
If we sold him, same people would want Poch shot, but now he´s just a petulant luxury that can be dropped
Basically, this.
One red card in his whole career. Off the top of my head - Gerrard, Beckham and Zidane all made similar stupid tackles are they turned out just fine.
