Berardi - You’ve seen them given
Quite a good piece on the Warrior’s Red Card offences

Love the man to bits but is his reputation becoming a liability or is it Leeds?

Re: Berardi - You’ve seen them given
It wasn't a penalty or a red card however because Berardi is not a natural CB he lost the flight of the ball & got himself in a tight awkward position as he didn't deal with the ball immediately & effectively. Same almost happened with Ayling in the second-half. White & Cooper would probably have dealt with both those situations plus Wall's 2nd goal more efficiently

I was just as the article points out saying perhaps Berardi’s reputation is somewhat unfounded and if he played for another club he wouldn’t even have one maybe

Re: Berardi - You’ve seen them given
Well what a very poor piece of officiating, Millwall v Leeds United. Leeds will win their appeal against a red card. It was not a penalty kick, a clear act of simulation. Then to say it was denying an obvious goalscoring opportunity is just stupid. I would sit this ref on his hands for a month.

Re: Berardi - You’ve seen them given
Apparently not innocent Hector, they have overturned the red card due to Kalvin covering so he wasn’t last man but they are not going after Bradshaw as they feel it was too close to call it simulation and Berardi “could” have touched him Yea in the tunnel on the way into the pitch
Another EFL stitch up £200k for not breaking any rules and £10k for been a bunch of racists but then I’m been paranoid

Re: Berardi - You’ve seen them given
No surprise there sadly, the EFL would never ban a player for diving against Leeds, just like Watkins last season.
At least Berardi winning his appeal means Phillips won't be at CB.

Re: Berardi - You’ve seen them given
So are they saying it should have been a yellow?
If they arent going after Bradshaw for diving they must think there was sufficient contact to go down?
If there was i want all our players to fall down in the area whenever an opponents hand brushes them.

Re: Berardi - You’ve seen them given
Bamford did that and got a 2 match ban for it.
Re: Berardi - You’ve seen them given
Off the ball though if i remember correctly.
The difficulty with these cases is the way the players were running a little clip can send a player flying. Though in this case at the very least it seems that their striker hauled himself to the ground very easily (and at worst completely dived). Guess the efl thought it too close to call. Bamfords was a bit different as it was off the ball and a bit easier to judge I think. Still a bit harsh though in my opinion.

Please no. That was one of the reasons we were so pants in the first 14 minutes.

Re: Berardi - You’ve seen them given
Great news with the Berra red card being overturned
It's going to be interesting what that team vs Birmingham will be especially if Forshaw is back too.
Quite possible that one of Ayling or Dallas gets dropped to the bench to move Forshaw back into the midfield.
I'm expecting a 3 at the back system vs Birmingham with them usually playing two big strikers in a 4-4-2 shape.
GK Casilla
CB White
CB Phillips
CB ? (either Berardi or Ayling)
RWB ? (either Dallas or Ayling)
CDM ? (either Forshaw or Dallas)
LWB Alioski
CAM Klich
RW Hernandez (assuming he is back if not Costa)
CF Bamford
LW Harrison
Quite difficult to say what we are going to do as I think it's between Ayling, Dallas, Berardi and Forshaw 3 of those players will start imo and 1 will drop to the bench it's quite possible any of those 4 will be dropped out. Personally I think it will be Forshaw (on the basis that he might not be fully match fit)
So would expect a bench like this: Meslier, Douglas, Forshaw, Shackleton, Roberts, Costa, Nketiah

Re: Berardi - You’ve seen them given
Berardi’s deal at Elland Road ends next summer and as yet no talks about an extension have taken place.
Will this season be a last hurrah for the Swiss firebrand?

Re: Berardi - You’ve seen them given
As much as I like Berra's total commitment to the cause he is a loose cannon who cannot seem to grasp the fact that any rash challenges are running the risk of red cards although the last 2 against Scumwall & Derby were very unfortunate due to some crap refereeing. He's not a fantastic footballer but he is very solid and wears his heart on his sleeve , good luck to him wherever he goes to next if his contract isn't renewed.

Re: Berardi - You’ve seen them given
personally I'd be very surprised if we changed formation to three at the back - it's arguably even more defensive and we're not scoring enough goals currently. Also if Harrison and costa are playing as out and out wingers you don't get much benefit from having wing full backs. Bielsa just doesn't do big changes like this...Oscar wrote: ↑Tue Oct 08, 2019 8:30 pm Great news with the Berra red card being overturned

I think it will be a similar team as against Millwall with perhaps a bit of juggling around to fit forshaw in at centre mid and dallas at rb (ayling going cb or bench?).

Re: Berardi - You’ve seen them given
Interesting, with Cooper out and Ayling as VC this gives MB the Dilemma of dropping his current captain. Ayling for Berardi I'd guess....Dallas at RB
