Jose Mourinho says 'retaliation now allowed' after Gabriel decision

Thoughts?

Great, maybe they’ll now rescind Beckham’s red card against Argentina in '98 World Cup and England will go on to win it…

I am surprised they rescinded Gabriel’s card - he kicked out which is a red card full whatever the provocation. Costa decision is correct as well.

I can sorta understand where Jose is coming from, although I can’t understand why he is getting pissy - Costa is an animal and when they signed him they must have factored into the equation that he would spend a chunk of each season suspended. Maybe he is angry because Costa was caught.

Wants to distract attention, away from Costa and Eva. Not been the best week for Jose.

Did they recscind the red or did they rescind one of the yellows??

Whatever Costa has really fucked me over as I have him in my Premier Leagus Fantasy team and I have a plethora of injured midfielders. Oh well

Mourinho is hardly the best judge…after all he still thinks Costa did nothing wrong. By that token I only listen to what he has to say if I want a laugh…

I think he’s gutted because he now realises that Costa is going to be about half as effective.

Shame, that :slight_smile:

I was surprised that the Arsenal card was changed - do they consider that he only committed the offence after Costa should have been sent off?? Slightly odd.

I’d like to hear less of Jose spouting drivel and a bit more from the ref explaining his thought process as he watched Costa staggering around like a drunk swinging punches at anything in a red and white shirt.

Any news on his daughter’s booblies?
