It was a tactical foul and a yellow card, well within the laws of the game.

There is a difference between a tactical foul and making sure you hurt the oppo

Jota has a history of being a nasty piece of work

Other than that good game

“Disgusting player” ?

Took a foul for the team to stop a quick break for a correct yellow card and his first for the season

As opposed to Dawson who should have had 3/4 yellows out there - how he got away with the second yellow with the studs on Manes Achilles I’ll never know

Bowen a superb player - should be with England along with Antonio

Antonio for England ? Start taking your medication.
VVD hasn’t given him a sniff in 2 games.
Salah is just so overated,so many games he goes missing.
Agree Jota certainly in the Son mould.

You mean the Jamaican intl?

That being said. He’s never intl (england) quality. Seems to of had 8 good weeks each season for last 3 years, but wouldn’t have him over any other england intl, even if he hadn’t jumped nation years ago when he realised he’s chances were none existent.

I don't think FIFA would allow Antonio to play for both Jamaica and England.

Not sure whether that's a paradox or an oxymoron, but it's bloody funny.
If the foul was within the laws of the game, (which it patently wasn't), it would never have been deemed a foul and no yellow card would have been shown!

Bit of both???‍♂️??‍♂️???

If that doesnt win most stupid post of the year award i'll be disappointed?

What i meant to post was, it was only a foul and a yellow card. Nothing more.

Of course forget he finally got on the pitch for them last year

And will disagree about intl quality , he would be definitely someone who comes on and provides a direct physical presence on the pitch and goals - made it an uncomfortable afternoon for VVD and Konate and not many have done that
 
Antonio whilst not your standard international quality player would have been perfect for England to come off bench in Euros final ..

He is the type of player who relishes the rough and tough players. Would have caused the Italian centre backs a few problems.. wouldn't see him held back by his shirt collar.. he would brushed that off and beaten the defender for pace.

However he isn't technically amazing he is a bully

When I played at centre back I’d
Rather be against someone with
More skill than a unit like Antonio

International football is a step up from PL football and Antonio isn't international quality. Good honest limited pro imo.

Yet the more skillful CBs find him more of a handful than say burnleys old fashion centre halfs do
