Declan Rice red card REACTION! - ‘ABSOLUTE DISASTER!’ | Arsenal vs. Brighton | ESPN FC

yanish we're going to get straight into it Declan Rice's second booking in the 49th minute nobody can ju unjustify the first one that was definitely a yellow but the second yellow was it the right decision it's an absolute disaster I hate it I mean you know it was a decent game up until that point uh obviously Arsenal one of the favorites to win the Premier League look I mean it it's it's a nitpicking at the highest order um I I don't even know how to explain it because it's an absolute disaster for the premier league for everybody that loves the game there's absolutely nothing wrong with that game barely touching the ball in fact I think Joe Elman uh veltman uh fouled fouled him as well so you know I look at that game and I I think we were cheated I mean we we were absolutely cheated in this game yeah I have to completely agree here as the graphic was showing there by the Premier League's match centers uh report there saying that the referee issued a second yellow card to DEC for delaying the restart if everybody just watches this highlight once again uh obviously there's a you know a tumultous situation where both players get into it but the ball is actually gracing the back heel of Declan rice and it just happens to meet his toe he didn't kick it away it just felt off so obviously there needs to be context here I'm With You Dean Rice's second jell was ridiculous and that was the change of everything because at the beginning yanish uh Kai Howards wow uh three goal contributions already in the league uh a goal here today uh before we get more into the second half and obviously what Arsenal had to do with 10 men what have you made of Kai H so far no he's been he's been absolutely incredible right I mean we we've looked at him in so many different ways in his time at Chelsea and and and Arsenal and you know uh you know I'm trying to find a place for him in terms of his position and how good he is or he isn't he's been absolutely outstanding he's growing into his role uh I think he's one of the best out there uh you know I don't look at him as a a number nine truly but you know in his time at Leverkusen and and so far at Arsenal and Chelsea I think he's been absolutely amazing look this isn't a good result for Arsenal that's for sure right playing at home against Brighton team that continues to reemerge and you know what incredible story right because we don't want to take anything away from Brighton uh uh you know the top of the table uh you know before this game uh with Arsenal and they're you know they're there as well right now so uh I look at Kai HS and I'm thinking to myself what a player possibility of playing just about any position so far so so good uh he's growing he you know I don't want to say he's growing on me because I always respected him as a player but uh I think when it's all said and done he's a true number nine for Arsenal and he's going to continue to to deliver that to me is where the laws of the gamees are criminal right we're gonna sit here I've been on Twitter you know I I've put it out there you know is this a second yellow card and of course as you know on social media people would push back he should have known better this or that this is absolutely criminal there there is nothing that he should have known it's a terrible terrible yellow card which made the game worse for us for all the viewers uh uh I don't know how you know I mean you know these two points obviously when it's all said and done at the end of the season I don't know where they go but to me it's absolutely criminal if it wasn't for the yellow card Arsenal would have won this game not to take anything away from Brighton because they were superb in a way it's a difficult place as we all know blah blah blah but listen Arsenal would have won that game with 11 men and to me the law of the game failed us failed all of us as viewers of the game if you're an Arsenal fan or not it was an absolutely terrible terrible decision [Music]
