I don't think it was a red, but definite yellow. Pedro is now developing a reputation, so won't be surprised if one comes his way sometime this season. Fab (and Bobby Z) need to have a word with him to tone it down a bit
Pedro, or Mr.Floppy as I now call him, has got immense talent. He is, as you describe, getting a reputation for falling down at the merest touch. I remember on one occasion in the second half he went down (again) in the penalty area hoping for a foul which was not given. There were two Albion players to his right who could have taken advantage had he passed the ball instead of doing the theatricals. I sincerely hope Fab has words with him about this and get back to playing football rather than acting like twattish prima donna.

I'll be happy with him as he is thanks,... until he gets a move, then he needs to stop.

Don’t know what some seem to think Pedro should have done? He’s running full pelt I don’t know where else he can go?

A collision was inevitable, but he didn't have to jump high before impact. He should have known that he wasn't going to get there first before he got to the penalty spot, and he could then have tried to slow a fraction with his last stride.
