[Albion] Veltman tackling Cucurella

[Motogull]

Another game, another instance of justice being served by The Velvetman.

Because he forced the move, threw his toys out of the pram, was disrespectful and is a self-centred egomaniac.

Didn't caciedo do the same ?

Also he’d only been here 12 months, Caicedo was here for longer IIRC

[Albion my Albion]

the booking was unnecessary given he’d nailed him with the tackle.

Am I correct that bookings in the FA Cup don't count in the Premier League matches?

 

[Van Cleef]

The squat in front of the keeper at corners is making me laugh, I’m trying to remember what yoga pose that’s called!

It should be called the "Dutch Squat".
But maybe I'm thinking of something else...

Red cards do I believe

Caicedo had been here a bit longer, so not to the same extent.

P.S. and I always got the impression Caicedo’s was more about the agent and Moises was being “done to” to a certain extent

If I remember correctly, Guardiola flashed his knickers and Cucu was desperate to go to City. Cucu was forcing through a move, then Chelsea came in with an offer that was difficult to refuse for a want-away left back.

I don’t think it was the move he wanted, but by that time he’d burnt a few bridges.

At least according to the hearsay.

 

[Happy Exile]

Remind me why we hate cucu more than caciedo or Sanchez. I'm guessing the rolling around , moaning etc ?

I think the manner of his leaving too

Marc Cucurella is spouting total nonsense & it's amazing | We Are Brighton

Since joining Chelsea, Marc Cucurella has begun spouting an Alan Partridge level of nonsense. Here are four of his best and most entertaining lines so far

Twice once very unsuccessfully

 

[Triggaaar]

I must confess I was a little annoyed at Veltman getting a booking for his verbals and pushing afterwards - the booking was unnecessary given he’d nailed him with the tackle.

That's not what happened, the ref went for the card as soon as Veltman made the tackle.


Foul at 26:48
Ref's whistle at 26:49
Ref's hand in pocket at 26:50

Don't know if deliberate, but he returned to Lancing (club video) after the initial interest from City became public, wearing a Puma track suit top rather than Nike.

Free to wear what they want if not a personal sponsor I guess, but jumped out as a little odd.

Yellow cards are specific to the competition they are received in. Red cards do go across all domestic competitions so a red card in the FA Cup would result in a PL suspension. Yellow and red cards in UEFA competitions are specific to their games and do not come across to domestic matches.

The FA Cup has it's ownyellow card suspensions rules. For clubs entering at the third round a player would miss the next round after 2 bookings. These are wiped at the completion of the Quarter Finals.

Watching that gif you realise how bloody good that cameraman was to get that iconic shot at that exact moment of full hair extension. He should get some recognition for that.

 

[Uh_huh_him]

If I remember correctly, Caicedo had a bit of a strop, when Arsenal made an offer in January, but he took a few days and came back stronger.
He reportedly cleared his locker out, once Chelsea's first offer had come in (and been rejected).

So was a bit of a twat, but the feeling was, he had been told that once our valuation had been met, he could leave.
It was Chelsea , who were trying to leverage that situation, rather than Caicedo.

Cucurella was throwing strops from the first rumour that City might be interested.

its the fact , he only wanted to play for Barcelona, then he dreamed of playing for man city --and finally he realised Chelsea was his true love
hes just a snake .........shame because he is a good player but by being slimey he annoys more than just Brighton fans

Thanks for sharing that, it was as I remembered it.
I wasn't sure whether the card was for trying to pull him to his feet, but the ref had his card out before that happened.

I don't hate Cucu more than Sanchez.
He's just easier to boo.
