The ref have a fantastic view to Evans coming in with straight legs... It is fantastic that he let him play on.
Is Shelvey The Messiah ?

It's the refs angle that got him sent off combined with a slight lunge downwards.
From the refs angle he can see Evans looking at the ball whilst he went in, he can then see the back of shelvey lunging towards the ball.
That was also the first camera angle used. I think it's fair to say he had advice in his ear based upon that camera angle.
Yes Evans tackle was also reckless, but without the benefit of a replay in slow motion shelves looks the red card instantly whilst Evans doesn't.

Yep, enjoyed that. Loved the way he pointed at Ferguson so he knew who he was calling a cunt.
I can't see us appealing, they might point to the earlier challenge where he got away with a yellow. That said, if that was a yellow and then he got a yellow for the Evans challenge, then it's only one match. I think we'll just take it on the chin, we know full well that the FA would just stick to their guns and probably extend the ban to four games.
If he pulled out of that tackle I bet some would be calling him a shithouse coward.
No doubt it was reckless but he couldn't pull out of it either.
Ferdinand and Giggs played a huge part in getting the kid sent off.
Respect campaign me bollix,when Suarez went to Halsey over Van Persie's tackle on Suso he was told to get lost straight away.

If he had of stayed down and screamed it would have been yellows for both. No red
Any gifs of Jonjo speaking to Ferdinand & Ferguson ?
He lives in a bit of a fantasy land, young Jonjo. Like a kitten, he's easily distracted (I've never seen anyone else give post-match interviews stopping so often because he's noticed someone in the background) and I fear he needs to be told several times before anything plops into that gelatinous brain of his. But he's one of the most fascinating young players in the country - raw and volatile but genuinely imaginative, inventive, passionate and capable of inspired moments. And if he's going to err it may as well be against that maroon-hootered poltroon.
I'm warming to him every passing minute. People have said he was lazy but I've seen him cover some amount of ground this season against City Utd and young boys.
I realy gem and I think him and Allen will be our backbone for a long time injuries permitting.

"You're a cunt!". Go 'ed Jonjo
We were level when he got sent off and a CM can never pull out of that tackle.
Didn't say a CM should pull out of a tackle, but there are ways to tackle that don't require you to go in as he and Evans did. To be fair to him I didn't think it was a sending off and if it was they both should have gone.
I probably would be more forgiving it he was a match winner, but he isn't currently and may never be. Where we are now we need people who we can rely upon and we can't have him in the team when he is liable to get sent off every game, which with the way he tackles is a distinct possibility.
Fuck me it is hard enough for us to score with 11 players let alone 10.
Our system does fall to pieces with 10 men alright.
I think Shelvey will become one of the players you cut slack to in the future.

It didn't yesterday.
We were the better team for the final fifty minutes with ten men
