VIDEO: ‘Shades of Bowyer v Dyer!’ – Idrissa Gueye amazingly sent off after clash with his own team-mate Michael Keane against Manchester United as fans moan the ‘game’s gone’ after referee’s decision

According to BBC Sport, Arsenal, and now Everton, have been shown the more red cards than any other side in Premier League history at 110. Moreover, Gueye became the first player to be red carded in the division for fighting with a team-mate since Stoke City duo Ricardo Fuller and Andy Griffin in December 2008.

Incidentally, the laws around ‘violent conduct’ state: ‘Sending off offence – Striking an opponent or any other person on the head or face with their hand or arm, unless the force used was negligible.”

And according to Neville, it could have easily been avoided if the correct card was dished out. 

“Was it negligible? That’s the question. I think it was negligible. I don’t think there was much in that at all,” he said. “They were not fighting, it wasn’t a scrap. It could have been dealt with by a yellow. I don’t think it needed to be a red. I’m now trying to imagine what Gueye and Keane say when they get to the dressing room. How is that one going to go?”
