Look at how slow the Stoke player went over,

It wasn't that bad. He got the ball but wrapped his legs around the player's ankles. Although he went running at him with speed he slowed down as he got the ball. The Stoke player made the most of that. He went down very slowly and then rolled around a bit.

Not saying it wasn't a foul. It was. Scissor tackle from behind is a straight red, no questions but let's calm down, it wasn't as dangerous as the froth of the Barclay are making out.
