Can the club appeal against Keanes red card, even getting it reduced to one or two match suspension I’d something. There was no nasty intent.
As regards Grealish the ref got it all spot on. Players like him need to set the example on the pitch. Pity the ref hasn’t got the power to send him back to city. His better playing days are behind him and I don’t expect him to still be an Everton player next season. Sent off and a boozy night out around Christmas, that’s enough.
So assume McNeil will be left wing, Dibling right wing, Patterson right back with O’Brien and Tarks centre backs for next matches.
Keep Armstrong in the team he is needed.
Barnes from Newcastle would be good replacement got Grealish but assume not available and out of financial reach. Harry Wilson the same on the right.
{Ed025's Note - i hope we dont appeal Keane,s card Brian, pulling someones hair belongs in a 5 year olds girls playground...not on a football pitch, these players need to realize that they are professionals and should behave so, fine him 2 weeks wages and get Idrissa to give him another belt for being a gobshite..

Send Grealish back? We really have lost the ability to apply any logic or reason to the situation haven’t we? One of our players of the season, wearing his heart on his sleeve, went too far yesterday and let himself down. He’ll want to come back strong.
{Ed025's Note - if the deal is right i would love to keep him JB, his signing has really lifted the profile of the club mate..

Jack lost his head, but only because he was one of the few players on the pitch who was desperate for us to win. Wanting to send him back when he's arguably been our player of the season is wild.

Mcneil can't control a football either can the 2 forwards grealish can he's a great outlet for when we're under the cosh pickford boots it long and only grealish can control and hold up the ball without him and mcneil on the left it's back to dyche tactics 10 men behind the ball with no outball terrible football.

In prem standards McNeil is slower than a dead slug. Problem is we have nobody to replace him. Would love replacements this Window but almost impossible to find quality.

Posts like this are so funny to me. I can't wait for next season with no Grealish and we either have McNeil or Jack Harrison starting every game. See how we fare then, and see how many times you even get a hint of excitement from a game.

I’m not convinced Keane pulled the Wolves players hair on purpose. He has a grip of the players shirt with his left hand and looks, to me that he thought he was grabbing the shirt with his right hand too. Only Keane knows the truth but I don’t believe it was violent conduct (if accidental) .
Grealishs 2nd yellow was out of petulance from being so frustrated with how poor the ref was. But fully deserved 2nd yellow.
The refereeing in the self proclaimed best league in the world is atrocious, the standard is the worst I have seen in all my years playing and watching football.

Highlighting a player because he can control a ball from a long kick. Our expectations and standards have dropped somewhat and for £50m lol.
