What planet are some of our professional footballers on when trying to send fellow players into orbit.
I'm referring to the continuing policy of suicidal tackles we see constantly in live games and on TV which surely begs the question - are they part of the mangers strategy / game plan.
If so can they not see that the victim player receives a serious injury, the culprit receives a yellow / red card, the opposition team gain a dead ball or penalty kick advantage and the game can be won or lost because of this.
Some of the more reckless players lunge in sometimes waist high or with two feet horizontal tackles completely missing the ball by wide margins.
Surely when analysing the game on video during training and coaching sessions the managers and indeed the players can see how worthless this policy is giving the opposition a distinct advantage in close call games.
I maybe a bit biased towards my beloved CCFC but I don't see much of this recklessness in our game plan with Jordan Clarke a good example of hard but fair tackling in the majority of cases retrieving the ball cleanly for the next phase of play.
So to all FA, FIFA officials,managers, coaches and players can we please review this situation seriously for the betterment of the game overall and more importantly the paying fans who want to see 22 players remaining on the pitch at all times.
