all central midfielders get cards, so do defenders. Deano had 5 after about 10 games, Fonte now has 5 as does Morgan.
Tackling is a risky business, especially when you have to take one for the team to recover someone else's mistakes.
When Puncheon was playing in CM at MK Dons he got loads, something like 7 yellows and a red in the first half of the season, out of CM he got hardly any.When you tackle hard and contest a lot of ball cards necessarily follow,a lot of refs don't really know what they're doing in our league.
