And then you're on that tightrope and it's very difficult and you've got to be so careful.
Premier League so far, sometimes you can have a moment where you're just chasing a player like Morgan Rodgers and it's just, as he sort of slows up, you can see he puts both hands on his back.
I mean, that's as big a foul or, you know, especially when you're denying a player an opportunity to maybe just shoot.
That is a foul and I think, it didn't even get a foul, I think it's a yellow card, Ash.
Yeah, I totally agree.
You know, it was two hands on Morgan Rodgers' back there and, you know, you look, Morgan Rodgers going through, it's...
The referee, I don't know what position he's in or if he can't see it, but it just looks like a blatant foul.
I think anywhere else on the pitch, if the ball's running out of play and you do that to a player, the player's getting a free kick and the referee could have given him a second yellow.
He was lucky, but he was fantastic today.
He ran that midfield, actually.
Yeah, well, Ashley today said it before we were just talking about it, because obviously he's been playing so well.
When you see someone in training, I think you learn a lot about them.
You get to know what their traits are, their habits, how do they play, what do they do well, what can he improve?
And Ashley just said he's top.
He said he's a fantastic player and he deserves all the plaudits he's getting.
And today you could see it in a midfield, obviously, without Idrissa Ganege, who's important for them.
He's that sort of energy.
He's stepped into those shoes.
You know, you've got a young midfield player playing alongside you in Harrison Armstrong and needs an arm around his back at times, needs to hold his hand, make sure he goes into the right positions.
I just thought he looked like a really established midfielder.
