Maybe this could cause a return of the mullet in terms of the fact, because everyone wants to, like, an accidental hair tug, red card.
So everyone should just get it a little bit long at the back in case that happens.
The Huth Fellaini triggered another great example of Man United managers talking about hair pulls, because that's when Louis van Gaal said that you're only allowed in sex masochism.
Yes!
So not once but twice you've had a tremendously confusing non-context Man United manager quotes on hair pulling.
Clearly there's been some directive this year to referees that any kind of hair pulling, zero tolerance, just get the red card out.
And I feel like a Premier League defender should know that.
We had quite a high profile case with Michael Keane not that long ago and everyone talked about it and there was a whole debate.
And I do think if you're a Premier League defender now who gets paid very well to do that job, you should go into the game knowing I'm actually not allowed to pull someone's hair.
I need to make an effort to not do that.
And you don't need to agree with it to just like, there's a bunch of things we can't say on the radio.
You don't always agree with all of those things, but it's part of your job to know what they are.

It's really easy.
It shouldn't be a difficult thing to get through the day without pulling someone's hair.
There have been some developments in my personal life recently, Max.
I mean, we don't talk that much off the pod anymore.
So, you know, there might be stuff going on that you're not aware of.
I'm sure he'll manage them at some point.
