Wednesday fans seem split on the Carlos issue. I am amazed there are so many still with him. His supporters will say that they have improved in each of his two seasons, but when you look how much money he has spent the season so far has to be classed as a disaster for them. Most of their better performers were there before Carlos arrived, and it sounds like the football they play is pretty uninspiring. If I was paying what they pay for tickets to fund £40K a week wages and £10m transfer fees and watch games in that decrepit stadium, I would want better than Carlos is serving up. Lets hope they keep him on!  Joking apart, we need a local club in the top division and I don't really have any malice towards Wednesday.  What must be hurting their fans must is the shocking thought that the upstart Blades might reach the Promised Land before them.

I respectfully disagree Heman. The double jeopardy leniency rule only applies if the defender was making a genuine attempt to play the ball. Loovens barged Vydra over from behind without even attempting to look like he was trying to play the ball. He had to go. He didn't protest at all. In fairness I think Carlos even accepted that Loovens had to go, but his beef was that later in the game the same foul (he said) was committed on Fletcher and the ref gave nothing. The problem for Carlos is that whereas the Loovens push was clear and obvious, Fletcher had overrun the ball and whether or not he was pushed at all is not so obvious.

What Carlos didnt mention was that Westwood could have gone as well for handling outside his area and arguably got away with one.

When managers complain about referees week after week in a losing streak it looks like desperation.

The bottom line is that he has spent tens of millions and they are performing and getting results way below expectations. I still think they will get into the top 6. They have a lot of good players.
